Conservatory Gala "Celebrating our Own"
June 9, 2010
“Celebrating Our Own” was the theme of this year’s annual gala at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, honoring the memory of lifelong supporter Caroline H. “Betty” Hume. San Francisco Symphony keyboardist and Conservatory alumnus Robin Sutherland led a special musical performance featuring some two dozen of the school’s most distinguished faculty and alumni, with repertory including a sonata for the flute—Mrs. Hume’s favorite instrument. Alongside various tributes to Mrs. Hume’s life and legacy, the evening included a cocktail reception in the Conservatory atrium and an elegant dinner next door in the grand tent, catered by McCall Associates with décor by Robert Fountain Event Designs.
