gerber, E. Partos and P. Ben-
Haim.

ence, he served . in the Israeli
Defense Army where he or-
ganized and conducted the

phony Orchestra, which was

Israeli military units, but with
civilians as well, who flocked
to hear their concerts. Mishory
later studied with Pierre Mon-
teux.
Presently on leave from the
Kol Israel and Tel Aviv Sym-
phony Orchestra, he served in
these organizations both as con-
certmaster and conductor. He

chestra, the Vienna Radio Or-
chestra, and London BBC. He
