DETROITER-PANTHER TROT

MISS MILDRED WALDMAN

Miss Mildred Waldman, diminu-
tive pianist, was, at the age of
10, a soloist with the Chicago
Symphony Orchestra. Since then,
she has appeared with many of
the leading orchestras in the coun-
try and wherever she has played
has received flattering acclaim.
"Brilliant, fluent, tonally lovely,
a master of technic, astonishing
amount of romantic dash" are just
a few of the phrases used by
critics regarding her perform-
ances.
At its annual artists concert

on Sunday evening, Jan. 26, at
the Detroit Institute of Art, the
Music Study Club will present
Miss Waldman and Miss Martha
Lipton, contralto, winner of the
1939 contest of the National Fed-
eration of Music Clubs.
The last report meeting will
be in the form of a luncheon
meeting at the home of Mrs.
Aaron Fellman, 1645 W. Chicago
Blvd., on Friday, Jan. 24, at 1
p. m. Miss Martha Lipton will be
the honored guest and all mem-
bers are urged to be present at
this final rally.
