one frequently entertained at the
Northport Country Club is George
Copeland, the Boston pianist, who is
recognized by many critics as Amer
icas foremost pianist, and the most
competent interpreter of Debussy
and the modern Russian and Spanish
composers. For several seasons he
had a most attractive studio in Lin
colnville Beach where a large number
of his pupils followed him for study
during the vacation season. Last
summer, however, he did not open
his studio, which stands at the top of
Duck Trap hill, but went to England
where he made such furore that he
has returned there again for the COM

had the pleasure of meeting him or
hearing him play.
