UOV..W , WW - . netism which .Charms alike thcmii- sician and the amateur, because of his perfeot musical expression. He possesses that inexplicablend irre sistible something which takes cold judgment off its feet and leads criti cism captive. After studying at the conservatories of his native town, Liege, under his father, and at Brussels, Tsaye entered that of Paris, where he completed the course in IS and immediately afterwards started on a series of concert tours. Ysaye's eminence as a violinist has been gained by hard work. He did not burst meteor-like unbn the world, but he earnedhis position in the vio lin firmament by ten years of concert touring; 'during, whieh time he passed Successively; througiijthe stages of ;ex treme sentimentality until he. reached the "sea" of real sentiment. It was in f ltTS that Ysaye. , after preparation given chiefly, by his 'father, made fcls war to Brussels and sought out Wjtenjf awski then professor, at the ConSer vatoif e." k Wieniawski ' was teaching when a note ' was - brought to v him marked "private, and .important' The servant was told to show the bearer In and Ysaye, then about 16 years of age,v timidly entered the room carry ing his violin, j After a little prelim i'nary conversation which allowed the youth to tell his story,. Wieniawiski asked him "what he could play, and in reply . he placed on the deck a con certo of Vieuxtemps. He at once be came a. pupil of ,.Wlenlawski 'I with whom he. remained some three years. . When Ysaye first appeared in Amer ica he was a mature artist, the first professor of the violin at the Brus sels Conservatoire, and .the possessor of many decorations and honors be stowed upon him by-various royalties. Before he had been in America a month, he was acknowledged " to, , be the greatest violinist who had visited the country for man years. " A man of large -and powerful phy sique, he plays with a bold and amnly vigor and yet with' exquisite delicacy. He is a master of phrasing and of all beauties of detail, has a wonderfully perfect technique, but that quality which places him at the head of all rivals is his musical feeling, his tem perament. He inspires his hearers, or as it was once expressed very neat, ly, "he creeps up under your vest.' He disarms criticism, and he seems to be more completely part of his vio- fin and his violin of him, than has been the case with any other player. He has been declared to be not in ferior to Joachim in 1 tone production. He combines Saraeate's tenderness of tone and showy technique. The stu dent will receive more from Ysaye than any other virtuoso. He , is free from all traits of charlatanism and trickery. ' The Busy Woman's Day It begins early, tnds late, and is full of work.
