JOHN

CLITHEROE
THE PROGRAMMES for the 1962-63 Concerts were about to go to press
when there came the tragic news of the death of Jack Clitheroe. He had
held the appointment of Director of Music to the Guildford Corporation
for seventeen years. The post was a new one; there were no signposts.
His brief was to develop municipally-sponsored music. It was probably
a unique venture for a town of Guildford’s size, and drew its initial
impetus from the wave of popular interest in music during and immedia-
Director of Music and Conductor
to be announced
tely after the war. The pattern of Corporation concerts as we now know
it was entirely of Mr. Clitheroe’s creation. He it was who formed the
Municipal Philharmonic Orchestra, who built up and trained the
Festival and Philharmonic Choirs, and who inspired the formation of
the Concertgoers’ Society, an increasing body of people pledged to back
the Corporation’s efforts, and sharing with them in the provision of a
number of concerts of chamber music.
Audiences are familiar with the standard of performance of works
given under Mr. Clitheroe’s baton and know that he wasa fine musician.
With that went great organising ability, and a wide experience (he had
held a number of posts in Northern Ireland and had spent five years in
New Zealand in a government appointment for the development of
music there); all these qualities combined to make him an ideal Director
of Music for Guildford.
A Fellow of Trinity College, London, he lived long enough to receive
the honour of election to Honorary Membership of the Royal Academy
of Music.
He had looked forward keenly to the transfer of musical activities
to the new Civic Hall in October, and had prepared the programmes for
its first season, and it is a severe disappointment to all who were associated with him that he has been denied what would have crowned his
work over recent years, and been a jumping off point for fresh achievements.
He said himself that it was his ambition to leave music in Guildford
so secure that his successor would have no difficulty. We believe that
he has done so, and it will be the business of the many friends who
mourn him—and he had a great gift for friendship—to see to it that his
tradition lives.

PROGRAMME FOR THE 1962-3 CONCERTS
From SIR ARTHUR BLISS, Master of the Queen’s Music.

Marlborough Place, N.W.8
March 15th 1962.
Dear Mr. Clitheroe
7 OCTOBER at 3 p.m.
My very best wishes for the success of your 1962-63 series of concerts. That these
should be taking place in your new hall is a great incentive to the further expansion
of fine music in Guildford, and I see by your ambitious scheme of concerts that
you and your players are taking full advantage of this.
Guildford is very
fortunate to have a Corporation that has for seventeen years consistently
supported the art of music. It offers a noteworthy example to many other
municipalities.
I am sure that big audiences will recognise and support this spirit
Yours very sincerely
ARTHUR BLISS

work has proved a vindication for the promoters of the scheme.
From the start you have directed the town’s musical policy with discretion, tact
and that single-mindedness of purpose which was vital to its success.
Your
every move has been directed not only towards popularising music in Guildford

but popularising the right kind of music and your choice of programmes has

catered for.
It must not be forgotten also, that without wise guidance in such an integrated
town as Guildford failure would have meant far more than just no orchestra.
As it is music in Guildford is now a force and is being followed with increasing
interest in many quarters.
It has placed Guildford in the forefront of towns where the authorities have had
the vision to give the people something which cannot be measured in practical
or material terms.

SOME OF THE ARTISTS WHO WILL BE
APPEARING
THIS SEASON
ERIC FRIEDMAN, now 21, was born in Newark, New Jersey, and has
been appearing in public since he was 8 years old. He studied the violin with Ivan
Galamian and Jascha Heifetz. He made his orchestral debut at the age of 10 with
the Center Symphony Orchestra of Newark, N.J., and, as a child prodigy, his
parents allowed him a few appearances, including a performance with the New York
Philharmonic at 12, and with the Little Orchestra Society of New York at
14, winning unanimous critical acclaim.
Eric Friedman gave his debut recital in the Carnegie Hall at the age of 17, and,
since then, his activities have expanded to include recitals and appearances with
orchestras from coast to coast of the United States. The distinguished conductor,
Pierre Monteux, predicted that he ‘is destined to go as far as a violinist can go.’
‘Thoroughly remarkable . . . from a technical point of view, he is as stylish a
musician as one could hope to find, and there are few musicians whose playing
is so handsome to watch.’

DANIEL WAYENBERG is of Dutch parentage, though born in Paris in
1929. He studied with Ary Verhaar in Holland and with Marguerite Long in
Paris, where he gave his first recital in 1947. He toured Italy the following year,
and in 1949 won the Grand Prix de la Ville de Paris in the Concours Internationale
Marguerite Long-Jacques Thibaud. He first played with the London Philharmonic
Orchestra in London in 1952 and again in 1953, during which year he also made
his American debut with the New York Philharmonic Symphony under the late
Mitropoulos. He appeared again in the U.S.A. and Canada in 1954 and 1955, and
also gave 35 concerts in Indonesia. In 1956 he was awarded the Grand Prix du
Disque for his recordings of Brahms’ Op. 76 and 116.In January 1957, he gave the
opening recital at the Dutch Institute in Paris, at which he was awarded the
Medaille Honorifique de la Ville de Paris. The same year he received the Harriet
Cohen-Dinu Lipatti Memorial Purse.
During the past few years he has made many appearances in this country, both
in London and the Provinces, and has become a firm favourite with the British
public. He made successful tours of South Africa and South America.
FOU TS’ONG arrived in England from Warsaw in December, 1958, and he
made his first concert appearance in Guildford and played to a ‘sold out’ house less
than a month later. The rarity of a Chinese pianist interpreting Western music
can be attributed to his unusual background. His father was a Professor of Western
art and literature at Shanghai Academy of Art. At the age of 10, Fou Ts’ong
started his piano studies with Mario Paci, an Italian pianist and conductor, and
continued later with a Russian pianist. In 1953 he won Third Prize in the International Competition in Bucharest, and in 1955 he won Third Prize in the International Chopin Competition as well as First Prize for his playing of the Mazurkas.
The Polish authorities offered him a scholarship to the Warsaw Conservatoire,
where he studied for two years under Professor Zbigniew Drzewiecki, obtaining
the highest diploma.
Since 1955, Fou Ts’ong’s career in Eastern Europe has consisted of over 500
concerts, including the closing concert of the 1957 International Youth Festival in
Moscow when he appeared with David Oistrakh. His career in Western Europe
has been no less distinguished. In 1958 he appeared twice at the Royal Festival
Hall, once in a Chopin recital and once with the Philharmonia Orchestra under
Maestro Giulini, as well as at the Royal Albert Hall and in the Provinces. He has
also given recitals in Paris, Lisbon and Singapore, and appeared at the Santander
Festival. His engagements have since included orchestral appearances in London
and the Provinces, as well as concerts in Brussels and Turin.
Now firmly established on the international concert platform, he is in great
demand throughout the world. Beethoven No. 4 is an ideal work for him.
He is married to Yehudi Menuhin’s daughter.
GARY GRAFFMAN is one of the most outstanding of the younger genera-
tion of American pianists. Though still only 33 years old, Graffman has been touring
the United States for the last twelve years and has appeared with the New York
Philharmonic, The Boston, Chicago and Cleveland Symphony Orchestras to
name only a few. The story is the same in South America where he first played in
1955. During his last European tour he appeared in Switzerland, Italy and Portugal.
Since his London debut five years ago, his several appearances in England have
been greeted with rave reviews. When he was last here he played several times with
the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra, who were also over here, as well as with the
Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra and the City of Birmingham Symphony
Orchestra. Gary Graffman undertook an extensive tour of South Africa which was
highly successful. Graffman has made many excellent records for R.C.A. His
previous appearances in Guildford have roused audiences to great enthusiasm and
no one who was present will ever forget his magnificent ‘Brahms No. 2’ in 1961.
YI-KWEI SZE, Chinese-born and educated, is now an American citizen.
He began his musical studies at the age of 17, and graduated with highest honours
from the National Conservatory of Music in Shanghai, where he studied with
Benjamin Ing, a graduate of the University of Michigan School of Music. Later,
he sang in such operas as ‘Rigoletto,’ “Tosca,’ and ‘Aida’ with the Russian Opera
Company, and launched a recital career that soon made him a popular figure
in the Chinese great metropolitan centres.
In 1947, Mr. Sze made his American debut at New York Town Hall, for which
he received high praise from the Press. He continued his studies in America with
Edith Walker and Alexander Kipnis, and, in 1949, won rave reviews for his
Carnegie Hall concert. Since then, his recital engagements from coast to coast of
the United States have been numerous, and he has developed an enormous
repertoire in six languages, not including his native Chinese.
In addition to recitals, he has won acclaim for leading roles with the New York
City and the Philadelphia Grand Opera Companies, and has repeatedly appeared
as soloist with many famous American orchestras. He has also had phenomenal
success on his concert tours of Australia, New Zealand and Alaska.
He had a sensational success when he sang for the first time in England in 1961.
‘The art of Yi-Kwei Sze is many-sided, beautifully polished, musically refined.
No singer today may boast a more noble line than Mr. Sze’s, none a vocal
organ so flexible and subservient to his wishes.’
New York Herald Tribune.
CLAUDE FRANK. ‘I consider Claude Frank one of the finest and brilliant
musicians of his generation. His pianism is outstanding and his deep and most
sensitive musicianship is absolutely unique!’ In his unprecedented public statement
about another artist, Rudolf Serkin dramatically focuses attention on one of the
most magnificent pianists and musicians of our time. One of the last pupils of
Artur Schnabel, Frank has been closely associated with Serkin’s Marlboro Festival
and School since 1953. During the years since, he has also appeared throughout
North America and Europe with orchestra, chamber ensembles, and as soloist on
radio and television as well as in the concert hall.
Claude Frank’s successes can only be called meteoric. A glimpse at his 1959-60
season is clear indication: orchestral appearances with the New York Philharmonic
under Bernstein, with the orchestras of Pittsburgh under Steinberg, Boston;
under Munch, in Boston, New York and Tanglewood, and of course, the usual
full schedule of recitals in this country and in Europe.
Born in Nuremberg, Germany, Claude Frank has made his home in the United
States since 1941, and is today counted among the major young American pianists.
‘His playing is deeply expressive, profoundly right in sentiment, and washed
with lyric poetry. One heard genuine Beethoven enlivened through the use
of a rich imagination.’
Jay Harrison, New York Tribune
‘Deep immersion in the music—caused the listener to sit up and listen to
each work as if with new ears.’
The London Times.
‘Combines absolute mastery with impeccable virtuosity—a very great artist.
Le Soir, Brusscls.
STANISLAV HELLER was born in Brno, Czechoslovakia. His first musical
education came from professors of the Brno Conservatoire (violin, piano and
composition) and of the Masaryk University (history of music and philosophy).
Later he furthered his studies with professors of the ‘Master Class’ in Prague,
piano under Prof. Vilem Kurz and organ under B. A. Wiedermann. In order to
study interpretation of early keyboard literature he left Czechoslovakia and continued his studies in Paris and later at the Royal College of Music in London, where
he received a Gold Medal and other prizes, qualifications and scholarships. He
became a British subject.
His first public appearances took place before he reached the age of 10 (piano,
organ) and as harpsichordist.
Later he became a frequent soloist of the British Broadcasting Corporation,
where he performs as soloist and with several orchestras and chamber ensembles.
He has appeared several times at London’s Wigmore Hall, Festival Hall, Albert
Hall (organ), and other concert halls in London and the provinces. He has made
several tours of Europe, performing on the Swedish, Danish, Swiss Radios, and in
Germany on the Westdeutscher Rundfunk, Hessischer Rundfunk, as soloist
under Rafael Kubelik with the Statsradiofonien Copenhagen, Radiosymphony
Orchestra Cologne, $.O.D.R.E. Orchestra Montevideo and other orchestras,
performed with oboist Leon Goosens, ’cellist Antonio Janigro (Colon Theatre
Buenos Aires) Handel Festival with Nan Merriman, Bach Festivals with Swiss
flautist Peter Lucas Graf, and other well known artists. Apart from Europe, he has
visited the American Continents several times.
“After hearing Stanislav Heller playing on the harpsichord all different styles
of compositions, I was convinced that I had been listening to a real master of
his instrument, a virtuoso who is not only technically accomplished on the
keyboard, but also can use all the colours this instrument offers. It was in
fact a surprise to me to hear so many combinations of registration. I can
recommend him warmly for any solo work in any style.’ Rafael Kubelik
LILIAN
KALLIR
was born in
Prague of Austrian parents, and taken
to the U.S.A. as a child. She won the National Music League Award at sixteen,
the American Artists Award at seventeen, and made a sensational debut in Town
Hall, New York, in the same year. She has appeared as soloist with major orchestras
in the United States, and also has four European tours to her credit. After a single
performance in Athens, she was ‘commanded’ to play to the King and Queen of
Greece.
In March, 1958, she toured Poland giving recitals and appearing as soloist with
orchestras. In April of the same year, besides being engaged to play the Schumann
Piano Concerto with the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra at the Royal Festival
Hall, London, and in several provincial towns during this Orchestra’s very successful English tour, she also performed this work with them in Leipzig. Other European appearances include recitals and orchestral engagements in Vienna, Zurich,
Geneva, Amsterdam and Munich.
She played with the Guildford Municipal Orchestra in 1960, and the charm and
graciousness of her playing made a deep impression on the audience.
The ‘Grieg Concerto’ has been the vehicle for many of her triumphs, for her
interpretation is ‘different’ and reflects both the poetry of the music and the
radiance of the pianist’s personality.
ANDRE NAVARRA was born in Biarritz. Coming from a family of
musicians, he showed a love of music at an early age and commenced his studies at
the Conservatoire of Toulouse. He continued at the Paris Conservatoire and, at
his first Concours, was awarded the first prize. After obtaininga first prize at an
International Concours in Vienna, he began his public appearances in Europe.
Andre Navarra has played with all the great orchestras of France, England,
Germany, Scandinavia, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Holland, Switzerland, etc.
Since 1949 he has been professor at the Conservatoire National in Paris. He is a
Chevalier de la Legion d’honneur and Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres.
Andre Navarra now records exclusively for Saga Records.
One of the great ’cellists of all time, Navarra’s appearances are anticipated with
keen pleasure in every country where music is heard and understood.
