KOTZSCHMAR JUBILEE.
Our old friend. Hermann Kotzschmar,
who came among us half a century
ago, finished his studies In harmony and
musical composition under the SUPER
vision of the celebrated musician, Julius
Otto of Dresden. At the same time he
completed course of piano and organ
lessons with Haine, then a well-known
teacher of those instruments. Mr..
Kotzschmar therefore brought to our
city sure-founded knowledge of that
art to which, as teacher and exponant,
he has devoted more than an average
lifetime. His golden jubilee should at
tract great interest and crowded house.
