Bartok is a Hunga

Bartok was a cl ose friend of
the quartet membe s and visited
them when they lived in Holland
—their European headquarters be
fore they came to the United
States in 1948.
Bartok dedicated his only violin
concerto as well as one of his
two Rhapsodies to Zoltan Szekely,
the quartet's first violinist. Szeke-
Iy knew Bartok as a boy and ap
peared with him on the concert
stage.
Other members of the quartet
are Alexandre Moskowsky, violin
ist, Denes Koromzay, violist and
Gabriel Magyar, cellist.
Moskowsky, who was born in
Russia, is the only member of the
quartet who was not born in Hun
gary. He studied under Leopold
Auer, a Hungarian who did most
of his teaching in Russia. He
joined the quartet after teaching
at the Amsterdam F. onservatory.
Koromzay, a former pupil of
the Hungarian master Jeno Hu
bay, was a first-prize winner at
the Vienna Conservatory. He has
given sonata recitals throughout
Europe.
Magyar was graduated from the
National Institute of Music in
Budapest and received a masters
degree in music at the Royal Hun
garian Franz Liszt Academy of
Music.
Each member of the quartet
uses an old and precious instru
ment. Szekely uses a Stradivarius
violin made in 1718, Moskowsky
a Guarnerius del Jesu violin made
in 1738, Koromzay a Zonolli viola
of the Venetian school and Mag
yar a Vuillaume cello.

Hardly—but you and most people face that

taxes are concerned. Here's how:
Part of every dollar you pay for electricity
goes for taxes. But a strange twist in federal
