Music director is hospitalised for the holiday season
mainThe Rockford Symphony Orchestra has lost its longstanding music director to an unspecified accident.
It says Steven Larsen was ‘injured in an accident last week and is recuperating in a hospital’.
A guest conductor has been called in for the Holiday Pops.
Larsen is a past Illinois Conductor of the Year. This is his 28th season as music director in Rockford, Ill.
Be careful out there.
Illinois has a “Conductor of the Year”? Isn’t that just a euphemism for “Mafia Approved”?
tommy guns in violin cases out there too
That’s really a dumb thing to say.
Thanks for your understanding and support, Doug
Steve, I’ll be seeing a group of our Ridgewood classmates on Friday. If you don’t mind, I’ll pass the news on and they can send get well wishes to you. Hope your recovery is a speedy one.
