Comprised of over eighty Princeton University undergraduate and graduate students, the Sinfonia presents four concerts every year. Dr. Ruth Ochs, a senior lecturer in the Department of Music, is in her twenty-fourth season conducting the ensemble.

Tickets to this concert ($16 general admission/$6 students, inclusive of all fees) are available at tickets.princeton.edu, by phone during afternoon business hours or in the lobby of Richardson Auditorium starting 45 minutes prior to the performance.
