| Chuck Lazarus! Dear all,
Please join me in congratulating my dear friend and colleague, Chuck Lazarus for winning a HUGE award in the Twin Cities, the McKnight Fellowship!
This is a very big deal and involves a $25,000 prize for excellence in musical performance featuring his compositions. He had to play before a jury and did so, apparently, with great grace and aplomb.
I'm proud to have Chuck in the section. He is an example of a true "Go-getter", constantly writing compositions and putting himself out before the public as a member of the MO and at the Dakota jazz Club down the street from Orchestra hall.
We're lucky to have a colleague like Chuck in the section and as a friend. The other guys in the section all feel the same way. We're proud of him.
