Etienne Amyot in concert . The Times March 1 1935 p.12d . ( date may be inaccurate ) M. Etienne Amyot and the Brosa String Quartet with Mr. Victor Watson ( double bas ) gave a concert in Wigmore HAll on Monday at which they played the Trout , Franck Violin and the Schumann Quintet . In Schubert Mr. Amyot showed himself an admirable ensemble player . He knew his place in the scheme and gave due grace and precision to the sometimes mechanical role of the piano . When , however , he was freed from the responsibility of collaboration with fout other players , and had only Mr. Brosa to consider , he indulged in continual rubato . which served to accentuate the short windedness of the Franck work . The Times March 1 1835 P.120 . at Aeolian Hall . For accuracy and delicacy M. Amyot's playing of the Mozart A Major Sonata was unexceptionable , if unnecessarily subdued . A grave failure of mrmoty occured in the firs movement of the B flat major Chopin sonata - and the general impression afforded by the performance was of a conflict between two impulses the desire to make the most of the romantic material and the sense of danger in losing touch with its formal structure . This expressed itself suriously in anunyieldingly strict rythm , the romantic colour being imposed upon yhid with exaggerated contrasts of tone . Nevertheless some passages of brilliance lead us to expect from Mr. Amyot an interesting future .
