Freinsar un of so Melbourne same day 22/6/14 . The Age Aap ಶಿಷ್ಯ 2 17161i4 pid sent season was given at tilbe Auditoriue 2216114 | | HAROLD BAUFR CONCERT . The third concert of Harold Bauer's 2 TOT HALL - MISCHA ELMAN . On Saturday afternoon Mischa Elman gare the last of his present series of ro dicals . The Iown Hall held & brge and enthogsstic audienes , and it was evident that the famona Rusian riolinist has won bis way into the affections of Belbourne's bus : e lorers . The programme opened with an effective transcription of Sibelius's orobetral tone poem Finlandia , for the organ , which was ably performed by Dr. L. G. Price , the City Organist Ao aria from Arrigo Boito's Hepbistopheles - the Italian poer - composer's youthful work that $ 1 : arits its succesor - as well sung by Yle . Eva Gauthier , who was warmly real for ber excellent cork . Later in the aiteraooa the same artist sang Haydn'z characteristically spontaneous My Mother Diis le Bind My Hair , Chaoson du Tigre ( iroro Victor Hasses operz Paul and Fire giaia ) , and Jacques Daleroiza's 3la chere VLID the latter well deerred > 3 5 3 op . ili Last nigat .

It is subte.eat for us in Ansralia , as it is for three in Europe and America . to accept him as he STEAE pianist and greit & T. There were many points of interest Harold Bader 3 çery tine performance of the apponata Sonata last , nigut . Te ureted uote nt aded tendents in the second subject of the fint moveintnt in the recapi.ua ive section , tie viriliiy of the finale , and tise warm rowance vi tue slow movement were merely details in 2 splen did interpretat og of a zobie work . Schumann : Carnaval - that fascinating series of variations on a theme , of four aotes - received with enthuziasın , and the pianist 23 induced to add the ianciful Foge als Prophet ( so irequently heard in Jeiboarae concert rooms of late ) . Harold Bauer's reading of Schumana's music is often very different from what is generally cocepted as traditional . The many vigor : ou monents are treated with what may ba caild a more " steely strength than we are usually accustomed to ; but this piarist make us see matters from his own 225 of vie , and we quickly learn to accept ais interpretation not only with respect but itb admiration . Chopin's Baibade in G midor , the E major Nocturne , and the A lat Polonaize were entirely enjoyable , as also was Mendelssohn's too rarely beard Rondo Capriccioso . The group comprised the delicate Waldesrauschen , the tionnarian Rhapsody No. 13 , aad ( as an ea . core ) the same composer's arrangement of Schubert's Erl King , In spite of the bril lentiy executed Rhapsody , it was impo3 ole per to rezret the banishment of me simosphere of a memorable evening's mie , bich was the pataral result of Liazt's dazzling , bat largely commonplace , composition . AUDITORIUM . - HAROLD BAUER RECITAL . The Age A large audience attended the Afth re . cital of pianoforte music giren in diel . bourne by Harold Bauer . The programme included the Brahm's Haltres , op . 50 : Bee thoven's Sonata in C sharp nipor ( familiar . ly known as the " Moonlight ” ) , Schumann's Fantasieztucke , op . 12 ; Chopin'a Berceaze and a Seberzo in B fat minor - Sria : Saeng's arrangement of balles sira from Gluck's Alceste , 204 Lazi's Baphisto Waltz . Tbe originality of all tbe Fork of this fine pianist was strikingly apparent on Sat urelay night - especially , pernaps , in his in terpretauon of the familiar Barcerse by Chopin . Harold Bauer plays it at a greater speed than is asually considered to be the traditional tempo , and with a colorios treatment of the melody that no other pianist has atteinpted before him ; but the result 998 to chroma ner light on the beauties of this almost too - well anord piece , and the pianist thus gave yet an other illustration of an individnality that , while it surprises , never overstaps bounds of legitimnta art . An excellent in terpretation of Schumann's Fantasiestucka was especially notable for the bezutiful versions of Le sections entitled Fabel and Traumeswirren ; while the Liszt Walz pro vided the opportunity for a display oi dazzling virtuosity . So pianist of a like capacity has yet visited this country , and an uncertain but really musical public is earnestly advised to attend the remaining recitals of a great artiste Mr. Bater's sixth recital takes place to night , when the programe will be devoted entirely to Chopra's compositions , including the Sonata in B fat misor , in which the famous Funeral larch occurs . The seventh recital takes place on Wednesday even ing , and the final recital on Thursday after noon . la plared to concertosche cole in G minor . snd the second beautiful and unfamiliar rozts by Vivaldi rranged with accompanimant for planc forte vi orgaz by Nichez . Olhe inst it say anything further the bat Gscha Elman piayed it is ha s expected to play is - sith great beauty of mode , Daster of its tachnical ditt cities and with a re senge of Pea emo tional purport . The chaste lovelines of the Tiraldi concerto , however , calls for pericularmention for 20t . only is the work comparatirely bittle born in this country , but the capital anzerrent by Vacho , hain tha orran and pianoforte cozinne so effectively for purposes of ac comperiment was in seit an interesting feature of the iternoon's concert . De . Price's retiut and jodynent at the orgaa had all are in the success of the par fortance of the very beautiful work . The combination of orgia and yiolin in the Back G string aria was , boxeger , not so sa - siactory -- the usual pianoforte accom paninot being far more suitable to this noble . long - rann melody .
