BY JANELLE GELFAND
The Cincinnati Enquirer
The Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra has appointed a 14-member search committee to find its 12th music director.
Nancy Walker, a long-time member of the Board of Trustees, is chairman of the search committee.
During the CSO's last search for a music director, Mrs. Walker served on an advisory committee to the search committee that recommended CSO music director Jesus Lopez-Cobos. (Mr. Lopez-Cobos will leave in 2001.)
Members of the committee are trustees Blair Fleischmann, former president of the CSO Women's Committee; A.G. Lafley, executive vice president of Procter & Gamble and North American president of Procter & Gamble North America; Jack Rouse, CEO of Jack Rouse Associates and chairman of the Cincinnati Riverfront Advisory Commission; Jack Sherman Jr., Magistrate Judge of the U.S. District Court in Cincinnati; Thomas Stegman, president of Osborne Coinage Co.; Robert J. Werner, dean of the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music; and Charles F. Yeiser, chairman of the CSO Board of Overseers.
Four CSO musicians were also named to the committee: concertmaster Timothy Lees; associate principal violist Paul Frankenfeld; associate principal bassoonist Martin James and associate principal bassist James Lambert.
Steven Monder, president of the CSO, and Jeffrey Alexander, general manager, are also on the committee. Trish Bryan, chairman of the board, and Peter Strange, vice chairman, are ex-officio members.
The search will involved a two-tiered approach, Mrs. Bryan said. A second committee will be appointed to serve as an advisory committee.
