Show Utah Symphony Orchestra Adds Out-of -State Men Utah's Symphony Orchestra, which is expected to be the fin-est fin-est in history, will include just seven out-of-state musicians this year, according to David S. Rom-ney, Rom-ney, managing director. All seven have been signed now and are awaiting the first rehearsals. The list includes Ti-bor Ti-bor Zelig, handsome young Romanian Ro-manian violinist who will become be-come concertmaster; Harold Schneier, first cellist; Wesley Lindskoog, first trumpeter; Martin Mar-tin Zwlck, first clarinetist; Rose Watkins, leader of the second violin section; Joseph Wetzels, cellist and Alice Lunden, bass player. Mr. Zelig and Mr. Schneier were with the Portland, Oregon, Symphony last year, Mr. Lindskoog, Lind-skoog, Mr. Zwick and Miss Wat-kins Wat-kins are from Los Angeles; Miss Lunden is from San Francisco and Mr. Wetzels from Denver. Mr. Wetzels plans to make his home permanently in Salt Lake City now. Interest in the 1949-50 Symphony Sym-phony series is reaching an all-time all-time high and big turn outs are anticipated by the early demand for tickets. The appearance here of Aruthur Rubinstein, Corinne Lacomble, Nathan Milsteln and Frances Magnes presents an attractive at-tractive and enticing program for the winter season. The presentation presenta-tion of Verdi's Requiem which will be held at Kingsbury Hall at the University of Utah with the combined university choruses and the symphony is another high spot on the concert program. With this one exception, all concerts con-certs will be held at the Salt Lake Tabernacle. About half the concerts this year will be held in mid-week at the request of many symphony patrons. The others will be on Saturday evening as last year. With ticket sales brisk, Mr. Romney suggests that all music fans of the state send in ticket requests early. The new symphony sym-phony office is located at 55 West First South in Salt Lake City. |
