Early Music Promoter Laurette Goldberg, 73

“A tireless organizer, performer and advocate for early music, Ms. Goldberg probably did more than any other individual to establish the Bay Area as a center for historically informed performance. Through her teaching and institutional work, she helped create a close-knit community of early music devotees and made the Bay Area a magnet for such enthusiasts worldwide. Her greatest legacy is San Francisco’s Philharmonia, which she founded in 1981 and led through the first five years of its existence.”
