GABRIDOWITsCH CONCERT.
Belonging to the royal line of Rubin
stein, Ossip Gabrilowitsch is a living ex-
einplar of the transInigration Of artistic
souls. This young Russian has certainly
inherited the god-like genius Of his mas
ter, Anton Rubinstein; no other pianist in
the blaze of the musical world can exhibit
such evidences, tempe,nmental, intellect
ual and technical. displaying in this SUI
premc trinity OF gifts the letters-patent OF
musical nobility. An artistic son of Ru-
b.nstein he is, and was recognized by the
old Muscovite giant. In GabriloWltsch are
centered poetic intensity, passionate en-
ergy and an astounding grasp OF me
chanisnl-all truly characteristic OF the
Siav. The Siavs have always been re-
markable pian.sts; the Saws and Mig
vars Witness List, Chopin, Tausg and
Rubinstein. And now from the frozen
North comes a second Rub.nste.n. from
1898, when his virtuoso career began, his
progress has been meteor-Hke, and is now
musical history. Wherever he plays he
conquers.
AS virtuoso, Gabrilowtsch is a mod
ern among 1noderns. He draWs from his
instrument an orchestral tone, orchestral
in its breadth, power, volume and rlch
fullness. 1t is the amazing ductity Of this
tone, the Henselt-'ike cuphoniousness,
that at first puzzles his audiences. accus-
toned as they are to associate brlliancy
with hardness. temperament with passion
torn to tatters That Russian, a fiery.
impetuous warrior boiling over with youth,
with hot rcd blood, go suDdue to
sweetness his velvet finger tips, so grad
uate the attack of his nervously powerful
chords, is something new upon the critical
horizon
To the natural musical adaptability Of
the Slay. GabrilowItsch was early indicted
by Rub:nstein into the mysteries of a
noble tone-productton. He sings on the
piano. sings whether in Vertiginous flight
or in some simple lyric episode. 1t is this
cantabie quality. the quality one hears
lingering on the strings of an old Gre
mona violin. which has so endcared him
to his public, 10 the crt.os. To be brilliant
to be daring. to evoke a big tone, but not
at the expense of euphony, that is the
peculiar gift of this young lion OF the
Neva.
