“Angels Three.”

t This is the title given to an appre- , ciative article, written in the Conl tinental Weekly, in connection with i the wonderful performance given by J Leo, Jan, and Mischel Cherniavski, J who, prior to leaving for Australia, , have been giving a series of Concert-Recitals on the European 1 Riviera with immense success be- . fore large and fashionable audiences. ? These remarkable children will 1 appear at the Public Hall on Friday k next, 12th February. [ Great Artists do not come to Te Aroha with that frequency which j permits of music lovers accepting t their appearance ampng them as a 1 mere matter of course. Their visits , | are few and far between, and for this reason should not only be doubly interesting, but should command the whole-hearted support of 1 the Concert-going community. The three young musicians, whom we are so shortly to hear are all endowed with unusual gifts, and, judging by. the exceptionally favourable London and Continental criticisms which have reached us, can certainly be included in the category of great artists, especially so when their tender years are taken into consideration. Leo, the violinist is 16, Jan, the brilliant young pianist and elever composer, is 13, while Miscbel, the diminutive 'cellist, is only 11. During the three eventful years they have been before the public they have succeeded in astonishing some of the most critical audiences in Europe, and to quote the phrase used by a London paper, dealing with their Concerts at the Queen’s Hall, “ All |three have figuratively speaking, really and truly ‘ set the : Thames on fire,’ the blaze of which cannot fail to catch on.” ; Apart from the fact that their \ playing is of the highest executive and artistic skill, and the charm ’ which attaches to the work of really 1 brilliant children, there is no doubt I that the public, ever in search of j something new, will give the enter prise a cordial welcome on the score t of novelty alone. Certainly no f more novel or interesting pro- f gramme has ever been submitted to \ audiences in this country. The box plan is now open at Mr Jackson’s. u
