The residency is a vision of Philharmonic Society President & Artistic Director Tommy Phillips and Cal Performances Executive and Artistic Director Jeremy Geffen and is made possible by major funding from longtime California arts enthusiasts and philanthropists Maria Manetti Shrem from the San Francisco Bay Area and Elizabeth Segerstrom from Orange County. The extraordinary level of generosity and support from Manetti Shrem and Segerstrom has been instrumental for both organizations’ artistic endeavors and their missions to bring world-renowned artists and musical excellence to California residents.
