MITCH MILLER, famed star of
his own TV show for several years,
brings his musical show to the
Masonic Auditorium 8:20 p.m.
Jan. 31. By the time he was six
years old Miller was playing
Bach two-part inventions on an
enormous square piano which his
parents had bought for $15. In
high school, where musical in-
struments were provided, Mitch
found himself left with an oboe
after other pupils had grabbed the
Lore popular instruments. Few
adults, much less a 12 year old,
have the courage to tackle the
oboe, but Miller took up the chal-
lenge. Soon he was receiving
scholarship lessons at the famed
Eastman School of Music and
playing in the high school orches-
tra. At 15, Miller was chosen to
play second oboe in the highly re-
garded Eastman School Symphony.
