Miss Mae Potvin, Seattie's famous young
pianist returned TO her home last Sunday
after an absence OF three years, most OF
"a mich time was spent in Chicago. During
her absence Miss Potyin has given a large
number OF concerts with great success and
has also taken a repertoire course from
Madame Bloomfield Zeisler, the world
most famous lady pianist. and undouoted-
~ the finest teacher in America today.
This course, which was also shared IN hy
a number OF noted pianists and teachers
in and about Chicago, is an innovation or
Madame Zeisler and has become quite fam
Gus In Chicago. The one great reason why
these courses have become so famous is
that the pupils OF this great artist have
an opportunity to receive instructions in
the Leschetizky method. of which Madame
Zeisler and Paderewsk are probably the
greatest opponents living today Miss Pot
win had the benefit OF this course of train
ing for over two months and was highly
complimented by the great madame. who
told the young lady that she Was techni-
cally perfect, and with a short European
experience and course under the great
Issschetizky her fame and fortune would
be made. Miss Potyin regards this ex-
perience with Madame Zeisier and her as
soc.ation with the great pianist as the
most delightful of her life, and feels that
her labors for so many years have borne
fruit During her residence in the great
Western metropolis Miss Potyin has lived
in a musical atmosphere, and she left be-
hind her many admirers and friends. She
also had nice class, but the desire TO see
her parents and old friends was
too great and she finally decided to
journey westward. where she will remain
for the summer months. In her concert
work Miss Potvin achieved great success
both in Chicago and New York. receiving
most fiatter.ng comments from the press
of those cities, the Chicago Record. lead
ing morning paper, devoting half coli
umn and publishing large picture. Miss
Potvin counts among her friends N Bos-
ton, New York and Chicago the great
teacher. Otto Rendix: the famous. critic
and pianist, Amy Fay. the equally great
pianist and teacher, W. ". Sherwood: the
peerless pianist. Nine. Zeisier. and has the
warm friendship and kindly advice OF
Theodore Thomas and his wife. Miss
Potvin Will take limited number of pupils
IN Seattle, and hopes to give a concert
within a fortnight probably at the Seattle
theater. at which she will give some OF her
best numbers. An additional attraction to
the concert viii be the first appearance
OF Miss Hettie Hamilton. of this city. who
is studying whistling with Root, OF CHI
cage. Miss Potvin says she never consid-
cred whistling an art until she heard East
ern artists and especially Miss Hamilton.
who has great future. These two young
women, both OF whom will some day make
name in the musical world for their
home. should draw full house on their
joint appearance.
