Talented Pianist
Proves Treat in
Artists Recital

The crowd Of tri-city people who
braved the rain and snow OF last
evening to hear William Bachaus,
were more than repaid for their ef-
fort, for the pianist proved revel-
alton and rare treat Seldom is the
opportunity offered 10 hear such a
master of piano as Bachaus in the
trf-cities, and TO say that IL was
enjoyed is far from expressing the
feeling OF the company who sat
spellbound while the pianist played
number after number. And not one
in the audience moved to leave
when the last number. second Hun
garian Rhapsody, was ended. and
the applause winch called for FIVE
or six bows, was finally stilled
when Bachaus returned to the
plano and after a few trial runs
played Liszt's "Liebestraum," as 4
fitting climax to his List numbers.
which were probably the best on
his prograInm The other number
was Waldesrauschen.
Probably what impresses most in
the playing of Bachaus is the mar
velous power in the fingers, that
power which seemingly comes from
the shoulder and brings out the
resonant, yet sensitive notes His
fingers are maryelously agile. each
absolutely free, never encountering
the least difficulty or obstacle or
crowdfng one another. He can do
with the little finger what he can
with the thumb, get the same pow
er and quality. 1t is very unusual
to listen to a pianist so thorough
ly gifted yet perfectly trained.
Whether he was interpreting the
simple melody in the andante con
motto Of the Beethoven Sonata in F.
minor or piling note on note in
rhapsody, his touch and technique
was displayed equally as we'll
These two types were contrasted in
the opening group, the rhapsody
being a Brahms number in G
minor.
Next came group Of four Schu- !
mann numbers, each beautifully in
terpreted. They were ."Das Abends,p
"Aufschwung," ''Warum" and
''Traumeswirren." Included in the
group was Mendelssohn's Rhondo
capriccioso. a thing which many in ,
the audience nave studied, but
learned much from the exception
ally splendid playing by this art
5st. The chromatic octaves were
wonderfully executed.
The most modern number played
by Bachaus was the two preludes
in G major ana G minor, which
was greatly liked
Chopin's Ballade in A fiat and
his Romance from e minor con-
certo were splendid, the latter be-
ing particularly we'll liked.
Bachaus played on mis- own in
strument last night, which had
been sent down from Chicago. with
a special tuner Tor the concert. The
college is to be congratulated upon
presenting such a pianist at the
I first OF its artists series OF concerts.
