...scholar who found the unsigned manuscript in 1924. The well-known B Major is still the strongest of the trios, and its adagio is beautifully sung by the deep bronze-voiced cello of Bernard Greenhouse, the American-born member of the international Beaux Arts Trio, whose voices blend smoothly together and also echo each other lightly and precisely...

This plan and other plans were carried out with a unique blend of private enterprise and the public sector. You will remember that nonprofit corporations took part in both the Waterfront and the Central Business District. Merchants in the business community raised the "seed" money: in one case $200,000, and in the other case $250,000.
