One hundred children with leukemia will be the guests of the La Jolla Chamber Music Society at the March 7 Itzhak Perlman recital in Civic Theatre. The program’s sponsoring organization, AntiCancer, identified the youngsters for the society.

According to Geoff Brooks, the society’s executive director, Perlman will meet the children backstage after his performance. Though the noted violinist had polio at age 4, he established an international performing career.
