THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE, SUNDAY MORNING-, DECEMBER 29, 1907. 25 j I I MUSICJkNB MUSICIANS HI Aladdin, with his wonderful lamp I jiever- -worked prrcator marvels in tbi Hf -Sires of others llian .Fun Kubelik witl Rf lis wonderful violin in the lives oi Swliimsolf and family. From a peasant's mgJ Stit to a pulace in four sliort. years I from a poor qardeucr's son to the mas ter of a great estate, from the obscuriu to world-wide fame, and to have woli as wife tho most beautiful countess in oil Bohemia such, in brief, is tlie his tory of the twentieth century Pasaniui, who is making his third triumphant tour of America. This wizard of the bow, who possesses a most livpnotic personality, who sways thousands with tho maie of his music, is. one of the B .rare noniuses seen only about, even ts 'third generation. B At IS Kubelik was an unknown B raduato of the Prague conservatory. BB )At 20 Europo and America had pro BB nounced him -''the greatest violinist" BB jot tho ape. At 22 he married Countess 'Bzaky-Czell. lu.tlie Ovc years sinco BB ihc has reconquered America once and a.' Jhiropo a halt-dozen times, and now is BB giving tliis side of the Atlantic an op BF . portunity to enjoy his art in its full Bfti est- maturity. H At the ayo of S ho created a yrcat V 'spnsation in his school by plavinp at Br IK1 an .accompaniment" which few BE, older musicians would have been able T to do. Hitherto Jan had been known as an imp. quick and ready in his K, studies, but a disturbing clement in K jeyery class. ' But for that afternoon all t )his shortcomings wcro forgiven. lie Br I wis . told to play something more, and t' jimmediately played a concerto by Ber Jlioz. At (his time a "rent temptation m- came to the father of Kubelik. Bo- nF .the Either of six boys and and ijnaking but very littlo money, the srent temptation and advico of his friends M' fand neighbors to travel with .Jan as a H hoy prodigy was very strong, but tho If father could 'see farther ahead. Ho had B- noticed that these prodigies never W amounted to great musicians as they B grew up. B He was admitted to the Prague con- 6ervatory at the age of 12, although M entrance ago of others was 14. His Mfc ,Jrvca years at Prague conservatory were rather monotonous and he often fell t that his progress was very slow. But It :hs had his kind fathor to 6pur him on. aud at times when ho had nothing .to eat. would practico for hours on his i& old violin. His eighteenth year wit nessed the beginning of his triumph and jhis greatest sorrow. He graduated from " jthe Prague consorvator.y boforo an au dience of tho keenest critics. For his first, engagement he received $10, and i with $5 of the money ho bought a wreath for his father's funeral: "He died just before the public gave me tho reward for which he had S struggled," are the worda of the artiBt. ' tBut in his playing that day was a feeling that. only a man who has had n great sorrow can put into tho striugs of a violin. "When barcty 19 he sup ported his mother and brother with his ' neagcr earnings. Soon after ho car ried Vienna by storm, and now his i triumphs came" more easily. London, ,tho rock on which many an artistic ship lias been wrecked, was captured by the great sensational performance of" this l'hero of tho violin." Comfort and plent3' now camo his way, and finding himself the possessor of several million florins, ho becamo tho landed proprie tor and owner of ono of the most mag nificent castles in Austria-Hungary, and J ii 1902 married the Countess Szaky Jzell.

Tho illness of Mary Garden caused tho postponement of tho Jong-waitcd-for "Louise," by Charpentier. Curiously enough, the snmb fate has followed this opera in each metropolis whore it has bocn billed since its composition. Several things (onfpircd to mako its Parisian preuuciu lung delayed. The snme was true of London. Now York has waited sovon years to hear the opera, during which time it has been sung several hundrods of times by Garden in Paris and other cities. Now, whon the novelty seeking opera public of New York was on tho qui vivo of expectation on Monday night, Garden was suddenly taken with acute laryngitis, and will not aing for two wcoks. So again tho fir6t per formance of tho famous opera is in definitely postponed. Nordica hns cancolled her engage ment for tho season with Oscar Ham mcrstein. The prima doom clainiB that Camnanini, the Italian conductor at tho Manhattan, blew emoko in hor face j whilo Binging and olhorwiso made things 30 disagreeable for her that sho could tolerato it no longer. Campauini's wifo is ono of tho sisters Tetrazzini, nnd Nordica sayB that Campanini wished to oust hor from, tho company, in order to havo the coast clear for tho two Totra7.7.inis. HaminerBtoin's version is that Nordica did not draw, bo ho wished to put hor in special performances at popular prices. Bather than do this, Nordica lias withdrawn from her con tract. The disagreement appears some what complicated, and tho real causo for tho famous singer's withdrawal from the opora company can only bo deter mined later in tho season. Mme. Nor dica is a stockholder in tho San Car los Opera company, and sho will sing with them for tho rcst of tho season. Gustave Mahler, composer and con ductor of the Iioyal Court theater in Vienna, arrived Saturday, and will con duct works of Wagner, "Beethoven, Mo 7.art and Weber at tho Metropolitan Opera house. Jlerr Mahler is Known nB ono of tho most advanced among Gorman composers. Ho has written sev eral orchestral symphonies nnd a num ber of songs. Ho excels as an inter preter of tho German classicB. Brahms once said that whoover wanted to hear Mozart's operas should go 'where Mah ler is conducting. His productions of tho workB of Mozart have bocome the models for all Europe. Ilerr Mahler will remain in Now York till May and will close tho Metropolitan season with a Beethoven fostival. Christmas evo Maudo Adams comes - I again to the Empiro theater. Sho will appear for two weeks in "Peter Pan," then will revive, some other successes boforo going on with her new pluy, 'Tho Jester. " This play is one in which Bernhardt scored a groat suc cess in Paris, and is ono of sovcral in which Maude Adams has followed closely after Bernhardt.
