Musica Palo Alto

Musica Palo Alto is the producing arm of the Palo Alto College music program. PAC's musical ensembles bring life to iconic events such as PACfest, Pumpkin Patch, the Annual Jazz Festival, and Winter Wonderland, transforming these gatherings into unforgettable experiences and a true source of pride for our community.

Dedicated to crafting exceptional music productions, Musica Palo Alto focuses on enriching San Antonio's Southside through the power of sound. Our commitment to Mariachi, Marching Mariachi, and Jazz not only showcases the talent of our students but also serves as a vital platform for exploring and celebrating cultural identities and stories.
