Symphony Supper Club

A Special Event Benefitting the California Symphony

What’s Interesting About This Event

  • Join host Artistic and Music Director Donato Cabrera at Berkeley’s iconic Claremont Hotel as we transport you back to the golden era of supper clubs, for a night filled with glamour, elegance, and timeless music.

  • Mix and mingle at a festive cocktail reception with Donato and California Symphony musicians.

  • Savor a 3-course gourmet dinner with hosted wine by Teneral Cellars and open bar.

  • Sway to sizzling hot music by international jazz sensation, multi-instrumentalist, and star of Postmodern Jukebox Gunhild Carling.

  • As the dinner program concludes, enjoy the seductive, swinging stylings of the Gunhild Carling Band in the Meritage Room, overlooking the twinkling lights of the San Francisco Bay.  

It all adds up to an unforgettable can’t-miss party for Bay Area culture-lovers, philanthropists, and movers and shakers, with proceeds benefitting the musicians of the California Symphony and music programs for our community that uplift, inspire, and champion social justice.
