Rtidolf Serkin's Success
Attributed to Wise Parent

DAILY OFFICIAL BULLITIN
!
Eudolf Serkin, who will give a
ano recital at 8:30 p.m. Friday
Hill Auditorium, may owe much
his success to a father who
ew how to say 'no.'
Time after time as a boy Serkin
yard his father tell eager agents,
Pe want no child prodigy-Ru-
If must first become an artist."
* * *
AT FIVE Serkin played well
ough to have earned an appreci-
le sum if his parents had chosen
exploit him as a prodigy.
But his father, despite the
uamily needs, resisted the temp-
ition to launch his gifted
oung son on a career.
When Serkin was eight, the emi-
nt Viennese pianist, Alfred
uenfeld, heard him play. Gruen-
d's enthusiasm over the young
pianist brought glittering offers
from astute concert agants.
* * *
HOWEVER, on Gruenfeld's ad-
vice, Serkin was sent to Vienna for
a period of severe training.
Serkin immediately became a
celebrity when he made his de-
but in Vienna at the age of
twelve, but again his father re-
fused to send his child on con-
cert tours.
After several more years of
study, under Arnold Schoenberg,
Serkin set out on his first con-
cert tours in France, England,
Switzerland, Italy, Spain and Aus-
tria.
Tickets for the concert may be
purchased at Burton Tower in
the offices of the University Mu-
sical Society.
