MASTER PIANIST HEARD.
PadereUski EnthraIIs Great Audi
ence at National Theater-

EaoeEcMhk1 EnOnrnlAD treat Audi
ence at National Theater.
NJ. Paderewskd, whose concert in the
early part Of February had to be post
poned by reason Of an accident TO one of
his fingers. appeared yesterday afternoon
at the National Theater. where a large
and distinguished audience had gathered
to welcome him,
The programme. which was wholly by
request, consisted of a single work each
by Beethoven, Schumann, Debussy, and
IAszt. and OF four works by Chopin. NJ
Paderewski was generous with his en-
cores, as is his wont. and. needless ID
say. these added greatly 20 the pleasure
OF the afternoon.
The artist played with his usual fire and
expression IN most of the numbers. and
was perhaps at his best in the Beethoven
sonata, op IS (Waldstein), and in the
LIstz Rhapsody No. L. The Chopin pieces
were played with mastery technique.
and the valse was given with exquisite
finish
The programme as a whole was rather
a departure from the usual ones pre-
sented by this artist, and was enjoyable
from the novelty Of It's being entirely BY
request. After each number the great
pianist was greeted with enthusiastic ap-
plause, and when he consented TO respond
10 encores. the audiences enthusiasm
knew no bounds. and 1t was with great
reluctance that It finally permitted him to
leave the stage
His hold upon MS public is marvellous,
especially in those quiet and tender mo-
ments in which he so excels In every
form the appearance was a marked sue
cess, though 1t is 10 be regretted that
his instrument seemed poorly voiced
The programme was as follows:
Sonata. op. s.. Beethoven: etudes symphouiauss.
sehumAnn; nocturne nAzurka Yalse and polouaise.
Chopin; chant d'Anour. Stojorzkf. Rhausoste Hon
