11 monic Orchestra Under the able management of Mr. A. M. See and Mr. T. Llyle Keith the Philharmonic Orchestra has completed one of the finest Rochester concert seasons on record; presenting the best of soloists and concert ensembles to Rochester and the student body of the East¬ man School of Music. Under the musical direction of Jose Iturbi, with Guy Fraser Harrison assisting, The Philharmonic Orchestra presented twelve evening concerts between the dates of November 2, 1939 and March 21, 1940; and conducted two tours of the Northeastern and Eastern states. Although the war in Europe prevented the appearance of a few soloists, able artists were procured to fill out an impressive series of programs. During the season the following soloists were heard: Argetinita Dancers - - November 2 Bartlett-Robinson - - - February 8 Guy Fraser Harrison - - November 30 Amparo and Jose Iturbi - - February 29 Don Cossacks - - - December 14 Mischa Elman Piatigorsky.January 11 The Philharmonic toured the Northeastern States in December and presented concerts at Mount Holyoke College; Smith College; Springfield, Mass.; Newburg, N. Y.; and Saratoga Springs, N. Y. Again in the spring the orchestra was sponsored on a tour, ap¬ pearing in Ashtabula, Ohio; Columbus, Ohio; Wilkes-Barre, Pa.; and Allentown, Pa. Music lovers who have been unable to hear the concerts presented during the regular season may now enjoy the Phil¬ harmonic ' s performances through the medium of Victor records. During March the orchestra recorded several numbers that will in the near future be placed on the market. [77] March 21
