OLA is an ensemble of musician-ambassadors dedicated to celebrating the shared narrative of the Angeleno experience through transformative collisions of art, architecture, and music. We are passionate about programming that celebrates Los Angeles community and creates more connected and empathetic citizens. Our venue is the city itself; we perform in iconic LA neighborhoods and cultural landmarks to bring relevant orchestral music to every Angeleno. We draw upon the great art and artists of Los Angeles to create musical experiences that entertain, enliven, and inspire.

WE BELIEVE

Every person deserves access to great art

Great art can be locally-sourced

Artists have a responsibility to care for their community

An orchestra’s identity, artists, and repertoire should be as diverse as its city

The orchestral concert experience can be both thought-provoking and entertaining
