For our bow technic he employed difficult passages made into études. Scales the violinist's daily bread we practiced day in, day out. Marsick played the piano well, and could improvise marvelous accompaniments on his violin when his pupils played. I continued my studies with Marsick even after I left the Conservatoire.

We are confronted by the paradox of an artist as torrential, as apocalyptic as Rubens and Wagner, carving with a style wholly charming a segment of a baby's back so that you exclaim, "Donatello come to life!" His slow, defective vision, then, may have been his salvation; he seems to rely as much on his delicate tactile sense as on his eyes. His fingers are as sensitive as a violinist's.

There is real meaning, speaking of the violinist's tone, in the phrase 'he has it at his fingers' tips. Then there is the matter of slow practice. It rests with the pupil to carry out the teacher's injunctions in this respect. The average pupil practices too fast, is too eager to develop his Art as a money maker.

The friendship between him and Vieuxtemps was very strong, in fact it was described as being ideal. Once, while Wieniawski was playing at a concert, Vieuxtemps was among the audience, and, at the conclusion of one of the violinist's solos, Vieuxtemps called, at the top of his voice, "Bravo, Wieniawski!"

Such being the case, it was with unmixed satisfaction that the writer found Mr. Spiering willing to give him the benefit of some of those constructive ideas of his as regards violin study which have established his reputation so prominently in that field. "There are certain underlying principles which govern every detail of the violinist's Art," said Mr.

Now Grace called to Amy, making room on the step beside her. "Come over here and show us your program," she said, extracting a bit of candy from some hidden recess somewhere about her person and popping it into her mouth. "I'm anxious to see what that violinist's name was." Amy obeyed, and as Grace opened the program Mollie and Betty drew closer and peeped over her shoulder.

The violin solo had drawn to a close Kirolski had already returned a third time to bow his acknowledgments and Errington was relieved to see that the look of strain had gone out of her face, although she still appeared rather pale and shaken. One or two friends of the violinist's were coming in at the door of the artistes' room as Olga Lermontof preceded him down the platform steps.

Théo nodded in silence and Brigit answered simply "Yes." The coin shot from the violinist's thumb-nail, flew up into the air and was caught on his palm, his left hand covering it. "Heads, then, a June wedding. Tails, then mees has her way, and the event is put off till autumn? Right?" "Yes." Théo had turned away, and Brigit was free to look full into Joyselle's face.

Frida was a happy girl when a few days after the violinist's visit to the Forest she set out for Dringenstadt, to live for a month with Fräulein Drechsler, and with her go on to Baden-Baden. A few more lessons were got from Herr Müller, the selection of music she was to perform gone through again and again, and all was ready to start the next day.

On the 18th of March, 1815, Louis Spohr, with his beloved Dorette and young family, which had increased with truly German fecundity, bade farewell to Vienna. Two years of concert-giving and sight-seeing swiftly passed, to the great augmentation of the German violinist's fame.
