Pacific Symphony

Cathedrals of Sound - An evening of awe and inspiration: Bathe in waves of sound -- including the mighty William J. Gillespie Concert Organ -- as Respighi's orchestration of stained-glass windows comes to life! Then, the rich, sonorous voices of the Norbertine Fathers, performing the chants that inspired Duruflé's Requiem. Led by Music Director Carl St.Clair, the Symphony is recognized as an outstanding orchestra, presenting more than 100 concerts a year, plus a rich array of educational and community programs. Pacific Symphony offers a perfect night out for every taste! Programs at the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall include great classical masterworks, pops concerts featuring big names in entertainment, chamber music, Saturday morning concerts for children and parents, and a holiday performance of Handel's "Messiah." Founded in 1978, Pacific Symphony is the largest orchestra formed in the United States in the last 40 years and the third largest in California.
