JAZZ
PROGRAM SET
George Shearing Quintet to
Appear at University
of Delaware
FRIDAY, MAY Z

The George Shearing Quintet,
one of the foremost modern jazz
ensembles in America, will appear
in Mitchell Hall on the University
of Delaware campus in two con-
certs at 700 and 900 pm, Friday
May z. The programs will be spon-
sored by the Student Government
Association and the Cultural Ac-
tivities Committee. The story of
George Shearing is one of tremend-
Gus talent and courage. Born total
ly blind in the Battersea slums of
London in 1920, he has never con-
sidered his blindness a handicap to
achieving happiness and success in
life. George began studying piano
at the age of five, and showed an
immediate talent and interest in
music. Educated at a school for
the blind in London, George was a
brilliant student and favorite on
the campus. He devoted much of
his time to the study of music
through the Braille method, and
while still in his early teens, his
knowledge of classical compost
tions and his technique at the piano
keys were far beyond his years.
Fascinated by Modern Music
American jazz recordings cap
tured his interest when he was six
teen, and he began experimenting
in the new idiom, fascinated by
the freshness and freedom of mod
ern music. With typical determina-
tion, George turned to the new
music and studied it with great
diligence and enthusiasm even

though it meant beginning all over
again. Recognition first came dur
ing a jam session in London. Per-
forming on both piano and accord
ion, he was a tremendous hit. Jazz
critic Leonard Feather, who con-
Quoted the session, brought George
to the attention of the British
Decca Company, which signed him
to a long-term contract. For seven
successive years, George won Eng
lands top annual jazz poll and was
the nations first ranking jazz art
list. Coming to the United States
in 1947, Shearing overcame many
obstacles before he advanced to
the forefront of American jazz.
Working as an intermission pian-
ist on famed SIND Street, he spent
months in comparative obscurity
before his distinctive style and re-
markable ability received wide
spread attention from the public.
The critics were overwhelmingly
enthusiastic, and suddenly Shear
ing was again the most praised and
provocative instrumentalist in
iazz. With his future in America
assured, he brought his lovely wife
and six-year-old daughter, Wendy,
over from England. Wendy already
shows promise on the piano, and
her father is her proud teacher.
