TO this interesting information We may

plain truth is that Verdi was lazy fel-

Harold Bauer Noted
AS q Great Pianist

or the few planists to whom the term
great" might be applied. none more
fully deserves the title than Harold
Bauer, pupil OF Paderewslki. Bauer
owes TO that master debt Of gratitude
FOR bringing 10 It's highest development
the must sai genius he early displayed
At the same time, Il may be said that
Bauer Is in large measure seH-tauSht.
Even as boy he showed rare musical
instinct. and his rapid advance under
distinguished European masters showed
that he was OF no mediocre caliber
Six times previous to his present tour;
Bauer has visited the United States, and
each appearance has strengthened his
hold on American favor. In Europe his
reputation was made long before he un-
dertook TO Win recognition In this coun-
try. He has given concerts in so many
continental cities, that an adnirer laugh
ingly has suggested that the pIanists
fame rests much upon his record as
q traveller as his skill as a musician
Meanwhile ne has been preparing him
self ;or his American tours. arranging his
programmes and extending his repertoire
Bauer is indefa fatgable. In his playing,
the most noticeable characteristics are his
eXqusitely controlled temperament and
his freedom from anything resembling

Harold Bauer declared recently that the
most curious audience he ever played be
