Autumn is here, which means theaters, art galleries, museums and symphonies are kicking off their new fall seasons.

To help focus our attention on all that's going in San Diego's art scene, KPBS Midday Edition asked three local arts writers to pick out some fall highlights.

Longtime arts critic James Chute discussed the changes happening at the San Diego Symphony now that its conductor and music director Jahja Ling is getting ready to leave.
