A recent tribute to the art of Mrs. Thacher appeared In an editorial in the Eugene Register Guard, as follows: "The playing of Mrs. Thacher Is always Interesting. She Is much more than a master of technique. She Is an extremely Interesting and vlvld person. She Is an outstanding student and Interpreter of music; and ft Is quite a significant thing that this program has been shaped by requests. Music lovers do not for get Mrs. Thacher'a playing. They carry away memories of the music she has played. They want to hear It again. Hence the program of re quests. "At this recital there will be an I opportunity to pay tribute to a mu-J slcian of real distinction. For many years Mrs. Thacher has given gener ously of her time and talents to this community where she lives. But her influence as a musician has extended far beyond this community and this state. She Is a modest person who detests poses. She has not sought the spotlight. But In this country and abroad she Is recognized, among those who really know, as an artist whose work has soundness, original ity and depth. The prestige which this city enjoys Is due In no small way to her work. "As usual, this concert will be a gift of Mrs. Thacher to her friends and the public. It will be a mem orable event."
