Out & About: DSOL Presentation Ball
Forty-four Dallas Symphony Orchestra debutantes took their bows at the 38th-annual DSO League Presentation Ball on Feb. 10.
The debutantes took center stage at the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center to do the Texas Dip — an all the way to the floor full court bow.
Kristin Cordiak chaired the event, and Margaret and Barry Hancock were the honorary chairs.
“To the debutantes and Honor Guard being presented tonight, my greatest wish is you remember and carry these moments this evening and from the past season as the precious memories of family, friendship, and music that they are, always,” Cordiak said. “Please continue as the philanthropic leaders of tomorrow as we celebrate you and your families tonight.”
A formal seated dinner and music and dancing followed the presentation.
The Presentation Ball, which was first held in 1987, is an annual tradition and the largest fundraiser for the Dallas Symphony Orchestra.
