Outstanding Woman Violinist
To Be Presented Wednesday
American Trained*
Carroll Glenn
Subs for Kreisler
Carroll Glenn, outstanding young
woman violinist, will be presented
in a concert on the spring fine artii
series in the main auditorium Wed-
nesday. April 20.
Ranked a* "America's greatest
woman violinist" and "glamour 1
girl of the concert world," Miss
Glenn received one of her greatest |
honors recently when she was in- i
vited to substitute for Frit* Kreis-
ler as soloist with the Kansas City
Philharmonic Orchestra.
Was Child Prodigy
The child prodigy sensation, now
barely out of her teens, was reared
on a plantation in South Carolina.
and evidenced early her musical
talents. When her family decided
that she needed more advanced1
training than could be offered
there, they moved to New York
where she was enrolled in the
Institute of Musical Art. After com-
pleting the courses offered there
on scholarship awards, she won a
fellowship at the Juillard Graduate
School to round out her musical
education.
Public recognition came in 1938
when Miss Glenn was the sole win-
ner of the Walter W. Nnuinburg
Foundation Award. Her perform-
ance at the attendant Town Hall
recital won her the Town Hall
award for 1939 and an engagement
on the 1939-40 Town Hall Endow-
ment Series, one of the country's
most renowned concert courses.

This year he went to San An

plays "sweet swing" for radio,
