I distinguished teacher. At seven he appeared
Tor the first time in public a '-wunderkind"
with great success. For three years Bulow
had the kindness to instruct him in sonata
playing and in every musical and scientific
respect. But necessity compelled the young
Burmester to accept place in an orchestra
at Helslngfors. Here he resolved to devote
himself with iron industry to attain the
excellence he had dreamed of as a boy. He
persevered for four years, working often
twelve to fourteen hours day His position
as soloist In the orchestra was of inestimable
value as it accustomed him to concert rou-
tlne. BY accident an overture Of Paganini
fell into his hands and interested him from
Its technical demands. The study II this piece
and Its success gave him the first suggestion
OF appearing in Berlin in "Paganini even
ing" with hope of reviving the almost for
gotten Paganini technic But his assiduous
practice injured his muscles, and he was
compelled to take a rest. At length at the
ensreaties of his friends, he arranged some
concerts In Berlin and gave his "Paganini
evening" 1t aroused the interest of the pub
Tic and the press. For the five following con-
certs the house was crowded, and the varied
programmes showed that Burmeister used his
tecnnic only as means of true art and mu-
sic.
