American Friends of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra and the West Coast Chairmen’s Council hosted an elegant evening at the Peninsula Hotel, with a recital by The Richter String Quartet of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra. Welcoming guests was AFIPO Board member, Marilyn Ziering, who spoke on behalf of the Chairmen’s Council. She explained that most countries have one ambassador, while Israel is proud to have 110 emissaries that travel the world sharing their beautiful music. Because of the valuable patronage of the Los Angeles guests and “friends” of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, Mrs. Ziering said that the Orchestra can continue its journey as Israel’s finest cultural ambassador. The Los Angeles patrons support will benefit the IPO KeyNote Education and Outreach Program.

Special thanks to the benefit evening Sponsors Helgard and Irwin Field, Ruth and Charles Gold, Joyce and Mel Keefer, Ruth Ziegler, the Ziering Family Foundation and Co-Sponsors Lora Fremont, Suzanne and Ric Kayne and the Jewish Community Foundation of Los Angeles.
