"Your fiddle hangs on -its nail, or that lam pretty sure." So wrote Mozart's fattier to the composer just after the composition of his five great violin concertos, one of which, the D major, has been recorded the gramophone entire by Kreisler, -with accompanying orchestra conducted by Sir Landon Ronald. Mozart hiniselr, it is interesting to know, played this concerto in public, and as we listen to tho musio it is evident that the composer knew and loved the instrument for which the music is written. One feels sure, too, that Kreisler's playing would have, delighted the old master by its purity of tone and that simplicity of style which is one of the essential of great art. The so are wonderful records, and on© must not forget the exquisite accompaniments.
