Why:
Proceeds from the gala benefit SFGC’s music education program, community outreach initiatives, and need-based scholarships. Financial aid enables 35% of choristers to participate in the Girls Chorus. Scholarship support helps SFGC maintain its commitment to providing the best possible performance and educational opportunities to girls and young women from all cultural and socio-economic backgrounds.
Who'll Be There:
Inspired by jazz guitar great, Django Reinhardt, and Paris of the 1920s and ‘30s, guest artists Le Jazz Hot continue the tradition of fine French gypsy jazz performed on string instruments. They’ll perform on their own, and with Chorissima, the premiere ensemble of SFGC. You should be there, too!
