Hi Everyone,

This is a photo of Ervin Nyiregyhazi and Gloria Swanson before a 1937 concert of Liszt's Piano Concerto No. 2 with Modest Altschuler conducting. This is with license to publicly distribute if one includes the photo credits. The image below is 5978 x 4844 pixels and with fine detail when viewed at actual size.

"PERSONAL PREVIEW: Ervin Nyiregyhazi, dynamic keyboard artist, subdues his famous crashing chords in order not to disturb that pensive look on the face of listening Gloria Swanson. A popular favorite with the Hollywood Motion picture colony, the world famous pianist appears at Trinity Auditorium, Wednesday, January 27, with the Los Angeles Federal Music Project symphony orchestra, in a concert to be widely attended by stage and screen celebrities."
