20 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1925 WALTER SPRY T0 TEACH ON SHORE Noted Pianist and Teacher with Columbia School Walter Spry, well-known pianist and teacher, has been added to the list of instructors who will represent the Columbia School of Music at Winnetka the coming season, where he will teach one day a week. Mr. Spry has been associated with the Columbia School for the past 10 vears and prior to that conducted his own school in Chicago. Wishing to devote his time to the development of advanced students, he joined the Columbia school and took with him many of his associates. This proved to be an important step in the school's progress. Pupils of Mr. Spry have won con- siderable honors in the music world. Miss Margaret Farr, one of his pupil- artistes, won first place in the con- test held under the auspices of the Society of American Musicians two years ago and was given an appearance with the Chicago Symphony orchestra under Frederick Stock. Howard Feiges, a lad of 13 years, and also a pupil of Mr. Fry, played Beethoven's C. minor concert last season with the Little Symphony orchestra under George Dasch. During the past summer, Mr. Spry held a Master Class for pianists at Alabama College, Montevalla, Ala. President Palmer of the college has in- vited him to return next summer. "Lessons in Piano Playing," recently published by the Clayton F. Summy company is a text book from Mr. Spry's pen and reveals his thorough acquaint- ance with music pedagogy. Natural technique, rather than dogmatic system are the secret of his principles of piano technique. He has an immense know- ledge of musical literature, being an authority on the various schools of composition. Several recitals will be given by Mr. Spry this winter in north shore suburbs ; private musicales and public recitals will be included in his program. Among the most important will be that before the University Guild at Harris hall, Northwestern university, on January 4. Mr. Spry believes that Winnetka is fast becoming the music center of the north shore and points to the Win- netka Music club and the Symphony eoncerts given under the direction of George Dasch at New Trier high school as proof of this tendency. GIVES SECOND LECTURE Albert Vail, Baha'i lecturer, will give an address on the subject "The Eter- nal and the New Ten Commandments" Tuesday evening, September 15, at the home of Louis Bourgeois, 536 Sheri- dan road, across from the Baha'i temple foundation.
