    SATURDAY APR 1, 2017 |

    The Sarasota Orchestra announced a leadership gift to underwrite enhanced planning activities for a new concert hall made by long-time Orchestra patron and philanthropist Ernest Kretzmer, in loving memory of Alisa Kretzmer. The donation will be utilized to fund the planning process of a permanent home for the Sarasota Orchestra. The Sarasota Orchestra’s Facility Task Force is actively working in parallel with the Bayfront 20:20 and Sarasota Bay Planning Organization (SBPO) initiatives. Last year, the Orchestra briefed Orchestra and community stakeholders on the results of a needs analysis and market study. “The Phase 1 Facility Needs Assessment documented the urgency for a dedicated facility for the Orchestra to enhance schedule, availability and flexibility, more rehearsals in the performance space, improved acoustics, and additional space for education programs and staff,” said Anne Folsom Smith, Chair of the Orchestra Board.
