On the top floor of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel Monday evening, the six-month-old Dubin Breast Center of the Tisch Cancer Institute held its inaugural benefit, with champagne toasts and violin performances.

"I never had a bar mitzvah," said Eva Dubin, the physician, philanthropist and former "Miss Sweden" who founded the Dubin Center. "So all of my friends are coming out now."

Among those friends were hedge funder Paul Tudor Jones II, music industry bigwig Tommy Mottola, the actor Michael J. Fox, and, of course, Ms. Dubin's husband, Glenn Dubin, the philanthropist and founder of Flighbridge Capital Management LLC.

"[Mr. Siem] is the hottest young violinist in the world," said Mr. Mottola, after the performance.

Ms. Dubin and Mr. Siem, 25, are family friends, the violinist said. "The contemporary violin industry is definitely on the up," he added.

"Really," he assured, while shaking hands with Ms. Dubin. "Violin is just waiting to be discovered by the masses."
