From Merkin Concert Hall website:
"Ralph Kaminsky (1926-2012) was one of the greatest advocates for contemporary music that New York City has ever known. To honor Ralph's singular passion, six groups with whom he was closely affiliated (with a total of over 50 musicians) will perform works by composers whom Ralph championed -- the first time these groups have ever appeared in concert together. The evening will also mark the creation of the Ralph Kaminsky Fund for New Music, a new nonprofit designed to commission works from composers both emerging and established.
