NIGHTLY PERFORMANCES Monday - Friday AL CHERNY el • Al Cherny was born in Medicine Hat, Alta., of parents, who came to Canada from a village near Tarnopol in the Ukraine. While in high school he studied classical violin, taking private lessons from a dedicated teacher named Frank Novak. As Al says: "We were for- tunate to have Mr. Novak at the time we did in Medicine Hat. He taught me for four years and selected Me afid some of his other pupils to play in a small symphony orchestra.We learned the fundamentals of musicianship from him. 1 felt good playing the second violin in such places as the Empress -Theatre end the United Church, wearing rented . white tie and tails. We did many'concerts and I played solos at them." In 1953,, Al moved to Wingham, Ont., and played over station CKNX, the hotbed of country music in Southern Ontario. Here, he met Tommy He Mastered the Basics Hunter, Gordie Tapp, and many others who, like him, were strugg ng to make a living in the country music field. Al played shows and dances throughout Southern Ontario, in such places as Durham, Hanover, Chesley, Owen Sound, Kincardine, and knows that part of the country like the back of his violin. During this time, he received an • offer from Cliff Mackay to play on CBC television in Toronto, but thought he wasn't quite ready for network television. , In the early '60s, he got an offer to play on CBC -TV's Country Hoedown series with Tommy Hunter, Gordie Tapp, the Hames Sisters and Tommy Common. When Tommy Hunter was given his own show, Al went with him and has been a regular on The Tommy Hunter Show each Friday night on CBC television since. In the interim, Al competed at the Old Tyme Fiddlers Contest in Shelburne, Ont., where he won the open and novelty classes two years in a row. He's the only Canadian to do so and regrets that the contest rules were changed so that a competitor cannot win both classes during the same contest. Ukrainians love music and Al never forgets it. He always thinks of them when he plays a concert and manages to include a few rousing polkas or sad and haunting ballads in his concert repertoire. • , • ytt. 11; 4 ;;',••`; ft ..„ 4 • !fir- 44 •^ t 011.COull- „,• Ai* EVE• RY •NIGHT Monday - Saturday THE Louise Rockwood Show!!
