Monday that a rehearsal earlier in the evening with Abravanel and the orchestra had been nothing short of "thrilling experience." Grant, incidentally, regards "hard work" as the major factor in the success he enjoys at the keyboard. His family and friends hail his persever ance and courage as big contributors to his climb, while Abtavanel says the Utah pianist fills the three prerequisites of a piano yirtu-- oso "beautifully." These the m4estro lists as "born talent, hard work and emotional fullness." One is as- important as the other,' he claims, "with the latter perhaps the most difficult to achieve. You may have talent and may achieve fine technique with hard work, but with no emotional fullness, or expression, there is little or no artistry." and help on the home Encouragement See JOHANNESEN on page B2 Deaths-209Reprose- te 4010,00.144,410.7.; ;;;;trogW000lAell .:.::'.., iA, V: FLb 11 ty .: ' Ir , t VOSMOIRMNOWAlx:$4SAtke,(M Sevier School District has been selected for a pilot study on teacher merit rating.
