Leo, Jan and Mischel, met Phillip Pelz, orchestra leader at the Multnomah Hotel. Fourteen years ago the three little Cherniavsky lads were In the first year of their world tour. Since then every country in the world, save only the United States, had. been visited. Philip Pelz had been a music! col league of Abraham Cherniavsky, father of the famous trio. In Budapest and St. Petersburg these two had become olose friends. Both Cherniavsky. Sr., and Pelz were students of the violin, and each followed the other's work with great interest. All Meet Later On. Later Pelz became leader with the Palace Orchestra and Cherniavsky be came an eminent musical conductor and teacher. When Leo was 12 Jan was 10 and Mischel was 9, the three lade were touring Russia under direction of their father. One day at a Summer gar den In South Russia, where Pelz was playing, they met, the two men to re new the friendship of their youth, and the boys to know their father's friend. "At that day I predicted a bla; future for the little musicians," said Mr. Pelz yesterday. "I have never before or since heard such marvelous playing from children. Even then Leo was a master of the violin, and little Jan at the piano made my heart sing. And now after 14 years I am to hear again music by the children of my dear old: classmate. I am looking forward to the concert at the Heillg tonight with greatest Joy. Prediction Cornea True. "It seems only yesterday that, their father brought me to hear them" play. Handsome little lads they were, and in love with their music even as babies. I told him then that some day his boys would be among the great musicians of the world, and my predictions have come to pass. Thej. have gained the recognition of the music loving and artlstio the world over." Tonight the Cherniavsky trio ia to give a return concert at the Heillg, and their programme differs entirely from either of the two preceding ones. To night a fourth brother, Gregor, will join the trio and with Leo will give a one number Bach's concerto, which critics say is presented flawlessly as these two play it. Beauty of interpretation, complete mastery of their instruments, the vio lin, cello and piano, and a soulful, rbythmlo feeling marks the work of this trlor Their concert promises to be another splendid treat.
