Help us welcome Ludovic Morlot as he takes the stage in his first concert as the Seattle Symphony’s Music Director. Your Gala evening begins with a pre-performance cocktail party, followed by the grand start to the 2011–2012 concert season: star cellist Joshua Roman, a Seattle favorite, will join Ludovic Morlot in a program that nods to Morlot’s French roots and culminates in Ravel’s Boléro. The festivities continue with a post-performance formal dinner in the Samuel & Althea Stroum Grand Lobby.
Gala packages start at $500 per person and include concert ticket, pre-concert cocktails, champagne intermission, formal dinner and dessert.
Those who purchase Gala Packages at the Patron level and above will receive an invitation to the on-stage cocktail reception with Ludovic on Thursday, September 15, as a benefit
