PHILHARMONIC 'WORKSHOP' OPEN TO ALL COUNTIANS A report by Frieda Bellinfante on plans for next Saturday night’s Santa Ana concert, and on activities of the Philharmonic Workshop, highlighted the regular monthly breakfast meeting of the Orange County Philharmonic society area chairmen, last Wednesday at the Balboa Bay club and presided over by Karen Margerata Bruning, executive director of the society. “Our doors are open for all Orange county musicians who want to participate,” Miss Bellinfante told the group in answer to charges that the Workshop was strictly a local beach project. “Although the Thursday night work-shop meetings are held at Orange Coast College in Costa Mesa, because of the excellence of the facilities there,” she continued, “I hope that ultimately the number of available players will be such that northern and southern section meetings can be held to avoid the necessity for players and students traveling long distances within the county.” Mrs. Maxwell Sturges of Lido Isle, chairman of the recently held “Nearly New Fashion Show,” gave a final report to the group on the successful results of that event.
