very faithful to its plan TO give
young artists a chance TO be heard
and has brought a great deal OF
fine talent TO the city. Since this
nonprofit venture has succeeded
so well, it would seem that it

seeking a career and the club has
been courageous in taking def

some experience behind them.

Three Scarlatti "Sonatas" were
first offered, and here the clarity
