Piano Trio To Play In Medford The American Piano Trio, one of the most interesting ensembles of the American concert stage, is the next attraction scheduled to appear this season in Medford under the auspices of Jackson County Civic Music association. The concert, which will be held in Medford Senior High school auditorium, will be the third in the current music series, and it is expected to be one of the Qhighlights of the current series. The trio is made up of three brilliant keyboard artists, each of whom has had established an enviable reputation for himself, or herself, as soloist on the re cital stage before joining with the others to form this outstand ing piano trio. The founder, and sole male, Stephen Kovacs, is a former win ner of the famous European Franz Liszt piano competition, a pupil of Hungary's leading com poser, Zoltan Kodaly, the leader for four years of the extraor dinarily successful Four Piano Ensemble that toured from coast to coast. Annette Corot is a schol arship student of Mme. Olga Samaroff, who did so much to bring music to the millions, has given successful recitals in Paris, l New York and on the American radio. Esther Fernandez is win ner of an impressive list of awards, a scholarship student at New York's Juilliard School and the Berkshire Music center in Tanglewood, and has been greeted from coast to coast as soloist with the highest critical acclaim. The ensemble is famous for its unique programs. Colorful, dy namic, and rhythmically varied, they range from Bach to boogie. In addition to pieces which were originally written for three pi anos by such greats as Bach and Mozart, Kovacs has made tran scriptions of some of the best loved works of music literature. One of , the foremost arrangers of music masterpieces for the multiple piano literature, Ko vacs' transcriptions were used extensively by the Four-piano Ensemble in its phenomenally Successful concert tours, and he has made arrangements for most of the leading two-piano teams, Luboshutz and Nemerioff, Bart lett and Robertson, Appleton and Field.
