Meir's son seeks to play with Bismarck orchestra
BISMARCK ND Menachem Meir of the Israeli Philharmonic and son of the late Golda Meir has applied to become the Bismarck Mandan Symphony Orchestra's principal cellist. Executive director Nancy Swenson says the 62 year old studied with Pablo Casals and seeks a full time post. The 64 member ensemble paid 11 000 to 15 000 for an eight month season last year. Swenson noted Meir's credentials exceed those required for a small orchestra and that he may have family ties to the United States. Meir reportedly wants to move to America for a position in this country.
