Description

Stephen Goldman was a tech titan who retired in 2000 to begin his "second life" as a composer and philanthropist. He has combined those interests to benefit several organizations including the world renowned Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra. This is the story of one very unusual night created by one very remarkable man.

Mr. Goldman is also the creator and sponsor of The Young Composers Challenge. To see a video and learn why it's the only program of its kind, anywhere in the world, click here.

    Roger and I have been honored to watch the progression of this work of music from listening to it at Steve's house, to this beautiful evening with the symphony. Every time I hear it, I see a ballet being performed!

    Now that's an idea...the Orlando Ballet and Symphony performing this local boys music! Orlando is blessed with some wonderful talent.

    All the best to Steve,

    God Bless You, Camilla

    ps...once again Growing Bolder did a very professional job!
