his work and his life which we seem

fortunate to have attention called

ganinlS works. The name of Paga-
mini and supreme virtuosity on the
violin are synonymous and every per-
former, who gives himself out as an
exponent of the great technician's
writings, has a fair chance of being
regarded with awe by the violin
lists and other musicians.
Mr.. Renardy makes no false
claims when he styles himself
Paganini player. Not only has he
the superb technique required to do
justice to the "Caprices," but he has
dash, brilliancy and musical feel
ing While the Paganini "Caprices"
may mean little to the general pub
lie beyond being snowy and diver
sified compositions, every violinist
and most other musicians will know
what great undertaking it is to
play these tricky works perfectly. AS
each OF these numbers concentrates
on some one technical problem,
which Paganini delighted in making
more difficult, the whole gamut of
violinist's ability is exposed. Mr..
Renardy has all the requirements, a
facile bowling, and the fleetest of
fingers that make light of the pit
falls of intonation in double stops,
octaves and trills. Further than
this, he plays with style that brings
out the musical value of the works,
for Paganini was by no means just
Snowman and technical scientist;
he also was thorough musician.
Every student of the violin will
welcome this recording and others
will enjoy it for the occasion it Of
fers to become acquainted with the
newest virtuoso of the violin who
may some day be the greatest.
