On June 30, 2017, singers, teachers and other lovers of wisdom gathered in the New York Public Library’s Bruno Walter Auditorium at Lincoln Center, for a symposium which explored the indispensable role of classical music and beauty in society, the need for a scientific tuning of A=432 Hz, and the rich history and depth of knowledge and experience represented by the singers and artists who participated. This unique gathering was part of a two-day tribute to master musician and teacher Sylvia Olden Lee, whose 100th birthday anniversary was celebrated the night before in a concert at Carnegie Hall, in which many of the great singers of the symposium participated.
