The 1992-93 season marks the 150th anniversary of the oldest symphony orchestra in the United States, and Kitchen Classics from the Philharmonic celebrates this special event with a collection of mouthwatering, innovative recipes, plus amusing, enlightening, loving, and laughable anecdotes contributed by the composers, conductors, artists, executives, and friends who have been associated with the New York Philharmonic in the course of its illustrious history.
From Alice Tully to Isaac Stern, more than 150 friends and family of the Philharmonic have contributed their favorite recipes and reminiscences to this delectable anniversary tribute. And June LeBell (whose relationship with the orchestra dates back to her own debut - with Leonard Bernstein conducting the Philharmonic and the chorus from the High School of Music and Art) supplies not only a trio of delicious picnic recipes but also the witty and original "program note" introducing each of the contributors, and her own imaginative, sometimes rambunctious choice of music to accompany each dish.
Ms. LeBell's long-lasting and intimate relationships with virtually everyone and everything to do with the Philharmonic, as well as her love of good food and her encyclopedic knowledge of recorded music, make this a very special volume, larded with love and spiced with saucy sophistication. Al Hirschfeld's signature illustrations provide the deliciously frothy icing on the cake.
