San Francisco Symphony celebrated its 101st birthday on September 19, 2012. Violinist Joshua Bell joined Michael Tilson Thomas and San Francisco Symphony Orchestra on stage at Davies Symphony Hall for the occasion. Festivities included the gala concert, three dinners, and late-night parties. The opening night fanfare not only welcomed a new symphony concert season but also honored longtime supporters, Marcia and John Goldman. 

It’s a Red Carpet Life … on KICU TV36 captured the fashions and met Mr. Bell backstage for a chat about his opening-night style; watch the video:
