Pacific Symphony’s annual gala, “A Night in New Orleans,” honored Maestro Carl St.Clair’s 30th Anniversary with the symphony and the philanthropy of the Hal & Jeanette Segerstrom Family – netting $1.845,300 in the process! The BourbonStreet Brass Band (direct from NOLA) led the 410 guests into the Hotel Irvine ballroom for a fabulous gourmet five-course NOLA-inspired repast. Special entertainment, an exciting live auction and dancing to JT & Friends rounded out the amazing affair. Photography Doug Gifford, Kevin Warn

  1. I love the Symphony and the honor of the Segerstroms, my New Orleans and jazz. What a combination! My question in July of 2020 Why would 410 people gather during a pandemic? if I’m mistaken and this was last year please let me know.
    Praying for all of you! 🙏

    1. The event took place earlier in the year before the shutdown.
