ARADELIA GODDARD, PIANIST.

ARADELLA GODDARD, PIANIST.
Madame Arabella Goddard, ono of the most eminent
pianss that has appeared in England for quarter or
a century was born at ST. scrvan, near St. Malo
Brittany in January 1896. Like all great musicians
her abilities began display themselves almost from
infancy She played a fantasia themes from Mozart's
"Don Juan" at a charitable concert in St. scrvan when
mere child Her promise of future celebrity was so
great that her parents took her to Paris where she
received lessons from the celebrated Kalkbrenner
The oddards aft erward removed to London where the
young pianist was conhded TO the OF Mrs Anderson
of Her Majestys Theatre and at eight years of ago
she performed before the Queen and Prince Albert Her
next teacher was Thaberg, under whose guidance her
progress was astonishing She could play the most
difficult passages at sight and hundreds OF works from
memory. Her first important debut took place in
1870, at Bales concerts in which she made
a decided bit IN a concerto OF Hummei.
Ater asslduous study Of classical music and compost
ton under the guidance Of Macfarren she attained the
foremost position among the piansts of England Her
playing of the sonata in fiat opus 100 has been
eXceed such tour de force, said ChOrley, one of
the best critics of his day, from any lady pianist Of
any country or Of any age VIC cannot recall" She has
appeared frequently at some OF the great German
musical festivals, and at the last Boston jubilee she
made her debut in this country, but under such I'M
favorable circumstances that was impossible for those
who heard her that occasion to form
an idea of her great ability. The piano Sc
lected for her was a monstroslty OF Yankee
for such branch of art piano playing.
Her farewell concert in London took place on February
IL, 1873 and since that time she has given
with unvarying success in Australia and India. Some
years ago she united in marriage to Mr. J. W. Davi
son. the musical critic of the London Times. In the
course OF her distinguished career Nine. Goddard
only mastered all the important works of the greatest
acknowledged Compensation Bach and Handel TO Mo-
Znrt from Mozart to Beethoven Hummel Moschcles
Weber Mendelssohn and Stcrndah Bcnnct-but she has
also introduced in her concerts such composers
Woclh, Dussek, Steibelt &c. giants in their days
She was for years the most popular artist in England
ana was made genuine pet OF the public Sho viii
make her debut in New York early in October.
