The story of John Sebastian is the story of the

John Sebastian conversion of a "hip-pocket" hob­

by into a caredk, and the elevation of the lowly mouth-organ to an honored place in the ranks of symphonic in­struments. Born in Philadelphia, the son of a banker, John Sebastian was graduated from Haverford College and then won a fellowship to study in Europe for two years. S'..?king out for a diplomatic career, the closer he came to being a member of the For­eign Service, the less inclined he fejt to relinquish his musk.

As his knowledge of the harmonica broadened, he revealed an entirely new and untouched fkld in the musk world. He progressed rapidly and. when he was invited to appear on sev­eral important radio programs, he was convinced that "concert', and not the life of a diplomat would be his forte. It was not long before he received other offers. Eugene Oruandy asked him to appear as soloist with the Phil­adelphia Orchestra. This was followed | by appearances with the Rochester Civic Symphony, the NBC Symphony, the New Orleans Symphony Orches­tra and others.

For his debut performance with the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra, Mr. Sebastian has chosen to play the "Street Corner Concerto" by Klein-singer, the "Gypsy Dance** from "Carmen," "Malaguena" and "Roma­nian Rhapsody." The orchestral portion of the program will include the "Overture to Rosamunde," "Mid­summer Night's Dream," "Dance Macabre," Anderson's "Blue Tango." and the "Minuet" by Bolzoni. Dancing in the Mary Seaton Room will follow the concert. IT*
