Harry Belafonte, today, at the pinnacle of a distinguished career, defies categorical definition of his art. The content and quality of his presentations cannot be classified as belonging to one specific group, for Belafonte's art relates to

everyOne.

Age, social standing, geographic location, language differences form no barrier to the sound and the feeling of his art.

Nipsey Russell, one of the most literate of America's funny men, joins Harry Belafonte, for the first time, in a concert tour, with this engagement. The prolific Mr. Russell, whose easy verbiage punctuates his

skill as a man of comedy, is a most natural choice for featured performer in this tour, for he is of that limited coterie of artist who draws their humor from experience. Originally a dancer, he has translated his talent at terpsichory into a fool-proof formula in winning laughter. He adds that vital ingredient in volume to this production.

Mr. Belafonte is joined by a new voice in this production ... Nana Mouskouri from Greece. The delineator of

a.

fresh and vibrant style, she sings fluently and with feeling in French, German, Italian, Spanish and English in addition to her native Greek tongue. She is a welcome addition to the Belafonte pattern of perfec· tion and sheer artistic beauty.

To see Harry Belafonte in person is more than an evening in the theatre ... it is time spent in communi·

cating with one's fellow, in understanding and practicing what we call our daily existence ... it is an ear attuned to the footstep of experience and the heartbeat of expression.

Here is Harry Belafonte, the magical man of many moments.
