(July 26, 2006) — On Wednesday, the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra reported that it had set a fundraising record for the second year in a row, bringing in gifts and donations of $2,160,000 from more than 7,076 individuals and corporations.

That beat the orchestra's 2005 record of $2,096.227. The RPO is making and setting the kinds of records that are becoming increasingly scarce in the classical music business."
