Thanks to a $400,000 grant from the General Motors Foundation, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra will head south to perform with Grammy Award-winning violinist Hilary Hahn and Van Cliburn International Piano Competition Gold Medalist Olga Kern during a tour of Southern Florida.
The GM Foundation has donated more than $84 million to various Detroit non-profit organizations and cultural institutions over the last decade, including a nearly $2 million grant to the DSO in order to help it bring its performances to Detroit and New York’s Carnegie hall, where it played in May of this year.
