In its first professional album released by Centaur Records,
and distributed internationally by Naxos, several of the UC Davis
Symphony Orchestra’s live-concert recordings now appear alongside
the Munich Radio Orchestra. The performances were
conducted by Professor Christian Baldini, music director
and conductor of the UC Davis Symphony
Orchestra and the Barbara K. Jackson Chair in
Orchestral Conducting.
The UC Davis Symphony Orchestra (UCDSO) is committed to
presenting repertoire from different periods and styles at the
highest artistic level. Members also pride themselves in
performing works by students, faculty, and visiting composers.
Established in 1959, the orchestra has performed in many cities
in Northern California, as well as in Australia, Canada, France,
French Polynesia, and Spain. As of 2013, the UCDSO has grown
to approximately 110 members and is a resident ensemble of
Jackson Hall at the Mondavi Center. In August, 2021, the UC Davis
Symphony Orchestra will have an album released on Centaur
Records, becoming one of a handful of university orchestras in
the world to release their recordings professionally on CD and
all digital platforms. Visit this link for
