Preâ€"Easter Broadcasts From WMBI Preâ€"Easter messages by the Rev. Wilbur M.~ Smith, D. D., dynamic Bertha Ott Concert Management is presenting the worldâ€"known duoâ€"pianâ€" ists Fray and Braggiotti in a two piano recital at the Eighth Street Theâ€" atre, 741 South Wabash Avenue on Sunday afternoon April 12th at 3:30. Fray +and Bmggioz' are . uniquely known for their pi work against the uniform and monotonous two piâ€" arlo (music treatment, developing a blending of their own without the sacâ€" rifice of their respective talents for music. They are the first to present a full evening‘s program of. original transcriptions, with a repertoire great ly varied and even quite advanced. In addition they have contributed their inâ€" fluence in America‘s growing taste for the finer music. Both were classiâ€" cally trained, but also assumed the theory that the great works be popularâ€" ized in order that the Tayman too may become acquainted with it thus stimuâ€" lating an interest for its origmal source. They point out that inasmuch as gigs and waltzes were made immortal by Bach and Chopin, the pepular music of today stands an equal chanee of underlying the symphonies of the fuâ€" ture. Fray and Braggiotti believe that humor has its place in music, and in 1931 they performed Braggiotti‘s cariâ€" catures on the styles of famous comâ€" posers. Their best know n serious works areâ€" Debussy‘s and have built up a large library of original transâ€" criptions. This achievement is known widely throughout the musicâ€"world.
