Nowhere was this more evident than in two recent and quite remarkable announcements: the Eastman Kodak Company’s $10 million commitment toward the Eastman Theatre Renovation and Expansion Project (upon completion, our main perform- ing hall will be called “Kodak Hall at Eastman Theatre”), and the Davenport- Hatch Foundation’s $2.9 million commitment to building the new 230-seat Hatch Recital Hall in our new addition.

  • EASTMAN NOTES JUNE 2004 Draft: Final Date: 6/15/2004 INSIDE
    NOTES JUNE 2004 A MAGAZINE FOR ALUMNI OF THE EASTMAN SCHOOL OF MUSIC FROM THE EDITOR The right “stu≠” Dear Eastman Alumni: We like Notes’ new look, and it seems you do too. Response has been unani- mously favorable; perhaps we should consider a Steve Boerner–David Cowles NOTES presidential ticket for 2008. I’d vote for them; these two artists made “Notes Volume 22, Number 2 nouveau” a pleasure, and I’m glad the pleasure was conveyed in the magazine June 2004 itself. I write the stuff, but they (and our photographers) make it look good! We also had a tremendous response to our “Eastman Alumni on CD” feature; Editor see pages 33¬34. And enough of you commented on different editorial aspects of David Raymond Notes (not always favorably) that we have a “Letters to the Editor” section, which Assistant editor may be a first for us. Christina Casey This issue of Notes is admittedly filled with history, but Susan Conkling’s re- Contributing writers minder of the great women who shaped both American music and Eastman, and Martial Bednar Amy Blum Paul Burgett’s reminder of four black composers who Christine Corrado played an important part in Eastman history, are stories Contributing photographers worth telling. As is the story of the success of Howard Kurt Brownell Hanson’s Merry Mount at the Met in 1934—a remarkable Gelfand-Piper Photography event, when you think about it. I should add a special Bob Klein Photography word of thanks here to David Peter Coppen, the Sibley Carlos Ortiz Don Ver Ploeg/VP Communications Library Archivist, who is always helpful with providing Amy Vetter historical photographs and other materials for Notes, but Photography coordinator outdid himself for these three articles.

What many once knew as the Swan Street parking lot was a small triangular parcel of land—the last piece of real estate George needed to complete his school and theater, at least as he had originally imagined it back in 1922. But the price the owner demanded was in George’s mind too high, and so the theater project went ahead without that property. In the ensuing years, the University of Rochester purchased the lot, and we are now completing the second phase of our Eastman Theatre Renovation and Expansion Project.
