Pianoist Madame King Delights Waterloo Audience
A large crowd greeted Madame Rive King at First Congregational church in Waterloo for her second appearance. The celebrated pianist offered Mendelssohn and McDowell classics with masterful touch and multiple encores. Her self composed works earned publishers $30,000 in royalties, and she shared lessons with Waterloo music students at Ross Conservatory. Born in Cincinnati, her noble-born father once clashed with aristocratic relatives over his marriage to her opera singer mother.
