Grows Professionally

Miss Arce's career is assured if
she grows professionally as fast now
that she is concertizing as it has to
this point. I believe she is just
twenty-one years of age. It is not
unlikely that she may record great
piano music. If so, she may become
the female enfant terrible through
her singing while she is playing. I
did not find it objectionable but I
was not sitting terribly close to the
stage. Glenn Gould was driven from
the stage by his reaction to his
audience's reaction to his style of
playing. I hope that Miss Arce's
singing, which will sorely try
recording engineers, does not
become a problem in what is likely
to be a brilliant career.
