Many Russian Musicians Here

It may be, as the critics of New York have said, that all the Russian violinists have now. arrived and we can take count of them. The last to appear is A1itnitzky. who, although of Russian birth, embodies the best in the -Viennese, Berlin and Scandinav- ian schools. He made his debut at Carnegie Hall last week, and display ed a remarkable full, sure and large tone, with a breadth of feeling that is unusual even in artists of his tenn perament. His reception while cor
 dial, deserved to be far more f1atter- , ing which may easily be accounted for [ by the influx of mediocre artists this season. His technical deXterity is re | markable and in one number a Paganini ''Nel cor piu," it was mar velous and his tone as sure as a
 plumb line This success has prompt
 ed him to undertake a second recital | at Carnegie Hall on February 23,
 where his program will embrace many Paganini numbers, a composer whom ] he more thoroughly understands and comprehends than any artist we have | heard.
