>>Lynn Kaiser asks:
>>Can anyone give me any information regarding Anthony Gigliotti's
dates and an approximate time that he was affiliated with the Philadelphia
Orchestra?

He's STILL with the orchestra, though not for long. He became principal
in 1949, and is retiring "at the end of this season". Exactly what concert
will be his last I'm not sure. But what appears to be his "last hurrah" will
be a performance of the Debussy Rhapsody with the orchestra at the
Mann Center (the semi-enclosed concert hall in Fairmount Park) on July 3.

Somewhere I have more info on his early years with the orch. If I find it,
I'll post it.
