ATLANTA SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA SECOND ANNUAL SYMPHONY GALA SET FOR
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 2012

EVENING TO FEATURE PERFORMANCE BY BROADWAY STAR BERNADETTE PETERS

Proceeds To Benefit the Orchestra And Its Education and Community Engagement Programs

The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra will host its second annual Symphony Gala on Saturday, February 18, 2012, at the Woodruff Arts Center in Atlanta. The evening will include a performance by Tony Award-winner Bernadette Peters with members of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. Proceeds will benefit the Orchestra and its Education and Community Engagement programs.

Patron guests will begin their evening at 6:00 p.m. with a pre-concert cocktail reception in the Stent Atrium at the High Museum of Art. At 7:30 p.m., Ms. Peters — who recently appeared in the Broadway revival of Follies, and will guest-star on the new mid-season NBC Broadway drama, Smash — will perform with members of the Orchestra in Atlanta Symphony Hall.

Following the concert, patron guests will enjoy a seated dinner, catered by Legendary Partners, in the Taylor Lobby of the High Museum of Art. Throughout the evening, patrons will have the opportunity to bid on luxury items — including jewelry, roundtrip tickets on Delta Air Lines, and a fabulous international travel package — at a live auction.

After dinner, patron guests will enjoy an after party — featuring cocktails, coffee and desserts, music provided by Atlanta Party Band, and dancing — in the Stent Atrium. Tickets to the Symphony Gala after-party will be available to young professionals (ages 25-40) for $45.

The evening's attire is Black Tie.

Proceeds from the 2011 Symphony Gala will benefit the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and its Education and Community Engagement Programs, which include initiatives such as the Atlanta Symphony Youth Orchestra and Talent Development Program, as well as support partnerships with local community institutions and create a wide variety of musical and educational experiences for citizens of all ages.
