    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.
