Orchestra, scammed of $500,000 faces dim future
mainHalf a million has gone missing at the Peninsula Symphony in Palo Alto. The police have been called in. The executive director, Steve Carlton, is no longer at his desk. And, while the season will start on schedule, the prospects do not look bright. The orch has an annual budget of $600,000. More here.
I blush to confess that when I first saw the headline, I thought “Minnesota?”
Me too.
No, in Minneapolis it’s the Orchestra Hall remodeling, costing one hundred times as much.
Mr. Brinton, I thought the EXACT SAME THING!
