AMUSEMENTS. LEVITZKI’S WONDERFUL SUCCESS. Tho “Times" writes: Musical students were present at the Town Hall to hear a recital that was a galaxy of all the excellences of theme and theory, action and technique, phrasing and tone caste and delicacy, colour and equipoise, the polished reading of a great lyric poem of music by an artist on whoso shoulders the mantle of Paderewski has fallen while yet /only crossing the threshold of man’s estate. “The Dominion.” writes: As free from any mannerism or any taint of affectation as Harold Bauer or Leonard Berwick, his exquisite work at the keyboard is a fine blend of tho strength of the one and tho innate poetry of the other, illumined with a steady temperamental glow that spells individuality, personality, magnetism. It is this steady flame, allied to amazing delicacy of touch, superb tone, prodigious speed, and a ‘ very complete technique under the earnest command which compel admiration. These, it may be said, are tho virtues that any great pianist possesses, but in the case of the present visitor, they are associated with wonders ful depths and fine perspectives in interpretation which held one enthralled by their unexpected grace and beauty. The "Post” writes: Nothing could excel tho sensation of the success of .Levitzki’s introductory performance. First, ho is a player devoid of airs and graces, tricks and artifices; secondly, ho is no pianoforte “smasher," no matter how loudly a. given passage may require to be played; thirdly. - he plays from the heart as much an from the head; finally, he is a truly great and profoundly mncere artist with many yrars of life before him ere ho reaches the apex oi ms career. rpowN hall DIRECTION ... j.
