Mr.. Theodore Arnheiter Creates q Very
Favorable Impression-othsr abe
In the North Baptist Chuch last even-
ing Mr.. Theodore Arnheiter, a young
violinist Of this city. gave a very praise
worthy performance. Hitherto known
among the amateur ranks, Mr.. Arnheiter
has now launched into the professional
sphere. which ne certainly gives great
promise Of adorniug. One thing in Mr..
not be mistaken--he is u player of no
mean ability. OF purse there
were faults, but these were COM
pletely e-vershadowed by the many
good points in his perform ancs, For u
first piece he played De Beriot's "Scene
de Ballet" a good example Of the French
masters fantastic, graceful style. While
Mr.. Arnheiter's tone production is some
what thin aud coloriess, his technique is
excellent. In playing the stacoatesd arr
peggios found in the middle movement
he de demonstrated his knowledge of good
bowling. The arpeggios were clean, light,
and the inton ton was excellent. For
an encore be played q sweet little "B err
ceuse-Slav," by Neruda, delicately and
feelIngly executed. In the second part the
young violinist produced the first move
ment from Rode's Eighth Concerto"
This piece, more OF a study than y NOR
cedu dc salon. was carefully and intelli-
gently played, aud added greatly to the
very favorable impression which MIR.
Arm heitsr's work created throughout.
He afterward took part in a trio from
Haydn for violin, cello and piano. the
remaining instruments being played by
Messrs. E. Wagner and E. J. Gosebl res
