NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-The
weeks big chance goes to young
Arnaldo Estrella, who is making
his North American debut with
the New York Philharmonic-Sym-
phony under Bruno Walter.
For the first time in history, SO
far as the record shows, pianist
hitherto unknown in this country
has been booked for appearances
in his first season. His name means
STAR" and it seems to be signifi
cant.
Estrella is thin, and looks most
unlike the usual picture of a
Braxfaiar~----fse even has blue eyes
He looks, in fact, very much like
the American composer Aaron
Copeland. He is to make his debut
with the Tchaikowsky B flat Mi
nor Concerto, although he does
not much like Tchaikowsky.
Brahms and Debussy are his ia
VoriteS.
He has had all his study and all
his career in Latin America, but
he knows more about North Amer
lean culture than most natives. He
talks most about Hemingway.
Dos Passos and Steinback, and
when he arrived, the first place he
asked to be taken to was the Mu-
scum of Modern Art
Estrella is amazed at the num-
Der of places in the United States
that support orchestras or impor-
tant concert courses. In Brazil, he
confesses, there are only IL cities
where concerts can be given -
that is not enough to support a
concert artist, however successful,
so he must supplement his earn
ings with teaching fees, or some
thing else.
And Brazil is, he says, in spite
of her modernists; stiff love
with the standard composers.
Brazil does not ESlrella declares,
know enough about Shostakevich
to form an opinion, and definitely
dislikes SibeliuS. French and
Spanish composers are more to the
Brazilian taste.
In addition to some recitals, Es-
trella will play with these SYM
phonies: Philharmonic, National
washington, d. c., Cincinnati,
Baltimore. Chicago, and Waco,
Texas. The whole thing came
about as another good neighbor
gesture - EStrella was winner in
Super-elaborate contest in Rio
de Janeiro, and the prize was
tour of the United States under
the sponsorship of Columbia Con-
certS.
The funny season.is on. An au-
dience is to hear the first New
York concert by Seattle's John
Cage = concert of percussion in
strllments Gehtirely,yu including
thundersheetsFtemple gongs, string
piato, or OK bells, automobile
brake drums, rice bowls, wind
glass, flower pots, buyers and
among other things, tin cans.

excellent performance of Paul
