THE MUSIC WORLD,
Performance cf the Beethoven Quar
J. tet Club Last Week.
THE CAEEE2 OF HANS YON BDELOW
Another Celebrated Pianist Who Will Visit
rittstrars Soon.
C02UXG COXCEET AT CARKEGIE HALL
Tbe largest audience of tbe series gathered
fo bear the last chamber music recital of the
Beethoven Quartet Club, at the Pittsburg
Club Theater, last Thursday evening.
The programme was published last
week in this column and lack of space pre
vents its repetition, as lack of time (this
notice being written last though printed
firt) prevents its review at a length com
mensurate with Its merits.
The ensemble work, taken all together,
lias not been surpassed by any similar body
of local player. True, there was consid
erabU nnevennes in the Mozart nndante,
the minuet was taken at a scherzo rate of
speed and the intonation of the higher
strings was often far from immaculate.
Bnt the Beethoven andante cantabile (from
the piano quartet, on. JG) was very smootlilv
Riven, and tlie great Schumann quartet, op. 47,
wbich closed the procramme, was clayed with
much breadth, finish and lire.
Mr. Ad. M. Foerter's new Trio, op. 53, was
also given an interpretation of much ex
cellence. It is regetted that the opportunity
must be passed of reviewing In detail this
strong and beautiful work of oar leading home
composer. Suffice it to sav that the first move
menta stormy allegro con brio, prefaced bv a
somber unison introduction and interspersed
with Onel contrasting melodic episodes Is
full of an intensely modern spirit, engrafted
upon and largely modifying tha classical
sonata form. The larghetto is a
truly beautiful movement, full of reposo and
grace, a bit of composition sure to please both
layman and connoisseur. Onlv these two move
ment were gnen: but they snfflced to earn lor
Mr. Foerster a brilliant ovation of applause,
that competed him to enme ont from the audi
ence and boc bis acknowledgments.
Mrs. W. 11 Wolfe sang her choice selections
sweetly and purely, as usual. Her voice seemed
tired, however, and other slight evidences of
Indisposition were present. MiS9 Agnes
Vogel achieved a genuine triumph
Jo Grieg's "Odalisnue" and Raffs
"Mary Stuart's Farewell' Her rich and vel
vety voice and lmpas-ioned. artistic style nave
seldom, if ever, appeared to greater advantage.
Mr. Retter, the movinc spirit, deserves all
honor for this most artUlically delightful series
of concerts.
The appearance of Hans von Bnelowln a pi
ano recital at Old Citv Hall next Friday is one
of the prime events of the entire local season.
The great little man has not been beanl here
since Ins first appearanceat old Library Hall in
1877 While his programme, which was printed
In this column last week, does not give as much
representation as some would wish to the class
of plaving of winch Von Buelowis the most au
thoritative exponent, it does give full opnortu
nity for the di-plav of his powers in a wide va
riety of schools and styles.
Bearing in mind that it was written ten years
ago, the following excerpt from the American
Cyclopaedia gives a reliable summary of tha
Retire career of this great musician, one of
tbe most unique and notable musical person
ages of the age:
"Hans Unido von Bnelow. a German pianist
and composer, born at Dresden, January 8, 1S3DL
His father, Karl Edouard von Buelow (18U7- 63)
was a nortli.t and poet. The son commenced
tbe stndy f music at an early age as au
amatenr, being intended by his father for the
law; but as his tastes became more decided, he
finally, by the advice of Liszt and
"Wagner, adandoned his law studies
6t Berlin, and devoted himself to
music. His father, displeased at this decision,
refused him support; bnt both Wagner and
Liszt cave him assistance, the former obtaining
Tor him in 1S50 the position of chief of orches
tra of the theater of Zurich, where the operas
"Tan haeuser" and "Lohengrin" were being
performed. In I&51 he went to Weimar and
ttudied tbe piano and composition for two
years under Li'zi's direction.
"In ISM he plaved for the first time in public
at a musical festival in Ballenstedt, and in tbe
came year Lis nverturo to "Julius Cuar" was
performed for tbe first time and be became
one of tLe editors of the A'nte ZeiUchrift fuer
Jluxik, ot Leinzle, advocating the progressive
school of which Wagner was the chief. He
succeeded Kullak as first professor of the
Fiano at the Berl.n Conservatory in 1S55.
5 1E57 lie married Cosima, natural
"Daughter ot Iszt and the Countess
d'Agonlt. In 185S he wis appointed
court pianist at Berlin. In 1SG4 be went to
Russia uherehemade a great reputation as a
pianist and orchestral conductor. In 1W7 bo
became chapelmaster and director of opera to
the King of Bararii. His wife having deserted
him lor Wagner, Von Bnelow In 1SC8 obtai.ied
a divorce in the Bavarian Courts, and in .De
cember. 1S70. she mimed bis former friend.
"Von Buelow's works are nearly SO in num
ber, the most celebrated among them being his
overture and music to "Julius Cassar." "The
Minstrel's Curse" for orcnestra, and "Nir
wana." a composition founded on an Indian
legend. Besides these be has composed
sougs and choruses and numerous
pianoforte pieces, the most popular
of which have been transcriptions from Li-zt,
"Wagner. Berjniz, Handel and Bach. As a con
dactor of orchestra he has no superior in
Europe. As a pianist his only rival is Rubin
stein, since Lizt no longer appears in the con
cert room. An extraordinary characteristic of
the man is that be never plays his own compo
sitions in public."
-
Another unique personality will soon follow
the doughty Dr. Hans upon our concert stage.
Vladimir do Padimann, who enjoys a great
European reputation as a Chopin player, will
be heard in Old City Hall on tbe 9th of May.
Mr. Joseph H. Glttings is instrumental in
bringing both of tnese pianistic celebrities to
our town.
While Pacbmann's personal peculiarities and
Sentimentalities have furnished grounds for
some adverse criticism, the general verdict of
tbe American press thus far has amply con
firmed bis transatlantic fame. The last issue
of tbe Musical Courier contains tbe following
clever editorial study of Pachmann's qualities:
"The born pianist is a born illusionist. He
makes vou hear sustained tone by the aid or
his touch, pedaling and rhvthmical devices,
where none in reality is. Vladimir de Pacli
maun is a great illusionist: hence be plays tbe
piano in a manner tint produces on the ears of
jus listeneis the effect of a perfect legato.
Never in passages of rapid tempo has a virtuoso
Preserved the illusion of legatissimo such as
Ir. oe Pachmann does. His touch is perfect,
judged by tuelbalbergian standard, but one
we suspect that would be inadequate to Inter
pret the bolder dramatic works of latter-day
pianiem.
"Then, too,in addition a fabulouslySmooth
technic, Pachmann has the temperament of
the Slav. T him the mystic zal of Chopin is
no serret. He lav s bare the palpitating rhythms
and subtle melodies of a most subtle poet with
a skill that can never be learned. It is inborn.
The rubato. that stnmb'ing block to amateurs
and artists aliVe. Pacbmann has bv nature,
and it at times it results in rythmical confu
sion it is the fault of our Western ears, for
Eastern rhythms are sadly bewildering after
the metronomic accents of a Bach, Beethoven
orBrahm".
"Pachmann plays like a poet, and as Freder
ick Kiecks. the great Chopin authority, says is
certainlv the best exponent of certain phaies
of the Chopin literature we know of.
"But Chopin does not please everybody,
hence criticism is naturally engendered when
Pachmann's interpretations are in discussion.
Certe.-, he plays tbe preludes and etudes asfew
living pianists do. and it tbe music and style is
a trine rococo it is not his fault. It is tbe age
of specialization, and Pachmann Is a Cbopm
specialist and a singularly fascinating stylist."
The Allegheny Musical Association, Mr. W.
A. Laffertv, conductor, gives its second con
cert at Carnegie Music Hall next Thursday
evening. The engagement of Mr. Clarenco
Eddy, of Chicago, gives our pnblic the
first opportunity of hearing tho new
organ played by a concert organist
of high rank and In full possession
of bis powers. Miss Helen Bolce-Hunslcker,
tbe soprano, hails from New York; Miss Hattie
C. McLain, the contralto, from Boston. Miss
Grace Miller, soprano, ajd Mr. John A. Bell,
accompanist, complete tbe local contingent.
1 his is tbe programme, to bear which tbe gen
eral public, as well as tbe associate members,
can this time procure admission.

dances (Valse Caprico, Country Dance and
Mazurka) has nst been published; next month
will see tbe issuance of op. 7, in tbe shape of
four piano pieces. Hi publishers do not
wander from the strictest truth by asserting
as they do in a special list just issued of this
Pittsburg lad's compost tions "EthelbertNevin
is one of tbe most talented of the group of
young American composers now prominent be
fore the public. His writings snow corsider
able melodic invention, and are charmingly
fresh and original. In his songs, his poetical
conception and power of expression have pro
duced moments of great beauty. He is always
spontaneous, and conceives and executes
equally welL"
Aftee one more month Pittsburg will have
her third opportunity of hearing the best or
chestra In this country the Boston Symphony,
ot course and her first chance to decide fur
herself upon the wisdom of Mr. Hlggmson's
choice of a new condnctor in the person of Mr.
Arthur Nikisch. from Leipzig. The orchestra
is to be accompanied on their tour by Mrs.
Steinbacb-Jahns, a dramatic soprano, said to be
of great ability, whom Mr.NiMsch has brought
over from his former place of abode. It Is tbe
Mozart Club that brings the Boston Orchestra
here this season, as beiore, and the club will
participate in both the concerts to be given.
For May 19 Mendelssohn's "Hymn of Praise"
will be the choral work, or the orchestral work,
as you please, remembering that in it Mendels
sohn followed the example set in Beethoven's
immortal "Ninth Sympnony" of adding an im
portant vocal portion to what seems at first an
orchestral work. Mr. Harry Brockett will sing
tbe tenor solo part For May 20 the choral
work chosen is Weber's hymn (op. 35) "In Con
stant Order.
The Great Western Band did play after all
for the opening of the National League base
ball season in' this city yesterday, and the at
tendance at the game did not seem to be
affected by the M. M. P. U.'s boycott bluster.
The most amusing thing in the whole affair
was tho latter organization's band-wagon be
decked with a streamer calling atten
tion to the "only union musicians," oc
cupied by players not one of whom,
it is credibly stated, is a professional musician.
In a mere conflict between members of the K.
of L. as against members of the Trades Coun
cils the public has no concern whatever. But
tbe public at loist the musical pnblic is
deeplv concerned in seeing that the reliable
professional players, on wnora the community
depends for the better class of band and or
chestral music, shall not be interfered with bv
the crowd ot incompetent non-professional
players foiming the vast majority In that so
called musical union which has done so much
to retard the progress of instrumental music
in Pittsburg.
One Reason
Why nearly everybody should take a good med
icine in the spring is because at this season the
system is especially susceptible to the benefit
to be derived from a reliable preparation like
Hood's Sarsaparllla. In tbe winter various
impurities accumulate in the blood, the effect
of which is most felt when spring comes on, in
general weakness and languor. The 8) stem
craves assistance to maintain the health, tone
and expel impnrities which Hood's Sarsaparllla
readily gives. Try it
"For five years I was sick every spring, but
last year began in February to take Hood's
barsaparilla. I used five bottles and have not
seen a sick day since." G. W. SlAJix, Milton,
Mass. N. B. Be sure to get

ANOTHER GREAT SUFFERER
Cured by the Catarrh Special
ists at 323 Penn Avenue.
v Z.-&
Tbe above Is a portrait of Mrs. Elizabeth
Bratt, who lives at Verncr Statfbn. The
catarrhal secretion that formed in her head and
dropped down into her turoat, caused a severe
ulceration to sot in. Her mouth, throat and
tongue became so sore, tbat she could not chew
her food, and was compelled to eat only soft
foods. She would often have sharp pains in her
face, and a drink of cold water wonld cause the
most intense paim As somo of the catarrhal
poison extended to her lungs, she coughed
badly, her breath became short and she felt
much pain and soreness in her lungs. She had
a constant weak, tired feeling, and she often
felt so nervous tbat her whole body would be
in a tremble. The food she ate would sour on
her stomach, and she felt a full, distressed feel
ing after eating. Her heart would often palpi
tate as if it would jump out of her body. She
had much pain across tbe small of her back
and lower part of her body. Exposure to cold
air would cause her to take cold, and often for
a month at a time she would not dare to step
outside the door. Although doctoring all of
the time she gradually grew worse. She lost
much flesh, until she unlv weigbed 83 pounds.
It was while in this condition tbat sbe began
treatment with tbe physicians of the Catarrh
and Dyspepsia Institute, at 323 Penn avenue,
and became cured. Sbe says: "My disease
was of 12 years' standing, and my condition was
much worse than has been described. I now
feel well and strong, as I did when I was a girl.
I have regained my flesh and am very clad to
testify to my cure, as above stated by these
specialists. Signed with my own hand,
"MRS. ELIZABETH BRATT."

BREATH W
It Warms All Nature Into Life and Fills the Streets With Gaily
Dressed People.
The sunshiny days of the past week made shopping a pleasure, and the ladies of both
cities were out in full force. To the casual observer it appeared as if EOSENBAUM'3
was headquarters for the crowds of fair femininity that thronged the thoroughfares. Well,
our energies were pretty well taxed in waiting upon all (for our stores were crowded from
morning until evening), but we have the satisfaction of knowing tbat every patron went
away pleased. We would like to go into details regarding tire many good things we have
to offer this week, but time will not permit. For this reason only a few of the many nov
elties in the yarions departments will be mentioned, and those at random.
