The 2022 Dallas Symphony Orchestra Gala’s details have just been revealed.
Traditionally the first of the fall season’s formal events, the black-tie fundraiser will take place at the Meyerson on Saturday, October 1.
Co-Chairing the Gala will be author Donna Arp Weitzman and her commercial real estate icon husband, Herb Weitzman.
According to Dallas Symphony Orchestra Ross Perot President/CEO Kim Noltemy, “The Weitzmans have shown a great deal of dedication to the community and the DSO. We are grateful that they will lead this year’s event, which is sure to be a great success.”
Returning this year as the Gala Concert Presenting Sponsor will be Capital One.
As Capital One President of Financial Services Sanjiv Yajnik explained, “We are committed to investing in the communities where we live and work, and the arts are a huge component. From the established Young Strings program to the rapidly growing Kim Noltemy Young Musicians program, the Dallas Symphony Orchestra’s initiatives are fostering a love for music in our communities. They are nurturing leaders of tomorrow with the skills, tools and resources they need for a vibrant future.”
In addition to a pre-concert reception, a seated dinner and an after-party, the highlight of the evening will be mezzo-soprano Susan Graham and baritone Thomas Hampson joining DSO Music Director Fabio Luisi and the DSO to perform selections from Franz Lehár’s “The Merry Widow.”
In addition to the beautiful music and dining, the evening is a true fashion experience with a bounty of designer gowns and tuxedos.
