Mr. Berwick at Home. Mr. Borwick's first appearance in London after his Australian tciv treated great interest. As a rule. Mr. Uorwick is content with a small luill. On tin's occasion he chose to play in the Queen's Hall, onu of the largo>t in London. Some of the critics find a change in Mr. Hunviek'js liHisic, as a result of his world tour. "The Times" states that, in the past, the pianist always took «. strongly intellectual view of his music, with tht> result that his playing sometimes presupposed that his hearers would bring a similar view, and lie capable of meeting him half-way. "Hut," continues the critic, "tho need of convincing audiences of manv kinds, and, as it were, going out to meet; them, instead of expecting them to meet him, has made Mr. .Berwick concentrate upon the actual sound, and in everything which he played yesterday the positive sense of beauty and tho masterly use of instrumental effect placed him at onco and kept him in dose touch with his audience." Tho "Daily Telegraph" also writes of Mr. Berwick coming back with all his best qualities emphasised. Incidentally tht critic recalls a curious anecdote about Madame Clara Schumann, who was Mr. Berwick's teacher. In the early stages of the famous pianist's career, Madame Schumann spoke of him as "quite unmusical." Mr. Borwick's triumphs in Australia and America afford an odd commentary upon Madame Schumann's judgment. Doubtless, it did not take her long to realise her initial error. Mr. Horwick ended by becoming her favourite pupil.
