the conservatory.
Music by each of the four birthday
composers will be sprinkled through-
out the 17 concerts that make up
the series. The all-birthday concert,
scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Monday, June
23, at Temple Beth El, features music
by each of the four.
The most familiar music at the
birthday concert, at least to Detroit-
area audiences, is Bolcom's song cycle
titled Cabaret Songs, written to poems
by his longtime collaborator, Arnold
Weinstein. The Pulitzer Prize-winning
composer will be at the piano as his
wife, soprano Joan Morris, makes her
GLCMF debut.
Cantor Rachel Gottlieb Kalmowitz
of Temple Beth El makes her festival
debut at the June 23 concert, perform-
ing Harbison's Mirabai Songs. The con-
cert also includes Corigliano's Sonata
for Violin and Piano, performed by Ida
Kavafian and Jeremy Denk.
Making their Detroit-area debut in a
trio will be violinist Nicholas Kendall
and cellist Sara Sant'Ambrogio, who
join pianist James Tocco, the festival's
artistic director, in Tower's string trio
For Daniel.
Look for the three Shouse
Foundation-sponsored groups — the
Cecelia String Quartet, the Hausmann
String Quartet and Trio Lunaire — at
the Preludes, scheduled for 45 minutes
before most weekday concerts.
Special Preludes will take place at
two of the Saturday concerts. On June
21, pianists Edward Auer and Junghwa
Moon Auer will present an "anno-
tated interview;' titled "Approaching
French Piano Music;' to include a
performance of Maurice Ravel's Ma
Mere l'Oye ("Mother Goose Suite").
The June 28 Prelude will feature Tocco
and University of Michigan musicolo-
gist Mark Clague discussing "Bach
Meets Bessie: Milhaud and Gershwin
Experiment with the Blues:'
Many Jewish volunteers and con-
tributors have been vital to the suc-
cess of the Great Lakes Chamber
Music Festival in its 15-year history.
Among them are Alan and Marianne
Schwartz, Helen Rowin, Gwen Weiner,
Sandi Reitelman and Raymond
Rosenthal.
Beverly Baker, recently honored
as Israel Activist of the Year by the
Jewish Community Relations Council
of Metropolitan Detroit, has been a
mainstay of the festival. This year,
Kendall is the recipient of the 2008
Beverly Franzblau Baker Young Artist
Chair, while Sant'Ambrogio was
awarded the Paul Katz Cello Chair in
Sun.-Thurs.

The June 23 birthday concert will
be performed in memory of former
Detroiter and pianist Ruth Laredo, a
staple of the GLCMF until her death
in 2005.

memory of Morris Baker.
The June 23 birthday concert
is sponsored by Rayna Kogan in
memory of her sister, internation-
ally acclaimed pianist Ruth Laredo.
Laredo, who died in 2005, was a huge
supporter of the Great Lakes festival,
Tocco wrote in a tribute to his long-
time friend:
"One of Ruth's most distinguishing
characteristics — one that in fact we
shared and talked about quite a bit
— was a fierce sense of pride in being
a Detroiter.
"When the idea of the Great Lakes
Festival took hold, I wanted it to be
not just another music festival, but a
celebration of our city and its culture.
And I knew the first pianist I wanted
to invite was Ruth Laredo"
Each year until her death, Laredo
performed at the festival, in solo
recitals and chamber music, and gave
master classes.
"She lives on so strongly in me:'
Kogan said. "I would go to concerts
and form my opinion, and then I
would call Ruthie and confer, compare
our opinions. I still do it, in my mind,
even today.
"I wanted to keep her memory alive
for the festival." ❑
