tina, il was decidedly a violin concert and
that the two stars were Eugene Ysaye and

not up to his own standard. He sinned
often against the pitch and he revelled in
the saccharine slide Of the sentimental

styles Of the two Nolinists, For plain music
lovers there was set forth an extraordinarily
beautiful delivery Of the slow movement.
which is without doubt one OF the most
uplifting inspirations Of the great Bach.

lines of romantic dramas dealing with the
