RIP Mr. Henry. He sounds like a wonderful supporter and fan of classical music in Los Angeles.
Yes, unlike New York whose billionaires no longer care.
I suspect that with Mr Henry’s great love of music and education he will have made some provision for a continuation of his support in his will. It would make for an even more befitting legacy of a such a key figure in the LA music scene. RIP
So what did he leave them behind?
