Next Monday evening NJ. Henri Mar
teau. whose splendid violin playing
four years ago will be remembered
with pleasure by those who then heard
him, Will again appear in this city
in concert, under the auspices of the
Schubert club.
Marteau is the same delightful must
clan that he was when last here, but
lie has grown little older, and a little
bigger, and. as a musician, little bet
ter. At that time he gave promise OF
being one of the really great violin
lists and worthy to be classed with
Joachim, Wieniawski and Sarasate.
That promise has been richly fulfilled
and the critics have been eager to ac-
cord him the honor he has won.
The fact that Marteau appears again
under the auspices Of the Schubert
club is an Indication that the coming
concert will attract a large number Of
society people as we'll as lovers of
violin music. An added interest at
taches to the young Frenchman from
the fact that he has attained his ma
jority and has been a soldier in the
interval between his last and the pres
ent tournee. Shortly after coming Of
age, Marteau was called upon to fulfill
the destiny of every young French
man, and gave one year to the service
of his country. He was relieved Of
that service at the termination of the
year, and since then has been giving
concerts in the principal cities Of
Europe, where he has been most cor
daily received and where every atten-
ton has been showered upon him.
