San Diego, CA - August 15: Violinist David Buckley has been the co-concertmaster of the La Jolla Symphony for almost 20 years and also is a regular performer with the Camarada chamber music ensemble (his wife, Beth Ross-Buckley is Camarada’s artistic director). One interesting fact about him: Dr. Buckley is employed by the Radiology Medical Group and has served as chief and vice-chief of radiology at Scripps Mercy Hospital. So, he spends much of his time off work playing music. He was deeply affected by the trip the Camarada took to South America earlier this summer. Both Camarada and La Jolla Symphony have concerts during the fall. (Nelvin C. Cepeda / The San Diego Union-Tribune)
