metro Gala Celebration Chamber Soloists group enjoys a grand evening for its inaugural concert. A gala strolling dinner reception was held Oct. 7 at the Bloomfield Hills home of Bernard and Barbara Stollman following the inaugural concert of the newly formed Chamber Soloists of Detroit (formerly the Pro Mozart Society of Greater Detroit). The concert was generously sponsored by Dr. Stanley H. Levy to honor the memory of his late wife, Rita S. Levy, a lifelong and beloved patron of the arts. The concert featured acclaimed pianist Pauline Martin of West Bloomfield and violinist Yoonshin Song, the newly appoint- ed concertmaster of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, performing works by Janacek, Saint-Saens, Carter and Brahms to a full house and an enthusiastic audience. President Gerald Stollman and Leila Stollman of West Bloomfield, Bernard and Barbara Stollman, Teryl Asher of Bloomfield Hills, Leonard Borman of Birmingham, Sylvelin Bouwman of Eastpointe and Ida D. Mucciante of Farmington Hills participated in the phe- nomenal success of the inaugural concert and reception. Pro Mozart Society of Greater Detroit was founded by Marguerite Kozenn Chajes in 1959.
