Special Thanks
For their assistance with this 41st Symposium, Helicon is deeply grateful to the estate of Gladys Kriebel Delmas,
to Peter Helm for the loan of his 1887 New York Steinway piano,
and to Holly Lueders and Dick Spizzirri for providing a temporary home for our two harpsichords.
Helicon records its sorrow at the death of our long-term member Edwin Charles Steffe.
