Kermit Moore, yesterdays
recitaliSt at the Phillips Col
lection, selected a program that
was both imaginative and
challenging but, regretfully, not
altogether flattering to himself.
A former pupil of the late,
great cello teacher, Felix
Salmond and of Paul Bazelaire,
Mr.. Moore is an able player,
equipped with a sizeable left
hand technique.
An unequivocably ideal
performance of Bach's un-
accompanied cello suites IS,
like the unicorn, a NEUROLOGICAL
beast. The secret is to convey
them with such profound
musical insight that technical
limitations don't matter any
more. But this gift. alas, has
been granted to very few. In
the case of Mr.. Moore's pro-
gram opener all of the i'm
possibilities were set out in
clear relief - the awkward
