• Manufacturer: CD • Manufacturer Part Number: CDBY 316171 • SKU: 6801641 • UPC: 837101339674 • Shipping: $1.63 • Description: I enjoyed a happy, wonderfully rich musical childhood in Staten Island, New York, with my mother (a singer and cellist), younger brother (a violinist) and father, a choir director and organist who played viola when needed. At weekly living room concerts with the four of us, my brother and I learned how to bow, acknowledge applause and keep going through mistakes and memory lapses. At age five, I entered a contest sponsored by New York City's Music Education League, winning the silver medal; the gold medal followed two years later. I remember using pedal extenders because my feet couldn't reach the pedals. There were innumerable opportunities to perform during the Depression in the 30s: concerts in the parks, literary society teas, Frick Museum recitals, in churches and at colleges. In 1939, I was the soloist in Grieg's Piano Concerto on "Norway Day" at the New York World's Fair. Later, I played that work under the baton of Grieg's friend Percy Grainger at the Ernest Williams Music Camp in the Catskills. Unforgettable! It was inevitable that the Emile family, of one-hundred-percent-Norwegian heritage, would plan a concert tour of Norway. In 1935, my brother, mother and I gave 26 concerts in the space of a month, followed by a month of visiting relatives and just having fun. From age twelve until I went to Cornell, I studied in New York with the eminent Dutch pianist Albert von Doenhoff. My lessons were hours long, often including lunch and practice time while he played tennis or tended his garden. Von Doenhoff prepared me well for study with Egon Petri, my teacher at Cornell, though his curriculum was very light on French music. While at Cornell, I made my New York debut at Town Hall under the auspices of the University and the Cornell Glee Club. Several important milestones followed in quick succession. I married Sam Hunter, who was awarded the MD, and I received the Artist Diploma-the highest honor given to performers at the Eastman School of Music-with my MA. In 1947 I accepted a teaching position at the University of Minnesota, where many of my students, who were returning from World War II on the GI Bill, were older than myself. I've been blessed with opportunities to perform in the region, with the Minneapolis Symphony (now the Minnesota Orchestra) and other regional orchestras, and in recital with extraordinary colleagues. It has been my privilege to participate in many premieres, including works by Skrowaczewski, Paulus, Schoenfield, Vandervelde, Thomas and Barnett. This commitment to new music came late; though I was surrounded by composers at Eastman, it has been my work with the Jerome Foundation, American Composers Forum and Minnesota Commissioning Club that has stimulated my interest. My involvement with the Boards of several venerable arts organizations has given me great satisfaction and sense of purpose. None is dearer to my heart than The Schubert Club. It's standards of excellence, established by distinguished, strong-willed... |
