MARIAN ANDERSON
March 22 at the Masonic Audi-
torium. Miss Anderson last ap-
peared in Detroit in 1941.
The star contralto, who is well
on the way to becoming a na-
tional institution, spent the sum-
mer months on her Connecticut
farm, resting for the first time in
six years, refreshing her energies
and replenishing her repertory
which numbers in the hundreds
of songs. The program which she
will present here will include some
of the new selections which she
has added to her vast store of
melodies.
Since the termination of her
last tour, Miss Anderson has been
the target of honors once more.
In March, 1912, she received the
Bok award, the plaque and the
$10,000 check which goes to the
one who has contributed most to
the honor of Philadelphia. This,
her native city, bestowed still an-
other gift upon her when Temple
University conferred an honorary
doctorate of music upon Miss An-
derson. In 1939 the great contral-
to was awarded the Spingarn
medal.
The tour of which this local
concert is a part extends from
October through May, during
which Miss Anderson will pre-
sent more than eighty concerts.
Tickets for her recital in De-
troit are now on sale at Grinnell
Bros. music store, 1515 Woodward
Ave.
