'AGE EIGHT Grn to Present Concert S:4l.ing Atop Telephone Book Erroll Garner, one of the most dynamic jazz pianists of this era, is 5 foot 2 inches tall, very tailored and always sits on a telephone book in order to reach the keyboard. Garner will appear at - 8 p.m. Sunday in Recreation Hall sponsored by the University Artist Series. Tickets are still available at the Hetzel Union desk. Garner does not belong to any one school of jazz, but is -universally respected by his fellow musicians for his h:gh level and individuality of work. According to Don Nelsen, fea• lure writer for the New York Sunday News, two qualities contribute to Garner's popu larily: his heavy emphasis on the melody of a tune and the GARNER infectious rhythmic swing which could "set a-stomping the feet of a wooden Indian. "One would have to be un conscious not to be affected by the insistent, uninhibited, romp ing pulsation he puts down," Nel sen said. When asked during an inter view if he could read any music, Gacner replied, "I can't read at all. Not even a note. I can't even read that five and dime sheet music. I can tell you how pretty A looks, that's all.' Garner had some experience with music lessons but his teacher soon realized, when Garner insisted on playing notes that were not in the score, that he was merely playing what he had heard and not wh7l he saw before him. The tf'acher was so upset that made Garner's parents take back half of the money they had paid for the lessons. Garner'; older brother had no such difficulty and today he is a professional pianist and ar ranger. Garner, at 36, is still unmarried and, from all reports, intends to remain single. "He appears most content to be a rolling stone, meet ing people, seeing things and .gen erally having a .ball for himself. This fierce enthusiasm for life romes through in his playing," Nelsen said. Garner is now touring the COM-t -hy under the sponsorship of Sol Hurok ~ a nd he is the first jazz man that Hurok has promoted.
