[No title] Skillfully crafting a positive lyrical foil to the violence and materialism of their hip-hop peers, LA Symphony (which represents the City of Angels from East L.A. and Long Beach to downtown and the Westside) pulls back the veil and reveals what's inside the heads of these urban street poets. Finally, with contractual restraints shed, LA Symphony compiled recent material for the 2003 disc The End Is Now, featuring the prophetic single "Gonna Be Alright." The End Is Now ultimately set the table for the group's new disc, Disappear Here, which is their first commercially released album written and recorded as one cohesive whole. LA Symphony overcame the many road bumps by staying true to the underground and pushing for new horizons, but ironically, it was their differences that provided the spark to make Disappear Here their best album yet. www.cbn.com /cbnmusic/artists/LA_Symphony.aspx   (996 words)

La Jolla Symphony & Chorus But in those early years, the La Jolla Civic Orchestra (as it was first known) remained small, and Nicoloff--a gifted painter and gourmet cook--struggled to make it succeed. The proposal was made for the department to join forces with the existing community orchestra, and out of that partnership a new ensemble was born, eventually re-named the La Jolla Civic-University Symphony Orchestra.

While the group was putting together their third album, Buhloone Mindstate, Paul and De La had the idea to create a fake album, filled with fake songs and give that to the label as a way to trick potential bootleggers into thinking this was the real deal.
