Sp ecial Guest

The Detroit Symphony Orchestra
announced last week that Israeli-born
violinist Itzhak Perlman will serve as
principal guest conductor of the DSO,
beginning in the 2001-2002 season.
His three-year appointment will
include conducting three weeks of
concerts each season (for some perfor-
mances he will act as both conductor
and soloist), as well as participating in
DSO education programs, including
working with DSO youth orchestras,
metro Detroit students and the
Detroit High School for the
Performing Arts.
"Classical music should be part of a
child's education," Perlman told the
Jewish News in a recent interview. "We
need more programs that are innova-
tive, where the teachers are inspired."
"It is extremely gratifying," noted
Peter Cummings, DSO board chair-
man, "that an artist of [his] stature
believes in what the Detroit
Symphony Orchestra is doing, not
only in our performances at Orchestra
Hall, but also in our educational pro-
grams that benefit both the city of
Detroit and the surrounding region."
Perlman made his Detroit conduct-

ing debut with the DSO last
November, leading works by Schubert,
Dvorak, Prokofiev and Bach.
Following that, said Emil J. Kang,
interim president of the DSO, "there
was an overwhelming response from
the musicians to have [him] immedi-
ately re-engaged, and of exploring the
possibility of him having an official
conducting experience."
The admiration was mutual. "My
experience with the Detroit
Symphony has been very musically
satisfying," said Perlman. "They have
a wonderful sound, which for me is
one of the most important qualities of
an orchestra. I am really very excited
about the prospect of being able to
work with them on a regular basis."
Perlman, who has made more than
30 appearances with the DSO, first
played with the orchestra as a result of a
competition he entered in New York in
1964. Part of the prize was the opportu-
nity to play with a major orchestra.
"That brings very fond memories,
and every time I come to Detroit, I
have a terrific time," Perlman told the
Jewish News.
