Rochester Phil Rakes In The Cash

Upstate New York’s Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra has set an in-house fundraising record for the second year in a row, taking in nearly $2.2 million for the 2006 fiscal year. “At a time when many orchestras in the country are posting deficits, the RPO, flush from its fundraising success, made another kind of record this week, a recording of Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue and Concerto in F.”
