It also deals with the histories of two groups closely intertwined with the MSO, the Madison Symphony Chorus and the Madison Opera. Remarkably, the orchestra has had only four music directors in the past century--Sigfrid Prager, Walter Heermann, Roland Johnson, and John DeMain--and each of them are the subject of a biographical chapter here.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e J.
