Dur i n g his undergraduate
days the young man was di
vided between a career in pro
fessional Soccer and the life of
a concert singer.
For a while he thought he
could combine them. His plans
were changed when, in a soccer
game, an opponent' hurtled into
him'and broke his nose.
Realizing that future injuries
of
,this sort could permanently
ruin his singing career, he de
voted himself entirely to voice
study with Mrs. J. W. Beckman.
With the encouragement of
his teacher, Dyer-Bennet jour
neyed to Sweden to hear the
ancient troubadour, Sven Scho-
Lander. Deeply impressed, he
set - about developing a reper
toire of his own in the then un
developed field of American
and English ballads - and folk
songs. .

by the night clubs of New York,
his fame spread rapidly after his
initial appearance at. Town Hall

soon well known to audiences
from coast to coast.
