Maria Noriega Rachwal's book about Ethel Stark and the MWSO "From Kitchen to Carnegie Hall" will be released October 6, 2015. Violet Grant States is my aunt (my mom's older sister). She was also my first piano teacher. I grew up with the lore around the MWSO and pictures of the orchestra lined the walls of my aunt's music room.
