I would choose Altria over the woman. One thing to consider is that the very survival of said orchestra is dependent upon getting sufficient funding. That fact alone would erase any apprehension of taking "dirty money" from Altria because otherwise the orchestra would not exist. Of course in the future if our funding becomes more stable I would consider dropping them, however desperate times call for desperate measures.
I would not take the funds from the woman because in doing so I would be undermining the integrity of the orchestra. I would be allowing it to just become a tool for someone who is not interested in its continued existence, other than for using it to give someone an upper hand that he hasn't earned.
