Tuesday, February 28, 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON MAIL TRIBUNE THREE Versatile Artistry Displayed by Soloist By RICHARD D. WERNER Claramae Turner . sang last night at Medford High school auditorium for members of the Jackson County Civic Music as sociation. But ' actually, she did more. She displayed a uniquely versa tile artistry enhanced by a keen intelligence, and a high order of 'histrionics coupled with a magnetic personality. Her first group . in English was excellent, especially the Ap palachian mountains folk song, "Black is the color of my true love's hair." The phrasing was of a high order. The German group of Mahler and Strauss was superb. Miss Turner's delineation left noth ing to be desired. "Les Lettres" from Massenet's cpera, "Werther" brought out a strong and intense dramatic quality which was enthralling. We would have been happy if she had immediately repeated it. In her Spanish group Miss Turner brought forth a true Moorish coloring which was a delight. The aria from "The Medium" by Menotti, though not great music, was made to sound great by her dramatically understated acting. in the final English group. Miss Turner displayed another facet of vocal tone coloring of which she has many. She delighted her audience and won them by purely musi cal means, tonal coloring, inter pretation, musicianship, phras ing and a personality warm and vital. Carl Fuerstner, Provo, Utah, accompanied in a truly artistic and professional manner, giving excellent support and never in truding a' fine art in itself.
