| 释义 | Stoeckel, CarlStoeckel, Carl(1858–1925) music patron; born in New Haven, Conn. Son of a music professor at Yale, in 1895 he married Ellen Battell Terry, an heiress from Norfolk, Conn. Together they made their home a center of music and the arts and they provided funds for various local cultural institutions, particularly glee clubs and choral groups. In 1899 they sponsored the first of a series of annual concerts that in 1906 moved to the "music shed" on their Norfolk estate. Attracting major performers and conductors—including Jan Sibelius in 1914—and commissioning new works, this series has continued ever since as a summer music festival. |
