Gifted Uruguayan
Pianist Is Heard in
Sparkling Recital
By Alice Eversmon

The gifted Uruguayan pianist,
Alba Martinez Prado, was heard in
recital at the Pan American Union
last night before an audience in
vited by the Charge d'Affaires Of
Uruguay and Sonora de Montero de
Bustamante. Miss Martinez Is the
official representative of the Ma
tional Council of Education of her
country and has come to the United
States to study methods of music
teaching here. She is also pursuing
her own study on fellowship at
Westminster Choir College of Music
in Princeton, N. j., although she
has wide reputation in Uruguay as
concert artist.
That she is a virtuoso performer
with a feeling for style was demon
strated last night in her program
which opened with Beethoven's
Sonata in c Major, Op. 2, No. g."
continuing in the first group with
Liszt's "Sonette 104 del Petrarca"
and three numbers by Chopin. Her
playing of the two final movements
Of Beethoven's early sonata, written
with the design to call on the pian-
lists full capabilities, showed clean
cut velocity and dramatic power,
both qualities being present with
brilliant effect also in Chopin's
"Ballade in G Minor" and the Polo
naise in A Flat Major"
There is a sparkling fiuency in
her presentation remarked through
notable dynamic resources which she
employs with taste. Their use in
the first part of the program was
of interesting variety and she cap
tured with sensitive feeling the poe
try of the Liszt "Sonette.' But in
the three works by Uruguayan COM
posers-Cluzeau Mortets romanti-
cally tinted "Evocacio Criolla," Fa-
bini's "Triste" and Giucci's Can
dombe"-her tone took on an
irridescent simmer of great beauty.
These works by representative Uru-
guayan composers are gems Of their
kind, polished in structure and full
Of atmosphere.
The program was brought to a
close with Gershwins Two Prel-
udes," Ravels "Jeux d'eau" and
Debussy's "Feux d'artifice," all three
admirably suited to the brilliant
technique and style of the talented
artist.
