Petschnikoff now became a pupil of Hrimaly, and devoted himself to hard work, earning some money by teaching even at the age of ten. In due course he won the first prize and the gold medal at the conservatory, and was then offered an opportunity to study in Paris, which he declined.
Petschnikoff has been given an introduction to America, through Mr. Emil Paur, by Theodor Leschetizky, couched in the most glowing terms, and is called by him "an artist of the very first rank and of inconceivable versatility." One might prolong the list of violinists to a tremendous extent, and yet fail to mention all those of great merit.
