Yet in all the years he has been performing, he was late to but one concert. That was his first, when he was a student at the Odessa Imperial Academy and only ten years old. The prize pupil, on that occasion, was to play for a select audience. The patrons arrived, the orchestra tuned up, hut the prize pupil still did not appear. Panic-stricken, the director made a systematic search of the building only to discover the young artist locked in a room on the top floor. Obliv­ ious to time or place, he was busily practicing an etude. The director, not stopping for an ' explanatiOn, hustled the boy onto the stage, and the latter earned himself thunderous applause for hi s performance of the Wieniawski Con­ certo. Later, it was found that jealous class­ mates, after taunting Elman, had chased him into the room and then locked him in. A few years later, Elman first attracted the attention of Leopold Auer.

  • THE NAFF COLLECTION (Location: Range 4, Section 5 – NR Workroom)
    THE NAFF COLLECTION (Location: Range 4, Section 5 – NR Workroom) The Naff Collection is an accumulation of programs, autographed photographs, posters, folders, booklets, announcements and a few other items which tell the story of professional theater in Nashville between the years 1900 and 1960. This material was collected by the late Mrs. L. C. Naff during the period in which she served as secretary to the Rice Bureau and later as manager of the Ryman Auditorium. She bequeathed the collection to Francis Robinson, assistant manager of the Metropolitan Opera, who began his career as an usher at the Ryman. On March 27, 1967, Mr. Robinson made the formal presentation of the collection to the Public Library of Nashville and Davidson County, Charles C. Trabue, chairman of the board, and Marshall Stewart, chief librarian. The public was invited to this ceremony at which the collection was on display. The materials had been listed by chronological periods and arranged by Ann Dorsey, head of the reference department, Edward Durham and Terry Hudson. After the material had remained on exhibit for one month, it was packed for storage. In January 1971, it was decided that the collection should be classified and indexed so that it might be more readily available to researchers and other interested parties. The holdings in the Naff Collection have been classified as follows: NAFF COLLECTION CLASSIFICATIONS Advertising Announcements Descriptive Folders Letters and Telegrams Librettos Newspaper Clippings Photographs Posters Programs: Concerts Dances Lectures Miscellaneous Musical Comedies Operas Operettas Orchestras Plays Recitals Souvenirs Variety Realia Scripts Souvenir Booklets The subject headings of the various collections will most likely lead to desired information, particularly if the medium of a performer is known.
