As The Kansas City Symphony Alliance celebrates its 50th year, we welcome

you to the 42nd Symphony Designers’ Showhouse. This project, started in

1969, is the longest-running annual fundraising Showhouse in the country.

This grand Sunset Hill home has something to celebrate this year, too. One

hundred years ago, in 1911, groundbreaking began on this Westover landmark

home. It was built for Dr. and Mrs. D. Walton Hall and was the family’s home for

nearly 40 years. From the time you enter through the beautiful front door, with its

intricate leaded glass trim, until you leave the house, you get a sense of Old World

charm and attention to architectural detail. Take a peek out of the 100-year-old

windows on the third floor, perhaps imagining yourself living in this elegant

house. Stroll through the rose garden on the east lawn and let your senses soar. We

hope that you enjoy your visit with us today.

Our auxiliary, formed in 1961 as the Junior Women’s Philharmonic Association

(JWPA), has adapted to many changes along the way. The Kansas City

Philharmonic closed its doors in 1982. Soon the orchestra was reorganized as the

Kansas City Symphony. This necessitated a name change for us, so we became the

Junior Women’s Symphony Alliance (JWSA). In 2008, it was time to update again,

so we opened our membership to men and women of all ages and emerged as the

Kansas City Symphony Alliance (KCSA).

This year marks another significant milestone for KCSA, as we expanded our

ranks to welcome members of Friends of the Symphony (FoS) into the group.

Since its inception, the Alliance has supported the Symphony by contributing

more than $6.5 million. Your attendance at the Showhouse helps us meet our

commitment to the Kansas City Symphony, an asset to the cultural life of Kansas

City and the region. We thank you for coming and hope that you will come again

next year.

We thank the current homeowners, Mr. and Mrs. Anil Jagtiani, for entrusting us

with their beautiful home. They have graciously assisted us in so many ways to

help transform the house into the stunning Showhouse you see today. The

Jagtianis, with their 15-year-old son, Kiran, have relocated to Philadelphia, Pa. We

hope they can arrange a visit back to Kansas City while the Showhouse is open.

Next, I would like to recognize our designers and landscapers. Where would we

be without these talented people, who always manage to create the impossible?

Their imaginative ideas and professional skills always amaze us, as somehow

everything comes together as planned. Designers, you did an outstanding job!

And last, but certainly not least, I would like to acknowledge members of

KCSA, fellow Symphony auxiliary members, community volunteers, Kansas City

Symphony staff and the patient Westover neighbors (who put up with our cars and

trucks for months). Thank you all.

Susann Shinkle, KCSA President

Featuring a tiled roof, large pillared veranda and many porches, Root &

Siemens Architectural Firm designed this English-style home with Gothic

influences. It was built for Dr. D. Walton Hall in 1911-12. A prominent ear,

nose and throat specialist in Kansas City, he was the grandson of Dr. John

Sappington of Arrow Rock, Mo., whose use of quinine pills for malaria fever

made him famous. Dr. Hall’s wife, Mary Katherine Motter of St. Joseph,

became a charter member of the Junior League in Kansas City.

The Halls moved into the house in

January 1912, and their son, Joshua, was

born in May. As a teenager, he moved his

bedroom to the third floor on the east side.

His sister, Katherine (Kitty) Wagstaff, also

grew up in the house. (Many of the female

descendants of the Hall family bear the

name Mary, Katherine, or a combination, in

honor of Mary Katherine (Motter) Hall.)

Back in the day, the master bedroom was

on the second floor and featured a fireplace.

A back bedroom is where Mrs. Hall spent

her last days on a chaise lounge with a pink

satin quilt, which is still in the family and

lovingly cared for by her granddaughter

Mary Kay Horner. She and her husband,

Charles Horner, donated the George Caleb

Bingham portraits of her ancestors Dr. John

Sappington and his wife to The Nelson-

Atkins Museum of Art.

Youngest granddaughter, Ruth Ann

Hinsdale, inherited the tall case clock that

sat at the foot of the stairs. Another

granddaughter, Betsy Stopperan, recalls

sitting on her grandfather’s lap in a big

Victorian chair in the library, Easter egg

hunts and roller-skating on the front porch.

The girls recall their grandmother’s love of

Oriental rugs and overstuffed furniture as

well as the sun porch (then sleeping rooms

for the hot Kansas City summers) with its

white wicker furniture where they played

cards and games.

The house also was home to a number of

live-in servants as well as a chauffeur who

always wore a black cap and lifted the

children into the car. Later they had a

limousine, and the driver had quarters in

the basement.

During this year’s second-floor bathroom

renovation that took the walls down to

the studs, the workmen found layers of

wallpaper, revealing the period decor —

one striking pattern was orange and green

polka dots. They even uncovered an old

Batman poster.

After Dr. Hall passed away, the Raymond

Glasnapp family bought the house from his

estate in 1950. Raymond and his wife, Erma,

operated a private investigative service

named for Lear B. Reid, former police chief

and FBI agent. Glasnapp remembers the

coal furnace, the chute and the brick-lined

coal room in the basement, which is

remarkably clean even today. He also

remembers the old “woody” station wagon

parked in front of the house. On a recent

visit, he noticed that a doorway was closed

off on the second floor on the north side,

which used to link a small porch off a

bedroom (minus the large closet it has today).

Around 1955, the house was sold to Keith

and Arlene Chasteen, who lived there with a

son and three daughters until 1959 before

being sold to Mrs. Adele McCarron, the

widow of George McCarron, followed by

Nick C. Spanos in 1961-62.

From 1963-1992, Marion and Phyllis

Trozzolo enjoyed the home with their seven

children. Marion is probably best known for

the “Happy Pan,” a Teflon-coated frying pan

he unveiled in 1961. Although such pans had

been selling in France since 1954, he was the

first American to manufacture and market

them in the U.S. One of the originals is in

the Smithsonian. He also donated a Teflon

coating for the fence around the Harry S

Truman home in Independence.

His second claim to fame was the

development of the “River Quay,” now

known as the River Market north of

downtown Kansas City. As early as 1958, he

discovered the charm of the old buildings,

and over the years, acquired more than 30

of them.

The Trozzolo family added a full-size

Jacuzzi pool to the property for their

children. One day Mr. Trozzolo came home

with six gallons of paint and gave each child,

except the baby, a brush and instructions to

go paint the pool. Somehow, when it all

came together, it resembled a Piet Mondrian

painting, which was a favorite artist of

Phyllis Trozzolo, a 1955 graduate of the

Kansas City Art Institute. However, the pool

was removed around 1990 and replaced by

the rose garden. Phyllis had a beautiful

garden in the backyard, and Marion

planted nearly every tree except the pines

in the back.

Andrea Trozzolo James was married at

the home in 1979. (The picture above shows

her coming down the staircase where her

father is waiting.) She is now a teacher at

Lincoln College Preparatory School and

took 16 of her students to view the

undecorated house to sketch some rooms for

an interior design project. They will return to

see the finished project.

Jon Trozzolo remembers that his parents

were hosts for “traveling Mass” for

Catholics who marched to a different

drummer. He says that his father was an

accomplished amateur musician who played

the harmonica, guitar and mandolin, which

Jon now owns. Marion also was a champion

dancer on roller skates in Chicago in 1943.

For awhile, he had his own private roller rink

on Westover.

The Trozzolos were succeeded by Steve

and Audrey Hill and John and Lisa Morton

in the 1990s.

The home was purchased by current

owners Anil and Julapa Jagtiani in 2003,

who lived there with their son, Kiran, while

Anil held the position of Executive Vice

President of Hallmark Cards in Kansas City.

They have since relocated to Philadelphia,

where Anil is an executive for Crane and

Co. Inc., and Julapa is with the Federal

Reserve Bank.

The house is currently for sale.

Welcome to the 42nd Symphony Designers’ Showhouse! We are

thrilled to have you experience the wonders of the many

talents within these walls. As many of you may know, this beautiful

home was our 23rd Showhouse in 1992, and we are thrilled to revisit

its grandeur. The hardwood floors, spacious rooms, charm, grace and

natural light exhibit some of the warmth that you will feel as you

tour the Showhouse.

From the moment you enter, you’ll escape from the ordinary into

the ultimate dreams of our designers, who have all come together to

enhance the beauty of the 9-foot ceilings, well-proportioned rooms

and understated elegance and grace of today’s most-wanted features.

It has been my pleasure to guide and oversee the designers,

workers, landscapers, painters and others as they came together to

create this masterpiece. They have taken chances, tried new products

and mixed things up in ways that produced terrific results for a place

that feels “like home.” It has been my privilege to share with our

members, friends and you, our patrons, the amazing work that has

gone into the success of this Showhouse. I congratulate the designers

on a job well done and am proud to say that the Showhouse has been

represented by some of the finest designers in the Kansas City area.

I feel fortunate and thankful for each and every one of you for

your devotion to our project and our mission, which “promotes an

interest in symphonic music throughout the Greater Kansas City area,

and in particular, the welfare of the Kansas City Symphony, the

Kansas City Symphony’s programming, young peoples’ concerts and

youth activities through volunteerism, educational projects, social

activities and fundraising projects.”

I hereby devote this program book to the designers, supporters,

advertisers, trade workers, members and friends who have given their

time and products to the success of the 42nd Symphony Designers’

Showhouse! Thank you!

window treatment: One Stop Decorating

Step into this beautiful foyer to

enjoy a warm color palette

anchored by hand-knotted rugs.

The design of the Royal Pine

Coral rug is based on European

botanical paintings. The Hepplewhite

sideboard represents the epitome of

design, finish, detail and Stickley’s

legendary quality. Details include a

crotch mahogany bow front with

serpentine cupboard doors. Both

drawers and doors have intricate

double maple inlay with solid brass

hardware. Each leg features an

inlaid maple bell flower at the top

and a tulip wood, ebony and

maple banding on the bottom. The

Blackwell Serpentine chest has

Chinese fretwork that replaces the

quarter-round pilasters in the

canted corners. Note how the shape

of both the top and bottom conform

to the graceful lines of the façade.

An unusual combination of textured, casual fabrics and sophisticated glitzy

textiles create unexpected elements. A happy coral provides the background

for the larger neutral upholstered pieces in traditional shapes. Pillows made from

an antique rug pattern and striped fabrics add a punch of color in addition to

original contemporary paintings. The room is divided into three areas. A pair of

sofas surrounds the fireplace, separated by a cocktail ottoman in a tigress gros

point cut velvet fabric. A baby grand piano has center stage in the room, balanced

by a transitional chest and custom French chair with alligator textured leather seat

and contemporary floral fabric back. The far end of the room has a traditional pair

of dressmaker chairs separated by a custom metal and glass table.

The long, narrow proportions of the library are designed to offer multiple areas of

activity and relaxation. The artwork — a combination of bold and serene, with the

muted tones in the upholstery and leather — is calming against the richly stained case

goods. Stickley Arts and Crafts furniture suits this wonderful limestone house. Both

are just as beautiful and enduring today as they were when designed at the turn of the

20th century. Leopold Stickley would feel right at home sitting in his namesake chair

enjoying a glass of wine.

Between the warmth of the orange punches of color, the fabric textures on the

upholstered pieces and the drama of the sculptural light fixture hanging above the

Carrara marble table, this porch has been re-imagined. With items such as swings

rather than settees, moss walls rather than concrete, dramatic lighting instead of the

usual sconces, you’ll be rejuvenated to reinvent your own outdoor living space.

POWDER ROOM

Design Area #5

The powder room resembles an Old World/Tuscan look with crackle faux finish on the walls in warm

brown, cream and sienna colors. The floor looks like a cobblestone street with its 3-inch by 6-inch gold

and cream travertine tile designed and installed in a brick pattern. Oil-rubbed sconces bring to light the look

and feel of the room as the same wrought-iron finish is found on the mirror and additional bath accessories.

Finishing off this Italian countryside theme is a picture of an Italian hillside with colors of red, mustard

gold, olive and warm brown.

GRAND STAIRCASE

Design Area #6

By blending representational, abstract and even sculpture, one can create a unique

harmony that makes a space all its own. The lusciously textured birch tree canvas

adorning the staircase serves as a transitional work of art that functions in both traditional

and contemporary settings. The rich and expressive characteristics of the large abstract

piece balance the other pieces with a focus on formal artistic elements. The look and feel

of the space would not be complete without fabulous, handcrafted and custom-designed

framing. The artwork has a dynamic effect in combination with the fun, whimsical

sculpture. They create an enjoyable space for all types of art lovers.


As you turn the corner to the final landing of the grand staircase, you are greeted

by children’s portraits, each showing the innocence of youth, the love of family

and the playfulness of the season. The bold colors of the portraits are a great choice

to fill the blank canvas of the grand staircase hallway. The gentle natural light from

the window, combined with direct lighting, emphasizes the colors and beauty each

portrait portrays. An antique table placed in the hallway allows a place to highlight

some smaller portraits that continue to show the happiness of youth and pull in the

colors of the surrounding space.

This space has been designed to function for many uses. The small closet sports an updated storage system, while

additional room can be found in the armoire and chest. The table in the center of the room comes in handy when

getting dressed or can be transformed into a desk area for a cozy home office, surrounded by comfortable seating

for multiple guests. The cart next to the bath can be used as a coffee station, for evening cocktails, or for housing

makeup and accessories. The anchor to this room is an antique hand-knotted rug with a center medallion. The rather

formal pattern is less fussy because of the neutral color with the simple addition of an aqua blue, while a central

chandelier and lamps make for a bright or romantic setting depending on the use of this multifunctional room.

This bedroom is a perfect suite for anyone, be it a resident or guest. Taking it back to its roots, this room

is naturally dark at night, letting the sun awaken you in the morning. As a carry through from the

dressing room, the north wall is covered with drapes, the perfect solution for light and noise control and

privacy, and it acts as a backdrop for the simple rattan bed. Blue, high-quality bedding naturally induces

relaxation and sleep, topped off with essential nightstands and lamps. The original mirror is used for daily

or nightly quotes or affirmations, while the existing shelves display personal mementos, books, magazines

and baskets for extra storage. This cozy room has the simplicity and sophistication that will transcend time

and trends.

Take a moment to peek out the windows, and you’ll be pleasantly surprised to

see large peacock chairs and a round table decorating the roof terrace. The

chairs are painted high-gloss vibrant magenta, while horizontal mirrors add a touch

of elegance and create a new architectural element in the space. Chic, happy and fun

— that’s all you need in a small space like this!

Ivory, cream, gold and French blue create a sophisticated atmosphere

examples of French motifs, such as a lavishly upholstered carved

headboard, ornate bombe and hand-painted Rococo sideboard topped

with an “horloge parlante” timepiece. The upholstery is silky, elegant

and feminine, the bedding is luxurious, and draperies are flowing

columns of cream that puddle generously on the floor. A muted

wool rug and sparkling chandelier complete an exquisite chamber

comfortable for the masters of the house.

Modern elegance abounds in this bathroom designed with a palette of creamy

ivory, soft muted aqua and deep ocean tones that create a spa-like

hand-applied patina and glaze, transforming ordinary into extraordinary. Original

artwork, hand-crafted accent lighting and accessories complete this inviting space.

From the delicate sky blue to the

deepest, boldest cobalt, the

master bedroom evokes a tranquil

and fresh mood to visitors and

guests. The walls are painted

Wedgwood blue, and the trim is

fresh linen white. The sophisticated

geometric pattern of the wool rug is

framed in an additional geometric

pattern of solid blue. Pretty patterned

linen draperies and an attractive

scalloped tailored valance offer

privacy and another large dose of the

Wedgwood and cream combination.

Furnishings are traditional in scale

and design — a painted chest with

contrasting blue trim complements

the walnut and ebony side tables. A

reproduction mirror from Niermann

Weeks rests above the dresser,

while a cozy reading area, anchored

with a down-cushioned chaise

lounge, offers a quiet retreat. Details

include bedside lamps featuring a

white coral branch motif and antique

silver trays filled with personal

accessories.

This bright, sunny sitting room is richly colored in blue walls combined with creamy white wainscoting and white

woodwork, all of which help create a happy and energizing atmosphere day and night. The light from the table

lamps and white-shaded chandelier provide comfort and coziness. At night, curl up on the off-white sofa to read the

latest novel or chat with family members. A celery-green velvet pillow flanked by blue pillows trimmed with celery-

green fringe enhances the sofa. Periwinkle blue Bergere chairs complete the conversation area. The colors are tied

together with a trellis pattern in green, blue and cream on the soft valances and repeated on two lumbar pillows for

the chairs. Favorite paintings round out the sophisticated, charming hideaway full of treasures, memories and hope.

The master bath, painted in a

soothing blue, was designed

with a “wow” factor in mind. It is

well appointed with high-end

materials, such as Carrara marble,

custom cherry cabinetry and

brushed nickel fixtures, giving it

a luxurious feel. The listello

tile accent of black and white

marble used on the shower wall is

the motivation for other design

elements in the room. The curving

vine pattern in the tile inspires the

curved lines found in the faucet

handles, tub apron, light fixture,

shower and window treatments,

and the vanity’s corbelled feet.

Sparkling classic nickel light

fixtures put the final touch of

elegance on this master bathroom.


WEST MASTER WALK-IN CLOSET

Design Area #19

As you traverse this closet, enjoy the displays of fine portraits that capture the inner beauty of subjects, whether

children, newborns, families, maternity, women in all stages of life or high school seniors. Each portrait,

traditional or contemporary, becomes a timeless piece of artwork.

Two generations of Strauss

Peyton, Mark and Jonathan

Braswell, continue to bring Kansas

City innovative portraits. Their

intense love of art and visionary

style allow them to create portraits

like none other. Jonathan focuses

on high school seniors in this

stairway, showcasing his ability to

find the perfect pose, expression

and moment in time.

Acontemporary base enhanced

by traditional elements is the

theme for this often-overlooked

area of a home’s design: the hallway.

A neutral backdrop sustains the

simplicity of this thoroughfare’s

practical function while allowing

a selection of fine art, depicting

classic images of landscapes and

still life, to engage and inspire

passers-by. A colorful window

treatment complements but doesn’t

distract the spectator’s attention

from the main art attraction. In

fact, the calming colors of the

treatment’s fabric will likely entice

the homeowners to pause at this

cozy niche to catch one last glimpse

of the lovely art before gathering

belongings from the hallway’s

sleek accent table and continuing

on their way.

As you enter this hideaway, you are embraced by a warm color palette inspired

by refinished honey oak floors; a dark, deeply carved chest; and a richly

lacquered Asian cabinet with a chandelier emulating rice paper. Analogous tones of

orange contrasting with surges of black velvet, tender gold green and cloudy-day

gray enhance the entire space, along with window treatments and a large area rug.

An Asian version of a lambrequin frames the east window with oval fretwork

mirroring that found in the paned glass on the south wall. An easel with canvas is in

close proximity to the window nook, with a window seat that’s cushioned in a plush

fabric with side bolsters. A writing area, centrally located in the space, provides

open access to a unique screen shelf that provides storage for a book collection.

The bright white walls of the bath area are softened by floating lotus blossoms, a warm luxurious robe, a well-lit sink area with wood-framed

vanity mirror and oversized towels. An area rug in the middle of the bath lies underfoot. The silky green shower curtain is a welcoming

touch of color in an isolated corner and contrasts pleasingly with the ruby dusk and warm almond-shaded tiles found throughout the space. The

deep claw-foot tub provides a respite for total relaxation and reflection with its aromatic waters from therapeutic spa scents and bathing oils.

The richly upholstered side bench allows for extra seating or a nice resting place for a good book and reading glasses.

This charming bedroom, under the eaves with its coved ceiling and hand-painted trellis, was original to the

homeowner, and they wanted it to stay that way. Working with Provencal blue and yellow and adding creamy

whites and a touch of green here and there created the perfect coloration. Pine furniture pieces, painted furniture

touches and country checks add to the whimsical look that never goes out of style. A bit of history is found in the

linens, purchased at a Paris flea market. The white hand-crafted “boutis” quilt was carried all the way back from

Avignon. A matching piece was seen in Veranda magazine in 2007 in a home owned by fashion designer Adrienne

Vittadini. The fireplace mantel is also French and complements the perfect window seat.

Breaking all the rules has never been so much fun! This laundry room is full of surprises. Beginning in the

hallway, your eye is immediately drawn to the classic black crystal chandelier. Open shelving gives the

room much-needed storage without weighing it down with heavy cabinetry. The graphic wallpaper adds a cool,

sophisticated look. Modern gray tones interspersed with exuberant pops of turquoise make this a room you can’t

wait to do chores in.

THE LAUNDRY ROOM

Design Area #25

C R E D I T S : Electrical work: Daniel Pigago; flooring: Family Values Remodeling, Chris Siegle


Not just a bedroom but the nanny’s private getaway, this room is modernized and influenced by Dorothy Draper.

The deep eggplant wall color helps make this nanny feel like royalty. A pattern painted on the arched ceiling

above the reading nook not only defines the space but also showcases the interesting ceiling shape that’s very similar

to the interior of an aircraft, which is how it was intended to be used by Dorothy Draper, brushed in a warm bronzed

pearlescent color. The large-scaled geometric and floral patterns keep true to the Dorothy Draper design concept,

while the overall look is much cleaner and simpler. A separate dining area features a custom tablecloth made in

a one-of-a-kind floral print fabric and trim with custom fabric window treatments. This space also has a storage

shelving unit and Desiron console that can be used as a desk, vanity or media center.

To unwind after a difficult day, free

fall into this “sustainable space for

the thinking man.” Natural light from

windows fills the space during the day,

and gentle task light at night assists in

tackling the thoughts of tomorrow. On

the floor is “green” Forbo-brand flannel

gray flooring; the walls are painted in

zero-VOC creams and classic camel.

treatments caress the window walls

with floor-length tailor screens visually

Tom Corbin’s Alexandra table. A refined

with an environmental landscape painting

by local artist Rich Bowman. While

The Strauss Peyton family is

renowned for its award-

winning portraiture. Each member

continues to tell the story of Kansas

City life through the distinctive

family portraits they create. Rarely

can a portrait artist bring out the

many and varied dimensions,

dynamics and interactions that

define a family. Strauss Peyton’s

family portraits tell the whole

story with accomplished skill and

inimitable style.

FORMAL DINING ROOM

Design Area #29

Inspired by springtime in Paris, the formal dining room features case goods that include a 19th-century

European reproduction table flanked by updated wingbacks. The chairs are covered in a linen fabric

stamped in French writer John-Paul Sartre’s quote that translates, “Even the most trivial event becomes an

adventure when someone starts telling its story.” The six guest chairs are stylish splash backs in a white-

washed finish. Other eye-catching pieces include a standing beveled mirror, a bombe chest, and a

serpentine, hand-carved console with cabriole legs and veneered lattice. Garden statuary in an aged stone

finish accessorizes the room; it’s grounded by a richly textured, silvery sisal area rug. Framed Paris grid

maps decorate the walls, while a bejeweled crystal chandelier etched in silver hangs from the metallic

ceiling. Sumptuous silk cream draperies complete the design, blending vintage French with modern attitude.

D E S I G N E R S :Ethan Allen ● Lori Rodopoulos, Yolanda Witt, Ashley Davis and Susan Shepherd7090 W. 135th St., Overland Park, Kan. ● 816.812.4222 ● ethanallen.com

The tall, oriental lattice-work screens create a dramatic background, while the comfortable slipcovered upholstery

is a nod to the garden-room feel of the windowed space. Here, a stone-and-glass center table affords this room

multiple uses, from an office to cocktail lounge or even a casual dining space. A washed, antique reproduction

Oushak rug covers the floor and establishes a subdued yet colorful palette. Accents of orange and teal are found in

the pillows, accessories and art. The small amount of wall space near the ceiling has been painted blue to mimic the

sky, while an antique Asian cabinet is used as a bar and storage. Lighting is found in an overhead fixture and lamps

around the room and can be adjusted according to how the room is used. Overall, it’s an elegant space for the entire

family, with classic style and a cozy, comfortable vibe.

Kleweno designers created a bold

environment by blending custom-

designed local art with the latest

appliances and luxurious accents. The

kitchen, originally designed by Kleweno

13 years ago, is significantly updated to

focus on entertaining while maintaining

a highly functional living space. Lending

to the Asian-influenced aesthetic is

the custom-carved backsplash tile, the

polished black granite countertops,

bronze-mirrored window enclosures, and

the custom black pot rack and light

fixture. A local artist’s paper and metal

wall sculpture complements the aesthetic

of the room. What was originally

designed as a desk area, an important

function of kitchens at the time of its

original design, has now been transformed

into a wine bar — a central gathering

point alongside the kitchen and enclosed

porch. Guests can gather around a

leather-upholstered countertop and have

easy access to a new wine chiller,

glassware and accessories.

Plymouth green walls with soft white trim and generous windows make the perfect backdrop when eating breakfast

in the morning. The peacock blue and green Damask tablecloth and hand-painted bird table mats make an

imaginative base for the green spiral glass and majolica dinnerware. Decorative birdcages complement the serene

tropical feel of this welcoming space. The wire chandelier and hand-painted John Derian antique bird tiles add just the

right touch for the garden-paradise theme.

The backyard deck needed refurbishing: the decking was deteriorating, and the railing needed a fresh coat of paint.

New routed, treated pine decking was installed and an oil stain applied, which coordinates with the house

trim and deck railing. A satin finish was selected for the railing, and the “new” backyard deck now has a fresh and

finished look.

FORMAL ROSE GARDEN

Design Area #34

The beautiful, classic English garden was rejuvenated by the addition of fresh, healthy plants and garden

accessories featuring statuary and seating. The centerpiece fountain was brought back to life, boxwood hedging

and roses were carefully pruned, and the pea gravel walkway was top-dressed. Seasonal color, additional roses

and fresh wood mulch were added to complete the makeover. Concrete benches invite garden visitors to take a

moment to relax and enjoy the surroundings. A table and chairs allow family and friends to sit and visit, while unique

statuary in the northwest corner adds an additional focal point to an already visually stimulating garden.

It’s the first big impression when

arriving at the home. The existing

formal structure is highlighted with

a blast of spring color and some

TLC. Mulching the entire front and

redefining all the beds brought a

cleaner look to the front entrance.

Rosehill also highlighted the front

façade with new LED lighting.

This creates security and elegance

with more cost savings than

incandescence, but with the same

soft glow.

Every year, the Symphony Showhouse is

a highlight in the season of the Kansas

City Symphony. It has evolved into more

than just a tradition. The creativity and

cooperation it represents is a wonderful

reflection of the similar support that the

Symphony is so fortunate to have among

its volunteers. We continue to benefit from

one of the most vibrant and devoted

collection of volunteers that is without

a doubt among the most successful and

effective of any orchestra in our country.

I hope that everyone will have a chance

to pass through the Showhouse and view

the fruits of the labor of so many talented

people. I congratulate everyone involved,

and I am personally honored and gratified to

be part of such an energetic and essential

organization as ours. Bravo to all!

So many of my favorite people I’ve met

in Kansas City are volunteers. I would

even say that many of our now dear friends

are Symphony volunteers, and that’s why it

gives me such joy to celebrate one of their

crowning achievements for the year, as they

have now for so many years, the Designers’

Showhouse. The dedication and time of

these wonderful people comes together for a

not-to-be-missed event that is fun for all of

the Kansas City community. I know you will

enjoy the Showhouse and all the fine people

who make it possible.

Carnegie Hall in New York, Boston’s Symphony Hall,

Amsterdam’s Concertgebouw, Musikverein in Vienna and the

Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles __ each of these is

more than a magnificent building. These celebrated houses of music

elevate and distinguish their cities; however, for musicians and

music lovers, they are true destinations. To perform on their stages,

extending legacies of some of the greatest music-making from across

the centuries, or to hear a masterful performance as an audience

member is special beyond words.

It is the glorious acoustics of these great halls in which the magic

lives, for music is only alive when the written notes on the page are

given wing. From these stages, every note is enhanced by the clarity,

Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts

Imagine the Difference


THOUGHTS ABOUT OUR NEW LIFE IN THE KAUFFMAN CENTER FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS

BY MICHAEL STERN, MUSIC DIRECTOR, KANSAS CITY SYMPHONY

immediacy and beauty of the acoustics,

instantly inspiring musicians to a new level.

And for the listening audience, the nuance

and inflection, the power and passion, the

shouts and whispers of great music are all

revealed in a way no stereo system or

CD can ever replicate. And so it will be

with our new Kauffman Center for the

Performing Arts.

As we celebrate our inaugural season at

the Kauffman Center, we also celebrate

Kansas City and its identity as the “City of

Fountains.” We will present three world

premieres in our first season, all inspired by

the gorgeous fountains of our city. Just as

Respighi wrote his stunning Fountains of

Rome, we will present three new works

commissioned for our opening season by

three marvelous composers: Stephen Hartke,

Daniel Kellogg and Kansas City’s own Chen

Yi. This will be a season-long salute to our

home city and to these living works of art

that so inspire Kansas Citians of all ages.

Our new hall will change forever the way

we experience live music and performance

in Kansas City. The stunning architectural

statement of Moshe Safdie’s design has

become an iconic symbol amid our

landscape. But most of all, no one will want

to miss the opportunity to hear music as it

was meant to be heard, with all the clarity

and emotion that the great composers

intended __ in the words of Beethoven,

“May the music go from the heart to

the heart.”
