Virtuoso's optimism reflected in new series
One of uie persons most op-timistic about the future of Canadian stage and concert performers is an individual who is himself making a distinguished contribution in support of that optimism.
George Zukerman is well known to Vancouver music-lovers, not only as bassoon soloist wath the Vancouver Symphony orchestra, and as the individual to whom Murray Adaskin dedicated his bassoon concerto which Zukerman played in 1961, but also as manager of his own North Shore concert agency which for a number of years has been instrumental in bringing world famous performers to many Western Canadian communities.
Now Mr. ilukerman has intr duced a new aspect to his co cert agency business by inau urating Vancouver's first Can dian Artists series. An extensic

of his faith in Canadian talei the new series will bring Vancouver a s'parkling "pac age" of all - Canadian artistp pianist Richard Gresko, Can dian Opera company's "Cosi Fi Tutte," the Grands Ballets Ca^ adiens and contralto Mauret Forrester.
It all began a number of y.eaj ago when Mr. Zukerman start* receiving letters from would-1 Canadian artists asking for chance to perform. **I had alwaj contended that our artists we] the equal of those from abroJ gnd should be given the oppc tunity to play," said the Britis born musician. "The trouble that in most cases, even the m( talented Canadian performs did not know how to promc themselves properly."
"In order to be successful artist must realize that he to compete," Mr. Zukerman s£ "Canadians have the talent there are other things of equa great importance such as hi ing good promotional mater and being prepared to go on road." As an example of wl he meant he pointed to the dt piano team of Rene Morrise and Victor Bouchard, two Frfei Canadians who are exceptiona fine musicians whose t a 1 e n would be limited to large c audiences because you just d( find two grand pianos in mj small towns. This problem solved by obtaining a truj engaging a truck driver 0 incidentally can't stand mus and taking with them to remotest Canadian villages tjj nine-foot Baldwin grands. Ai result, for the second conse|| tive year these Canadian troi ers will bring their art to ar^ which previously would h a been bypassed.
Mr. Zukerman himself is artist who has had much expj ience "on the road". Last y< he toured Europe giving ct certs in Copenhagen, Helsinj Glasgow, Paris and Rome, al was featured on BBC in Lond^ On this continent he was sol( at the Santa Cruz festival, al appeared with the Pro AJ orchestra in Toronto, as well with orchestras in Edmont^ Regina, Saskatchewan and toria.
The "minor league" wo^ traveller is not saying yet wl is on his agenda for this com^ season though he did admit tl he was spending his spare ments studying Russian Japanese. And he did reveal tl Overture Concerts will pres^^ nearly 240 concerts in 63 tovj and another 120 concerts to colleges in the Pacific northwc
