The 2006-2007 Season
Ushers in Some Exciting News!
Artistic Director and Philharmonic Conductor, Olivia
Gutoff, announced at the Annual Meeting of the general membership of
MCYO that Margaret Makris has pledged a $50,000 endowment in memory of
her husband, composer Andreas Makris. Mr.
Makris had been commissioned to write a piece, entitled Antithesis,
for MCYO’s 50th anniversary concert. Rostropovich commissioned
more works from Makris than from any other composer. “In my opinion,
Makris is a great composer,” Rostropovich remarked in 1978. The purpose
of the endowment is to provide continuing support to MCYO’s scholarship
programs.
