Judgment of a discriminating ob earn t could only b?? that the boy Oersrdy, wtth lils performance of a ??oncerto by Raff, bud moved the popular bean much more potently. It was only after he had played th?? Hungarian Eantasle of his maater, l.iszt. which came last on the programme, that his merita as an artist Were eiiscloseil, and then It was to?> late to make th.? popular effect which his foreign reputation had led the music lovers of the ?itv to expect.
