Your Guide to April Events at La Jolla Music Society

If you’re looking to pack your month with something a little more soulful (and a lot more fun), the April events at La Jolla Music Society are a total vibe. We’re talking ukulele orchestras, world-class jazz, global music stars, piano prodigies—and even a night dedicated to sharks. Yes, sharks.

British Humor Meets Strings: Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain

Kick things off with pure joy as the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain lands at Balboa Theatre. Their 40th anniversary tour is a cheeky musical sprint from ABBA to Nirvana, all delivered with dry British wit and serious charm.
