Spalding
Comes To
Masonic
Albert Spalding, one of the most
popular of the world-famous vio
linists, will stop in Detroit on his
current transcontinental tour for an
engagement at the Masonic temple,
Wednesday evening at 8:20.
Born in Chicago he began play
ing the violin at 7 and later his
principal teachers were Chiti, the
famous Florentine master, Buitrago
in New York, and Lefort in Paris.
When he graduated from the Bo
logna Conservatory of Music at 14
he received the highest honors ever
accorded anyone since Mozart. He
made his professional debut in Paris
and his American debut was made
at Carnegie Hall.
Spalding has composed over 60
violin compositions, 25 piano num
bers. 30 songs, four chamber music
quartets, four orchestral composi
tions and endless transcriptions and
arrangements.
“America’s Violinist” believes that
the means for making people hear
fine music are available and that
they are ready for it. In fact, the
movies and radio can do the work
of a hundred years in developing
in the masses an appreciation for
the best in music, he declares.
