A Scholarship Winner
In Recital Nav Is

EMERSON MEYERS, one Of the most
extraordinary pianists Of the younger
generation, although born and bred in
Washington (Georgetown) and now for
more than a year organist of one Of
Washington's churches, is probably
much better known in Baltimore and
elsewhere as a concert pianist than in
washington. Undoubtedly this is largely
because Emerson had been studying at
the Peabody. institute since he was II
years. old, and is still engaged in his
studies there. Although still under vot-
ing age, Meyers is considered by the
faculty at the Peabody to be an unusu-
ally promising pianist of the day.
