This volume supplements the personal archive donated by
Kretschmer to the University Library. It documents his singular
contributions to the cultural life of Santa Cruz since he settled
here in 1962. His thirty years as a board member of the Cabrillo
Music Festival and his long-standing association with the Santa
Cruz Symphony give him a unique perspective on the evolution of
these two cultural institutions. As a connoisseur of great music
and an engaged generous patron, Kretschmer has contributed
imagination, energy, and financial support in his unstinting
devotion to Santa Cruz musical life.
