N FAYE F ERGUSON T is with great temerity that I undertake the task of writing a few words of comment on that most inter- esting of youthful personalities Connected with the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music, Miss Faye Ferguson. What marvelous achievement this young girl has at- tained in five short years! Nor is it an exaggeration for me to say that I have suffered a mental fatigue reading her wonderful press notices of this season alone. That feeling of equality which We enjoyed during our high school days seems to be fleeting on soaring wings that are carrying her into an expanse of gray-blue; a gray-blue which has its culmination in the rainbow. Faye Ferguson was born in Ironton, Ohio, where she received her early education. In 1920, under Marcian Thalberg, the celebrated Swiss Pianist, she began her study at the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music. In 1922 she graduated from the Artist Department with high dis- tinction. At the same time through the able training of Miss Helen May Curtis she received her diploma in Dra- matic Art. Since her graduation, while continuing her' studies with Mr. Thalberg, Miss Ferguson has given over fifty concerts under her own management and has ap peared as soloist with the Cincinnati Symphony 0r- chestra, both in Cincinnati and on tour. On November 20th, 1924, she made her debut in Chicago and received the highest praise from all the critics. Maurice Rosen- field of the Chicago Daily news says, Miss Ferguson has a comprehensive technical equipment and her tone has both power and quality . Edward Moore of the Chicago Tribune says, Faye Ferguson gave an elaborate program and showed facility for it . Eugene Stinson of the Chicago Journal makes this comment, Faye Ferguson is young, gifted and promis- ing . ' And I might conclude these press notices with Helen Crooks, criticism, which appeared in the Meridian Mississippi News, The time is not far distant when Faye Ferguson will rank with Hoffman, Bauer, Bloomfield- Zeisler, and others of renown . Shall we not begin to realize what a truly great pianist we have in our midst at the Conservatory? Let us give her the recognition she deserves both as a fellow student of this glorious musical institution and as an artist of iirst rankeE. H.
