Ronald Perelman Takes Over as Carnegie Hall Chairman From Sanford I. Weill, Hopes to Shift From Classical Performances to Mainstream Acts
The internet is blowing up with news that billionaire Ronald Perelman will be succeeding Sanford I. Weill as the chairman of Carnegie Hall, a position he has held for nearly 25 years. The announcement isn’t just shocking because of the staff change, but also because Perelman has said to the New York Times that he is “not much of a classical music enthusiast” and hopes to push the hall into hosting more pop performances.

Just how successful? Well, these two groups raised $20,235 in donations, supported by some 300 individual donors. It was an important initiative.
