Community Concerts Inc.; Columbia Artists Management, Inc., New York

Original publisher's beige paper program. 1963-1964. 8 1/4" x 11 1/4." Four pages (one leaf folded in half and printed on all sides), complete. Horizontal and vertical fold lines. Pages are very clean and intact overall. Pages slightly age-toned. A few wrinkles throughout. A puncture (appears as if something hit the paper) measuring about 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" is in lower-left corner, but text is still readable. A Good copy. Program for a performance by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra under the patronage of Queen Elizabeth. George Pretre (1924-2017) is the conductor. This was the first American tour that the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra had undertaken since its debut tour in the United States in 1950. Front and back pages include a brief biography of the orchestra and Pretre. Interior pages comprise the program. The Community Concert Association was part of a movement to bring the arts from metropolitan areas to smaller communities that did not necessarily have the funds to host such events. Community Concerts was founded in 1922 as the Organized Audience Movement, which was led by Dema Harshbarger and Ward French. Columbia Concerts Corporation (which would later become Columbia Artists Management, Inc.) became interested in Community Concerts and acquired it in 1928 as a subsidiary. After the acquisition, Community Concerts became Community Concerts, Inc., which helped local communities establish their own Community Concert Associations. Community Concerts enjoyed many decades of success under Columbia Artists until 1999 when it was sold to Trawick Artists Management. Unfortunately, Community Concerts became defunct in 2003 when Trawick Artists became bankrupt, but today, many of the local Community Concert Associations still operate independently.. Book. Book Condition: Collectible-Good. Binding: No Binding
