•s at 8:30 p.m. Wednesday in Schwab
Quartet are Primrose, who has been
ine as "t
le world's finest viola player";
Victor Babin, pianist; Szy / mon
Goldberg, violinist; and Nicolai
Graudan, cellist.
Primrose, who is now recog
nized as the person chiefly re
sponsible for re-establishing the
viola as a solo instrument, began
his career as a prodigy violinist
at the age of 10. He made his first
public appearance in Glasgow,
Scotland, the city of his birth, in
the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto.
His playing was so impressive
that he was 'sent to London to be
[ educated, still in the violin.
Prefers Viola
But while he played concert af
ter concert on his violin, Prim
rose was irresistably attracted to
the mellow tones of the viola.
Finally, on the advice of Eugene
Ysaye, the Belgian violinist, Prim
rose's father allowed him to ex
change the violin for its contralto
sister, the viola.
From 1930 to 1935, as the violist
of the London String Quartet,
Primrose toured Europe, South
America, and the United States.
After the Quartet disbanded, he
returned to London for his debut
as solo violist under Sir Thomas
Beecham.
Joins NBC Symphony
At about this time, the NBC I
Symphony was being formed in,
New York City for Toscanini, and;
instrumentalists were being hand-t
picked. While searching for a,
violist, officials heard one of
Primrose's recordings. The offi
cials offered Primrose the post;
he accepted, and remained as
chief viola player for five years.
Since leaving the Sythphony in
1942, Primrose has devoted his
time to solo work. He has com
missioned a number of viola
works from contemporary com
posers, and made several record
ings for Columbia and RCA Vic
tor records.
