In the spring of 1951 there was no beautiful “Dorothy Chandler Pavilion” to showcase the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra. The Orchestra, now one of the most famous in the world, held great promise for increasing the cultural life in the City of Los Angeles. Enter a small unique group of civic minded, internationally oriented, women who appreciated music, including Beryl Danielson, Eleanor Wilson, and Violet Wightman, who had a dream of founding an organization whose focus was to support the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra. In an effort to reach out to the international community represented by the presence of the Consular Corps stationed in Los Angeles, the first “International Night” was created and the International Committee was born.
