The Cafieros have undertaken to introduce new features to the summer program to assure not only that Meadow Brook continues to grow as a cultural resource, but also that it is responsive to the changing tastes of people in all phases of community life. Their leadership has inspired the dedicated and continuous work of the Executive Committee.

Festival '74 is no exception, offering a complete spectrum of the world's most acclaimed musical artists. Again this year, Vladimir Ashkenazy has given guidance to the selection of the classical program. In addition, this summer features the best of the orchestral pops; an exciting and diversified series of popular entertainers; The National Ballet, one of America's leading ballet companies; and a special week of jazz.

29 The Detroit Symphony Orchestra

The Detroit Symphony Orchestra was founded in 1914, and at present consists of 97 members. The Orchestra enjoys a reputation of undisputed excellence, as is evidenced by its many invitations to perform outside of Detroit. In past years repeated performances have been given in such august places as Carnegie Hall, before the United Nations, and at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Perform ing Arts in Washington, D. C. The Orchestra is the resident Symphony at the Meadow Brook Music Festival and at the Worcester Festival in Massachusetts. The roster of great performers who have appeared with the Detroit Symphony includes such legendary names as Richard Strauss, Georges Enesco, Rachmaninoff, Victor Herbert, Prokofiev, Mitropoulos, Robert Casadesus, and Stravinsky, and contemporary artists such as Rubinstein, Heifetz, Stern, Serkin, Mischakoff, Oistrakh, and Horowitz. Former conductors of the Orchestra were Weston Gales, , , Franco Ghione, Karl Krueger, , and . The rising young Italian conductor, Aldo Ceccato, who made his Meadow Brook debut in the summer of 1973, became Principal Conductor of the Detroit Symphony last fall, and was named Music Director of the Symphony in May, 1974. In addition to its regular Thursday and Saturday ev~ning concerts in Ford Auditorium, the Orchestra has diversified its activities to bring its music to a larger audience in the community - as well as to audiences in out-state Michigan. In Detroit, these activities include the Sunday afternoon Kresge Omnibus Family Concerts series, a Friday evening "Zodiac" series • new last fall and designed to appeal to students, mods, and under 30's, the immensely popular Friday morning NBD Coffee Concerts, and the 32 The Pride of Meadow Brook
