  • Berkeley Symphony Biography
    Berkeley Symphony Biography Berkeley Symphony is unique among American orchestras: founded in 1969 in the intellectual and artistic nexus of Berkeley, California; led by the restlessly innovative Music Director Joana Carneiro and Executive Director René Mandel, an actively performing violinist; committed to premiering and commissioning new music, including a disproportionate amount of music written by women; and sustained by the supportive musical environment of Berkeley, the East Bay, and the San Francisco Bay Area. From the outset, the people behind Berkeley Symphony’s culture and programming were attuned to the culturally diverse people and the heady creative climate of their home city. Thomas Rarick, a protégé of the great English maestro Sir Adrian Boult, founded the orchestra in 1969 as the Berkeley Promenade Orchestra. Reflecting the spirit of the times, musicians performed in street dress and at unusual locations such as the University Art Museum. When Kent Nagano became the music director of the orchestra in 1978, he charted a new course by offering innovative programming that included a number of rarely performed 20th-century works and numerous premieres. The renamed Berkeley Symphony Orchestra gained an international reputation for its adventurous programming, and became known for premiering the music of international composers and showcasing young local talents. During the 30 years he served as music director, Nagano established an international reputation as a gifted interpreter of both the operatic and symphonic repertoire. Nagano stepped down from his post at Berkeley Symphony in 2008, after his 30th anniversary season. In January 2009, Portuguese conductor Joana Carneiro became the orchestra’s third Music Director in its 40-year history.
