SOCIETY NEWS By NIRA LESLIE GULEY The Citizen Office—S1 Residence—629-X] Columbia Concert Trio Well Received By Large Audience At Key West High School Auditorium Saturday By RUTH Three vibrant and young musi- clams gave Key West a mnagnit-| e@nt evening on Saturday, in the! See seeond of the Community Con- tert Series sponsored here by the Woman's Club. They were Ariana Bronn, Vio-| [hiet; Ardyth Walker, ‘Cellist, and Richard Gregor, Pianist. To- Gether these three are the Colum- bin Concert Trio. Individually, they are, each of them, superb Wusiclans of truly high calibre. The program was delightful- ty fresh, and they gave it a spon- | taneously fresh reading | The repose to the opening Rum be the Passacaglia by George Friederic Handel as ar- ranged by Halvorsen, was elec- | trie. 1. was immediately apparent; that here were three very seri-|! ous, greatiy gifted musicians, | whe were going to play with | enthusianm, with faultless skill, and with great enjoyment. This’ feeling increased as the evening ' moved forward Richard Gregor, who inciden- telly, does a prodigious amount ork throughout an evening's | the first solo concert played group, the F major Ballade, three Seotch Dances, and three Etudes} by Chopin. Mr. Gregor is a sensi- tive pianist, and his reading of | the Ballade was like a sudden ! glimpse into the emotions that were Chopin. His skill and un-' faltering accuracy asa_ pianist were apparent in the dances and, the etudes, and one had the feel- img that he was determined to demand the very best, and only the best from the instrument on which he piayed Ariana Bronn appeared next in, @ group of three numbers. Fritz; Kreister's Praeludium and Alle- | we ia the style of Pugnani, the @ighteenth century violinist com- poser; Valse Sentimentale, by Tsctikowsky, and the first move-; Ment from Lalo's Spanish Sym-) phony. Her bowing in the first silection was magnificent—free, strong, rich in tone. The muted Vaise Gentimentale was perform- ed with such true feeling and/ superb tone that it quite deserved | the fw seconds of silence before C asa a erinn Scene , country, {piano arrangement of tand it NEWTON the applause began. The Lalo was beautifully played, its fa- miliarity taking on new color ! under Miss Bronn’s skillful hands. the three | Following this solo, musicians performed Arensky’s Trio in D minor, Opus 32. By intermission time, it was already apparent that this was going to be one of those evenings when concerts are over much too soon, when, even should countless encores be given, it still would not be sufficient. Ardyth Walker, cellist, who had already convinced her audi- ‘ence that she was not only a bril- liant musician, but a most imagi- native one, opened the second | half of the concert with a solo group which included the Inter- mezzo from Granados’ “Goyes- cas;” the Introduction of Polo- naise brilliante, Opus 3, by Cho- pin; Saint-Saens’ “The Swan.” and Arthur Benjamin's Jamacian Rumba. Once again, it was clear that the Columbia Concert Trio is composed of three sterling artists whose work together is matched only by their superb artistry as soloists. The final ensemble number, a group of American folk tunes ar- j ranged by Dorothy Cadsow for the Trio, was indeed a wonderful conslusion to a wonderful con- cert. It is particularly fitting that there three vital young musicians who represent states across the New York, Iowa and Washington, should climax an evening with these representa- tive American tunes, in an ar- rangement that is filled with humor, spirit, and delightful charm. Solo encores included It Ain’t Necessarily So, by George Gersh- win, as arranged for violin by Jascha Heifitz; a group of Hun- garian folk tunes, arranged by David Popper for ’cello; anda Strauss waltzes from “Die Fledermaus.” It was a magnificent evening, would be delightful to think that the Columbia Con- cert Trio might return to Key West sometime in the future. Yesterday Of Exciting Match Between Sarah Palfrey Cooke And In the opening match Cooke @efeated his wife 7-5 in a match that for the first time saw flashes } Mrs. Cooke's championship Singles in tennis In a double match that ranged Womsthe sublime to the ridicu- fous -Sarah Palfrey Cooke and] Raiph E. Hartenstine, Jr., again} turned back Elwood Cooke, Wim- | bledan champion and Lt. Henry Welsh, Leech Cup member, at the 4 asa.Marina yesterday. At‘opposite poles were Harten- atine’S and Cook's vol- ranging Elwood Cooke leying and their impeccable ser- vice returns. The former and Mrs. Cooke created such havoc around Cooke’s knees and_ shoe- tops as he stormed in behind his service that he dropped two out of three service games and with | it the match. The Casa Marina will shortly make a_ preliminary announce- ment of its first winter invita- tional tournament to be held in March and which, in line with the successful new policy of ma- joring in tennis, will be an an- nual event in Key West.
