Professor Troostwyk Of this city is
winning continued laurels with his
Hartford pupils as we'll as with his pu-
pills everywhere. OF his School of Mu
sic trio concert in Hartford Friday. the
Hartford Courant says: "A fine au-
dience listened to the second of this sea-
sons trio concerts, under the auspices
of the Hartford School of Music at
Hosmer hall yesterday afternoon, and it
was the general comment that the
programme was a remarkably strong
one and that the artists have never
played with better balance or harmony.
The opening number was Grieg's so
nata for Violin and Piano, F major OPP.
No. s." played by Isadore Troostwyk |
and Edward Noyes. The composition,
like other works by Grieg, was striking |
in its contrasts, apparently uneven in |
its thought, but brilliant and dashing, |
and as a whole delightful work. Mr.. |
TroostWyk was at his best and master |
ed the difficulties Of the technique with |
ease, putting into the three movements |
an amazing amount of viriiity, bring |
ing out the fullest tone and interpreting |
the movements most acceDtably. Mr.. |
Noyes at the piano had the complement
tary work and the balance was |
simply we'll nigh perfect. The two
have never played anything so well to-
gether and the audience was very en-
the applause being long con-
tinued at the close of the number.
The principal composition was
Tschaikowsky' Trio, OPP. SO A minor"
a most virile work with remarkably
wide range in the treatment of it's
theme. 1t is in three principal move
ments, ''pezzo elegiaco," "tema con
and "variazoni finale de
coda" and each of these movements
was supplemented by nearly every mu-
steal expression that seems possible.
The trio, Mr.. Noyes, Mr.. Troostwyk
and Leo Schulz, gave fine interpreted
ton of the various movements and GER
tainly no better piece of harmonious
playing is remembered here The first
had in it some heroic pass
ages that had about them the atmos-
phere of the wild steppes of the compos-
er's native land, and contrasting move
ments of melancholy that were beauti-
full indeed. The second movement op-
aned with a stately cantabile and clos
I'd with a muzurka, and between the
two there was a bit of waltz, a lovely
andante, a fugue. and a half dozen
other short movements that We're cap
-ivating in themselves and by contrast.
The artists interpreted them with a
