Very sorry to hear about these allegations. I attended many rehearsals and concerts during the Kalmar years. He was very efficient in rehearsals and outstanding in concert. I remember many great concerts with Kalmar at the helm of the orchestra. I was fortunate to talk to Kalmar a number of times. He struck me as friendly and personable. There is no question in my mind that he substantially raised the playing standards of the Oregon Symphony. I hope the allegations in Cleveland are untrue. If the investigation establishes some wrongdoing, it would most certainly bring an end to a fine career in classical music. That would be tragic.
