Rildia Bee O'Bryan's 95th birthday - private moments with Van Cliburn, his mother and friends.
Rildia Bee O'Bryan Cliburn, the mother of Van Cliburn and his only piano teacher until he was 17, died in August 1997 at All Saints Episcopal Hospital in Fort Worth. She was 97 and lived in Fort Worth. The cause was a stroke.
VAN CLIBURN remarked at a wake for his mother that he had had a "mystical experience" on stage half a continent away the day before she died.
At the wake for Rildia Bee O'Bryan Cliburn in Fort Worth, the pianist described having an overwhelming feeling about his mother as he walked on stage at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York on Tuesday, The Associated Press reported. She had suffered a stroke five days earlier.
"I knew she was in trouble," he said. "When I got through the last encore, I rushed to the dressing room to call and she had stabilized and I knew she was with me."
