AMUsICAL TREAT
Ysaye, the Great Violinist, at the
Tabernacle Tonight

Tonight at Simpson tabernacle the great
Ysaye makes his appearance. accompanied
by Gerardy and, Lauchaume, the 'cellist
and accompanist.
Three years ago Ysaye came to us as
stranger, and in one brief visit established
himself the greatest violinist of modern
times. To have once achieved the sue
cess which Ysaye did is quite enough to
feel assured of welcome any time. He is
but 80 years of age, of massive build and
striking personality. He is man of pro-
digious intelligence and great thoughts, but
unless aroused into enthusiasm is silent
man; and seems to boz enthralled in the
same strange atmosphere of solitude that
has so often been noticed as characteristic
of Paderewski.
Ysaye does not do much in the way of
1.-THE Arkansaw Traveller" or "Old Rosin
the Bow" but when it comes to clawing
the classics out OF, one of Mr.. Stradivarius'
best violins he approaches the peerless
class in his own peerless and poiseful way.
How the instrument sings to one who has
a soul foe music 1t weeps, it sobs, it
chuckles, it groans, it breaks into loud guf
flaws, and then follows flood of tears
the music of rain among the leaves-strains
tom-like fantasies that weave about ones
heart, exquisite sensations that fill the
eyes with tears. Great is the violin, and
when Ysaye lays it to his cheek and puts
the bow across its melodious strings, the
soul of it awakens, and its spirit is alive
and glad 1t is living.
Jean Gerardy, the young Belgian violon-
cellist, is a revelation as an artist AL
though but 20 years of age, he ranks
among the greatest of! the day. Jean made
his first public appearance In Liege as
soloist in 1885, Directly after he played at
Spa, Lila, x-la-Chapelle and in Antwerp,
where he performed the trio of Rubinstein
in conjunction with Paderewski and Ysaye.
The fact that the boy, when 10 years of
age, was chosen by these great artists to
play with chem was an extraordinary
compliment, unprecedented In the annals
Of music. Two years later, when only II
years old, he was invited to play with the
Vienna Philharmonic orchestra, of which
Hans Richter is the director, the youngest
artist ever adjudged worthy of the honor.
Anne Lachaume, the distinguished pian-
dst, who comes with Ysaye and Gerardy,
will receive warm welcome by the host of
friends that he made while on his initial
visit to this city with Ysaye.
