In this special article for @NewMusicBox, Eve Beglarian (@evbvd) pays tribute to Fran Richard, Honorary Board member at New Music USA, Founding Director, Vice President of Meet the Composer, and former Vice President and head of @ASCAP's Concert Music department, who passed away on February 8 at the age of 87. Beglarian shares, "[Fran Richard's] support was for music where the stakes are high, where the risks are meaningful, where the possibilities are wide open...she stood up for us, testifying to the importance of what we do." Fran is sorely missed by Board and staff, past and present, at New Music USA, and by the music community she championed and cherished. We hope you enjoy learning about Fran's extraordinary life and work through Eve's words. — The @NewMusicUSA Team Read Beglarian's tribute here: newmusicusa.org/nmbx/fran-rich… 📷: Used with permission by @ASCAP

In Memoriam: Frances Richard, Honorary Board member at New Music USA and Founding Director, Vice President of Meet the Composer. We are sad to acknowledge the passing of Frances Richard, who served as Honorary Board member at New Music USA, Founding Director and Vice President of Meet the Composer, and former Vice President and head of @ASCAP's Concert Music department. She passed away on February 8 at the age of 87. She will be sorely missed by Board and staff, past and present, at New Music USA. Fran was known for her passionate support of composers and the impact she had on them at pivotal moments in their careers. At a virtual tribute to Fran organized by New Music USA last March, several of the composers who attended credited her for changing their lives. Fran’s extraordinary contributions to new music will live on through them. We will be paying tribute to Fran more fully on @newmusicbox in the coming weeks. Until then, our thoughts and condolences are with Fran’s family, her loved ones, and with the many composers and music professionals who will be sad to hear this news. Fran’s biography, along with information about her services, is included in @ASCAP's tribute here: ascap.com/.../2024/02/fr…
