MISS LUCILLE coLLETTE
is a dainty little French girl who
is absolute mistress of the violin"
One OF the treasured remem-
brances Of Miss Collette is letter
which the late Pugno wrote to Sir
Henry Wood, of London, concern
ing her. Just before Pugno died
she played at the Sale Femina
the Max Bruch Concerto for violin
with orchestra, directed by Xavier
Leroux, and two weeks later she
played the Mozart Concerto for
piano, Pugno himself playing the
orchestral part on a second piano.
This young lady has had an
extraordinary education. Besides
pursuing her violin studies with
the professors of the Conserva-
toire, she studied the piano so
hard that she attracted the atten-
ton of Pugno, who took her as
his pupil, and she then achieved
important things on the piano.
