Mathews Seaford Williamsburg NOTED PIANIST IS Glass, Ordinary and Naxera Cobbs Creek, North and Cardinal Letters To Santa Claus Seaford Letters To Santa Claus 10 BE HEARD HERE John Powell, Who Will Appear in January at College, Is Native Virginian. (Williamsburg Bureau) Although surrounded by a prestige which Is International and places him unquestionably among the world's greatest plonlsta, John Powell, who will appear In the Phi Beta Kappa Hall on January 9, retains a distinct note or Americanism. He was born In Virginia, and is Indelibly marked with the Imprint of the Old South. The folk music of Virginia, he prides himself.

Is his natural heritage. From this source have come the themes of his best compositions, which have been played by orchestras the world over. He be' lieves firmly that the folk music of the American countryside will some day be recognized as the authentic American musical idiom. Powell began the study of the piano in Richmond, at the age of five. His sister was his first teacher.

Later, he continued his studies under Frederick Charles Hahr, who had been a mem ber of the Swedish court and had studied with Kullak and Liszt. Yielding to parental pressure, PoW' ell submitted to a college education before going abroad to complete his iffilcal studies. He even won a de gree from the University of Virginia, together wh a Phi Beta Kappa key. Then he went to Vienna, and be' came a pupil of Leschetlzky. After a period of study in that city he made his debut and won immediate recog nition.

There followed a tour of Europe which took him, as he says "from Glasgow to Budapest." His success everywhere was electric, but even though Europe was ringing with his praises. Powell postponed his New York debut until he felt sure he was ready. Today, Powell Is at the height of his mature powers both as pianist ana composer, since nis initial success in America, he has returned several times for long tours of Europe, including the memorable European tour of the New York Symphony Orchestra, with which he appeared as soloist, playing his own "Rapsodie Negro."
