"We were invited to a number of presentations and enjoyed them all," says Mr. Burton."But for us, chamber music was more understandable than larger symphonic productions.In particular, we were absolutely blown away by a performance of Shoenberg's Transfigured Night by the St. Lawrence String Quartet."

Mr. Burton, the president of Starcan Corporation, a manufacturer and distributor of automotive parts, established the Starcan Fund in 1986 to help promote and raise funds for programs in the arts, education and human rights.

"We enjoy chamber music, so we're doing our part to help the faculty increase their presentations," says Mr. Burton.
