Alfred Nossig, the librettist of
"Mansru," in speaking of Mr.. Pade-
reWsk as a composer, says: "Pade-
rewski, unlike other virtuosos, is
called to a higher productivity than
that OF mere Interpretation. His artis-
tic activities began with composition.
and the favor of composition is the
chief charm in his playing. Known
principally as song and symphony
composer, his piano pieces have all
ways been very popular This class
OF composition, however, permits but a
one-sided development of his gift.
His unusually good treatment of the
voice and excellent defamation in his
Mickewitz songs; the inexhaustible
invention Of his variations; the deli
cious tone effects in his 'Elegy'; the
grandeur OF his tone painting in his
Concerto; the intricate but lucid con-
struction and effective instrumental
ton of the 'Fantasie Polonaise' are
admired by all composers. Paderewski
has felt his need of living out his most
characteristic gift to it's fullest extent;
OF sounding in mighty accord all the
strings of that musical instrument, his
soul From that impulse has sprung
his last great work Just as he achiev-
ed the heights of mastership through
the emotional and dramatic allure of
his playing, so he will give of his best
as a composer of music-drama"
