Early yearsBorn in the Yorkville neighborhood of New York City,[2] Klein was the daughter of a German-Catholic father and a Hungarian-Jewish mother.[3] As early as 1926, she was playing violin on radio stations WPCH[4] and WJZ in New York City.[5] She graduated with honors from the Juilliard School, then known as the Institute of Musical Art, and she advanced her education in music as a fellowship student at the graduate school of the institute.[6] She was awarded the Fontainebleau Grand Prix scholarship to study music in Paris, but she gave it up to pursue a professional career.[7] CareerWhen Klein was 14 years old, she debuted at The Town Hall in New York City. Among the members of the audience was Spitalny, who at the time was conductor of the orchestra at the Capitol Theater. Although Kaye's grandmother slammed the door in Spitalny's face when he first tried to contact the girl about auditioning for him, she eventually auditioned for him, and he signed her to be the first member of his planned all-female orchestra.[8] Besides being concertmistress for the Hour of Charm Orchestra Evelyn Kaye was "responsible for settling dress, date, and temperament problems" for members of the group.[9] She also arranged most of the group's orchestral and choral music.[7] In addition to her work with Spitalny's orchestra, Kaye performed as a solo artist, debuting at Carnegie Hall in 1937.[6] In the mid-1940s, she became the first woman to perform as guest soloist with the Houston Symphony Orchestra.[10] Personal lifeOn June 12, 1946, Kaye married Spitalny in Margate, New Jersey.[11] The two collaborated as composers of songs, including "Save the Last Dance for Me" and "Pining for You".[6] Kaye and Spitalny settled in a retirement home in Miami Beach following an incident in Rochester, New York, when he collapsed on stage and was taken to the Mayo Clinic for treatment. She remained there after his death and was active in cultural affairs in the Miami area, particularly as a member of the Greater Philharmonic Society's executive board.[12] DeathOn July 8, 1990, Kaye died of heart failure at Mount Sinai Medical Center in Miami Beach, Florida. She was 78.[13] References{{Portal|Biography|New York|Music|Radio|Film}}1. ^[https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0993312/ Evelyn Kaye Klein] at IMDB {{authority control|VIAF=103015248}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Kaye, Evelyn}} {{US-violinist-stub}}2. ^{{cite news|title=Evelyn Klein, Spitalny Concertmistress; Native Of New York City|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/19758433/evelyn_klein/|work=The Morning Call|date=March 5, 1948|location=Pennsylvania, Allentown|page=41|via = Newspapers.com|accessdate = May 2, 2018}} {{Open access}} 3. ^{{cite news|last1=Von Maurer|first1=Bill|title=Evelyn and Her Magic Violin|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/19758637/evelyn_klein/|work=The Miami News|date=May 5, 1978|location=Florida, Miami|page=D - 1|via = Newspapers.com|accessdate = May 2, 2018}} {{Open access}} 4. ^{{cite news|title=WPCH Manhattan--273|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/19814587/evelyn_kaye_klein/|work=The Brooklyn Daily Eagle|date=November 13, 1926|location=New York, Brooklyn|page=4}} 5. ^{{cite news|title=WJZ (Manhattan, 455)|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/19814412/evelyn_kaye_klein/|work=The Brooklyn Daily Eagle|date=January 2, 1926|location=New York, Brooklyn|page=4|via = Newspapers.com|accessdate = May 4, 2018}} {{Open access}} 6. ^1 2 {{cite news|title=Evelyn Klein Spitalny, Violinist, Is Dead at 79|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1990/07/13/obituaries/evelyn-klein-spitalny-violinist-is-dead-at-79.html|accessdate=2 May 2018|work=The New York Times|date=1990|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20180502212304/https://www.nytimes.com/1990/07/13/obituaries/evelyn-klein-spitalny-violinist-is-dead-at-79.html|archivedate=2 May 2018|location=New York, New York City}} 7. ^1 {{cite news|last1=La Hay|first1=Wauhillau|title=Spitalny's First Lady|url=http://www.americanradiohistory.com/Archive-Radio-Life/40s/46/Radio-Life-1946-10-20.pdf|accessdate=4 May 2018|work=Radio Life|date=October 20, 1946|pages=8, 32, 39}} 8. ^{{cite news|last1=Roberts|first1=Jack|title=Phil Spitalny, Evelyn Find Miami Magic|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/19778032/phil_spitalny_evelyn_kaye/|work=The Miami News|date=March 7, 1968|location=Florida, Miami|page=3|via = Newspapers.com|accessdate = May 3, 2018}} {{Open access}} 9. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/19763573/evelyn_klein/|title=Evelyn Maintains Harmony Among 35 Girl Musicians|last1=Kerr|first1=Adelaide|date=November 6, 1943|work=The Mercury|accessdate=May 2, 2018|agency=Associated Press|location=Pennsylvania, Pottstown|page=4|via=Newspapers.com}} {{Open access}} 10. ^{{cite news|title=Evelyn Kaye Helps Spitalny Manage Band|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/19790836/evelyn_kaye/|work=The Evening Sun|date=March 11, 1946|location=Maryland, Baltimore|page=6|via = Newspapers.com|accessdate = May 3, 2018}} {{Open access}} 11. ^{{cite news|title=Phil Spitalny Marries Evelyn Kaye, Soloist|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/19790154/evelyn_kaye/|work=The Times|agency=United Press|date=June 19, 1946|location=California, San Mateo|page=2|via = Newspapers.com|accessdate = May 3, 2018}} {{Open access}} 12. ^{{cite news|title=Evelyn|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/19762185/evelyn_klein/|work=The Miami News|date=May 5, 1978|location=Florida, Miami|page=3D|via = Newspapers.com|accessdate = May 2, 2018}} {{Open access}} 13. ^{{cite news|title=Deaths|url=http://www.americanradiohistory.com/hd2/IDX-Business/Magazines/Archive-BC-IDX/90-OCR/BC-1990-07-23-OCR-Page-0096.pdf|work=Broadcasting|date=July 23, 1990|page=102}} 13 : 1911 births|1990 deaths|American violinists|Jewish violinists|20th-century violinists|20th-century American musicians|Women violinists|20th-century women musicians|Jewish American musicians|American people of German descent|American people of Hungarian-Jewish descent|Juilliard School alumni|People from Yorkville, Manhattan |
