Good Music

BY JAMES THRASHER

Piano lecture-recitals are to be| | with us still, in spite of Columbia's | | discontinuing its Wednesday after-

noon series this week. At 10 a. m. Saturday, WIRE will present ansimilar feature, Chasin’s

| Music Series, with Abram Chasins | as soloist-commentator.

You're very apt to have heard of Mr. Chasins as the composer of “Rush Hour in Hong Kong,” if -for

no other reason. But he has gained considerable fame as a composer in more serious vein, as well as a concert player. His pianistic debut was quite an auspicious one, not only because he had the able assistance of Leopold Stokowski and the Philadelphia Orchestra, but because the vehicle was his own First Concerto.

= # 2

Mr. Chasins is a native of New York's East Side, which also gave

| George Gershwin to modern music.

His piano study, unlike Mr. Gersh- { win's, began at the age of 7. His ; teacher was Bertha Tapper. At 12, ihe was a pupil of the composer, Rubin Goldmark, and two years later went to Richard Epstein.

= ® =

The young pianist's rapid progress drew the attention of Ernest Hutcheson, who took him under his wing when Mr. Chasins was 15. Now at the age of 33, he is a teacher

at ‘the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia. Better known as a composer than as g player, his first published composition, “Thiee Chinese Pieces,” preceded his concert debut by four years. There is a prevalent| notion that musicians-are “queer” because they {devote therhselves exclusively to their art (or is it their dreams?) and “let the rest of the world go by. Acquaintance with successful artists goes far to banish this illusion, and Mr, Chasins dispels it further. A’ fluent conversationalist—he speaks French, German, Russian— jand a man of catholic taste, Mr. { Chasins has declared: “I am interested in almost everything in the world, and if I had to devote all my time and interest to music, I would consider my life misspent.”
