The 50-member orchestra. drawn from many areas. is almost completely self-sup- porting, but there is urgent need for additional funds to support its ambitious cam- paign to take its good music wherever interest can be found. Leader and conductor of the YRS Phillip Buddlsees particularly fertile ground in the classroom, and many visits have been made to schools in York where re- markable interest in good music and in the composiâ€" tion and sound of an effec- tive symphony orchestra has been evident. York Regional Symphony is presenting a special fund raising program at 8:30 pm Saturday in Bradford Mem- orial Community Centre. The combination of wine, cheese, and good light music along with the company of many friendly people is the program for the evening.
