The California Philharmonic Orchestra, often abbreviated as Cal Phil, is a musical orchestra based within the American state of California.
The Orchestra performed twenty years of outdoor summer concerts between 1996 and 2016, but then discontinued the practice.[1] Beginning in 2011 the Orchestra performed at the Santa Anita Racetrack under the musical directorship of Victor Vener,[1] the organization's founder.[2] Eventually, the California Philharmonic with the California Philharmonic Chorale -- popularly known as the Cal Phil Chorale -- made Walt Disney Concert Hall their home for their regular summer concerts.
