The Plainfield Symphony's gala at the Plainfield Country Club Saturday kicks off its 100th season. |
A grand evening of entertainment is planned for guests of the Plainfield Symphony's Centennial Showcase Gala Saturday evening (September 21).
The event formally kicks off the Plainfield Symphony's 100th season and is being held at the Plainfield Country Club, where attendees will dine and dance to the music of Peter Duchin and his orchestra.
Duchin is an heir to the big band tradition and has been entertaining audiences since 1962 -- having logged well over 6,000 performances.
Attendees will also enjoy cocktails with a silent auction and a live auction with comedian Joey Novick as auctioneer.
But the high spot of the evening will be the honoring of people and organizations for their contributions to the Plainfield Symphony's continued success.
This year's honorees are --
- Andrea and Ron West for support from the Community;
- Bobby Gregory's NJ Galvanizing & Tinning for its Corporate support; and
- The Plainfield Foundation for continued support by a nonprofit.
The event is black tie and runs from 7:00 PM to Midnight. Tickets are $165 per person, with premier seating (near the dais) at $750.
Music Director Charles Prince has planned an exciting year of music for the PSO's centennial -- including a performance of Mahler's Symphony No. 2 (The Resurrection) at the season's closing concert and John Philip Souza selections at the season's first concert. (Souza's first performance after leaving the United State Marine Corps was here in Plainfield in 1892.)
