Rudolph Serkin Debuts with Symphony Rudolf Serkin, one of the great pianists of the twentieth century, will perform in continued symbol of a quest As surely as lite rose from the sea, the future of life depends on it. It is the salient feature of the globe. Its fate is ours. With population rising, some scientists talk of farming the oceans. Others speak of extracting products from igneous rock and seawater. But whatever men may evolve, the role of the sea in the chemistry and health of our planet is crucial. The better we understand it, the better our chances of protecting the ecological balance among all of earth's creatures—from marine life to man. Yet, even while fact displaces mystery, our awe of the sea endures. The pecten shell is an emblem for companies known around the world. But its beauty is no less in its origin than its form. And it reminds us to keep a sense of urgency in the quest for knowledge of our environment. AT THE CENTER, continued a special one night only concert with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and Chorus Tuesday, March 13th at the Civic Center. Featuring an all Beethoven program the concert will be under the baton of ASO Music Director and Conductor Robert Shaw and will spotlight Mr. Serkin in the perennial favorite “Em- porer” Concerto and Fantasia in C minor for Piano, Chorus and Orchestra.
