Does anyone have any biographical information about Betty Paret?
Thanks.
This is an interesting link and I think her name is mentioned:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harp
A search for her name turned up Greater Trenton Symphony Orchestra, where she played as guest harpist in 1930’s. http://www.trentonsymphony.org Maybe they could give you a link to her.
She was a student of Marcel Grandjany, I believe. She lived in
Lloyd Harbor (near Huntington), NY, on the North Shore of LI
through the 1950s. I was, briefly, her student. She was a fine
musician although I fear I provided little credit to her teaching
skills. No fault of hers whatsoever.
Denise, I believe that Mary Brigid Roman, who teaches at Florida State University, was a
student of hers before going to Eastman. She might be able to help you out.
