Nine. ELY Ney, an Artist OF
Exceptional Gifts, Heard in
Beethoven Music.

Nine. lilly Ney, pianist direct from
Rerlin. gave her first recital IN the
ISnited states yesterday in Carnegie
:asiI. Her programme was one OF gi-
Ssntic proportions, better suited to the
pinus resolution OF Berlin audiences
than to the less devotional listeners OF
Nav York. 1t consisted entirely OF Bee
tboven compositions--the "Hammerkla-
vIerv sonata, opus i0s; "Andante Fa-
vori.' six variations, opus "a; Sonata
Appassionatd and sonata in 9 sharp
minor, popularity called "Moonlight."
Nine. Ney's art cannot be adequately
discussed in tho space available this
morning. But it can be said by way OF
introducing her to local music lovers
that she is an artist OF exceptional gifts
ana high attainments. Her technic. al
though OF the unobtrusive kind, proved
to be solid, well disciplined. broad In

in all the fundamental qualities OF tone
