Young and Talented
\/HILE in Dunedin on their concert tour, Rénais Gage and Raymond Wirdsor gave a combined recital from 4YA. Possessed of tie inestimable qualit es of youth and enthusiasm, these performers, together with the Dunedin ‘cellist, Wilfred Simenauer, gave Dunedin eudiences something fresh and new in the way of talent, and proved that there is much sterling worth to be found right here in New Zealand. I could have wished that M ss,Gage had chosen songs not so well-known for her radio recital; her voice comes over the air with great clarity and no loss of its pure and lovly quality. Raymond Windsor was not particularly happy in his first item, the Chopin study known. as the "Black | Keys," but wth the Nocturne in G he settled down and showed those qualities of interpretation for which his playing has alweys been noted; he finished his recital in fine style with the exacting Scherzo in B Flat Minor. It wes a dsappointment not to hear the ’cellist in this recital; all three of these young performers are only 18 years of age, end Wilfred Simenauer, performer "upon an instrument heard all too rarely, handles. his ‘cello with intelligence and sincerity of interpretation whch augur a splendid future for him.
