Webster defines " treasure" as "something of great worth or value",a "collection of precious things". There could be no better word to describe the San Diego Symphony.

I had the great fortune of attending the Jacobs Materworks series at our own Copley Symphony Hall and it was such a marvelous production. When one thinks of San Diego, I suppose they think about the amount sunshine , the beaches, the raw beauty of nature and these are just a few of  the fabulous traits of our great city. But you just haven't lived until you attend a performance of one of the wonderful and magnificent symphony productions at Symphony Hall. Click here is see a virtual tour of Symphony Hall .

San Diego Copley Syphony HallSan Diego's Symphony Hall opened as the Fox Theater in November 1929, some twenty years after the first concert was given by the San Diego Symphony Orchestra. The luxurious interior of the concert hall is of the ornate French Rococo style. It was built as a lavish movie and vaudeville theater. By the mid-1980's the San Diego Symphony orchestra had its own home there in what was renamed the Copley Symphony Hall.

Nuvi Mehta gave the concert comments prior to and during the various musical piece presentations and he was a real joy to listen to with a  powerful and melodic voice with marvelous intonation. Nuvi also gives speeches on the symphony itself as well as the masterpieces , as interpreted by Jahja Ling our masterful and world renowned Conductor. I felt almost exhausted myself watching him perform his magic in the Jacobs Materworks. He puts his heart, soul and whole body into the direction of some of the most magnificent musical talent I have ever heard perform. Jahja Ling ,our very own maestro is achieving international recognition in musical excellence as well as  cultural leadership and within minutes of hearing his magical interpretations,you will clearly understand why.

There is so much to write about this wonderful cultural treasure here in San Diego. If you would like to know more please use the link provided here ,The Copley Symphony Hall to read more about this extraordinary treasure, right here in our city that awaits your visit to experience magnificent musical magic. I promise you , you will be enthralled!

William- Why hello there.....I was wondering where you were.  Last I heard you were with relatives out here in the Desert.  I love the Symphony.....and enjoyed many concerts overseas.  I haven't seen the San Diego one, but I am sure it is wonderful :)

William - Long time, no see, my friend.  I'm a big fan of the symphony and hate to admit that I've never been there.  Don't be a stranger my friend.

Hello Kathy,

I did spend a lot of time just having fun the past 4 or 5 weeks. It was during that time that I re-discovered the Symphony and as bloggers do, had to write about the wonderful experience. It was month of also re-discovering myself, many of the the other cultural things that I had forsaken like the theater,the Getty ,etc by just being too busy. My priorities got a little re-shift and I do in fact feel rejuvenated and enthusiastic to share so much more with my friends ( of which you are very much one)  my colleagues, clients and neighbors. A new revitalized me awaits no longer! :-)

Hi Linda, Thank you so much, I have thought of you as well and well meaning as I was, I just did not log in and remind you that I was missing talking to you and my other friends here. Glad to be back, enthusiastic to share some things and excited that the market has somewhat improved for me. Please know you were missed as well!
