Symphony To Perform At Barnes Auditorium From Page 1-A She is a member and soloist with the North Carolina Chamber Players and has also soloed in the Raleigh Bach Festival in 1979 and. 1981. ; Fak Gerhardt Zimmermann was named Music Director and Conductor in May, 1982. Formerly Associate Conduc- tor of the Saint Louis Sym- phony Orchestra, Zimmer- mann is also Music Director of the Canton Symphony Or- . chestra. He joined the Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra as Assistant Conductor in 1974 and held that post for five years. He was selected as one of ten Exxon Arts Endow- ment Conductors in 1975 and held that position until 1978. A favorite guest conductor of orchestras throughout the country, Mr. Zimmermann has appeared often with the Saint Louis Sympheny Or- chestra, as well as the Chicago, Atlanta, Pittsburgh, Louisville, Phoenix, New Jersey, San Antonio, and the American Symphony in New York City. Zimmermann made his Carnegie Hall debut in Robin Masters Earns Degree Robin Lewis Masters, daughter of Betty Patterson Masters and the late Bennett Masters of Kings Mountain received her B.S. in Math Education from Appalachian State University « in December, 1986. She did her student teaching at Shelby High School and is now teaching at New Bern High School, New Bern, N.C. Ri January 1978 conducting the Saint Louis Symphony Or- chestra. “Zimmermann with gusto’ was the way New York Post critic Harriet Johnson greeted this debut, noting “the music surged and sang” and “he kept it alive every moment.” Critics across the country have been lavish in their praise forZimmermann in- cluding paens like ‘ a season of bravos for Zimmermann’ (News and Observer, Raleigh) ‘a robust and lilting account of Strauss’ (Rosenkavalier) Suite ended the program. The love music oozed honest sentiment, not schmaltz. In all, perfect listening for a warm alfresco night.” (The Chicago Tribune). ‘‘Zimmermann...1s a purposeful and sensitive musician who goes to the heart of the score at hand. His performance of Pro- kofiev’s Symphony No. 5 with the Cleveland Orchestra was just such a penetrating in- stance. Zimmermann built this monumental piece with assurance and intensity. He colored the music’s poetry and heroics with equal suc- cess, reveling both in the sweeping passages and the most heartfelt utterances.” (Akron Beacon-Journal) Last May Zimmermann conducted the American Symphony Orchestra fin Carnegie Hall. The Village Voice said, ‘Firebird was given in its original sump- tuous 1910 orchestration...and Zimmer- mann had the American Symphony sounding like the major orchestra it can be when Euterpe rides into Aquarius.” Maestro Zimmermann resides in Raleigh with his wife, Sharon and their two children, Anna Marie and Peter Karl Irum.
