San Francisco Symphony Remove performer from this event
San Francisco Symphony, located in one of the world's most beautiful bays, exploded in population during the 1849 Gold Rush. It quickly became the trading, entertainment, and arts center of the Far West, with a solid tradition of German-style choral societies and a Symphony Society.

Mark J Inouye is one of a very select group of trumpeters equally at home in the worlds of jazz and classical music. Currently he is the principal trumpeter of the San Francisco Symphony, but has also held principal positions with the Houston and Charleston Symphonies.
