Joyce Wasserman has appeared extensively in concert and as soloist with symphony orchestras here and in Europe, and recently was the soloist on the occasion of the first personal concert tour of Dr. Frank Simon and his famous Armco Radio Band.  She was chosen to demonstrate the Wurlitzer rare violin collection at the New York Convention, and in New York has also appeared as soloist with the Beethoven Association, Town Hall Club, Ohio State Governor's Dinner, Advertising Club, Lowell Thomas Dinner, United States Senators' Banquet, Phi Delta Gamma Convention, at the New York World's Fair for Ohio Day, and the American Music Festival.  Among the many honors bestowed on her is the award of the coveted medal of the Ohio Society of New York.

A familiar figure in the broadcasting studios, Miss Wasserman has played frequently over the National Broadcasting Company, Columbia Broadcasting System and Mutual networks as well as on television broadcasts.

Miss Wasserman's musicianship is of a very high order — her playing is filled with the glow of youth, with a firm, sure tone and a variety of warmth and color.  She compasses the delicacy of a woman with the strength of a man, and in all her work, she evidences good taste reflecting the absorption in her work and her serious innate love of music.  Wherever she appears, the press and public are unanimous in their praise of her outstanding musical and artistic ability.

CINCINNATI

A large audience received the entire program with the utmost enthusiasm.  The breadth and sweep of the first movement, the melodious quality of the second, and the brilliance of the Finale of the Mendelssohn Concerto demonstrated the singing tone of the wide variety of violin technique of the performer.  She displayed a wide range of moods in the short numbers.  Gifted, well trained, and versatile, Miss Wasserman should, and no doubt will, go far—and probably famously—in her chosen career.  She swung into her program with verve, ease, and a rhythmic aplomb, that seemed to mark her as one of those rare souls to whom music becomes a passion, and which offers those who listen, an intent sensation of a vivid personality at the helm, and which makes for musical, artistic and personal success upon the artist's rostrum!—
