Recognizing the worldwide reach and accomplishments of a globe-circling career, from the Pacific Rim to the Republic of France, with a stop in Kentucky, Maestro Maazel has been the recipient of three varied and prestigious honors over the last two weeks. It seems likely (though perhaps impossible to verify with certainty) that 2009 marks the first occasion on which the same person was decorated as a Commandeur in the French Legion of Honor and named a Kentucy Colonel within such a short span of time. And between the two, Maestro Maazel was celebrated for Building Bridges by the Pacific Century Institute. Please see the News section below for full details.
