' ' v V v. j N announcement of extraordinary mad thla ' week by and Wynn Coman. A recital with Harold Bauer, pianist, and Ftlta Krelsler, violinist, will be given early In March iastead of tha Olive Mead string quar tet concert formerly advertlaed the fourth attraction, of tha 8 tears-Co man erica. Tha change la well worth while, and has entailed much added work and pens. Soma tt ma ago tha managers Hf their c ha Bra to tour Kralalar through tha weatern tarrttory, and re membering tha popularity of. thla king f vlollnlala on former vlnlta they hun farad to brlnr htm again. But their ?aeon'a ticket Via already full and with ona mora concert than In former years, and ao many other mualcal at tract lona had baa a offered for thla tea eon by other management that they felt hardly warranted la adding another con cert to their series. , But when they heard that Baaar, too, waa booked for a western trip, the temptation proved too r-trong for them, and by Juggling a date here and a place there and by wringing Bauer up through the aouth and Krela lor down through the north they have finally arranged to have the two artists meet here to five a concert together In place of tha scheduled Olive, Veade quartet. . . , . of courae tha new plan la much more expensive I believe It la going to coat them $1.00 more In Portland, for each arttat must be paid aa for a run con cert of hie own. But the combination will undoubtedly be a strong .one and the program should be ona of Hie beat ever heard tiara. Kralalar. will brlnf hi own accoropanlaL ' Both theve artiata hare appeared here before with Immenae popularity. Krela ler played here In April, 1905, at the Marquam. and - Bauer played at the Marquam In April, 1904, and at the white Temple In October of tha next year. Many think that Krelnler la the beat of all the vlollnlala; that he la more aatisfylnr than Kubellk. ilart mann, Yaaye, Ceaar Thomaon, or any of them. But, or courae, each haa ula ra- vorite, ana every violinist carriea a air ferent men sage to hla different hearer a, Bauer, too, la held by aome to be the rreateat of planlnta. Certain It la that he comblnea faultleaa technic with a mualcal understanding; and a- atrong sentiment that la not sentimentality. and that he la a satisfying medium for sauarymg music. A little aketch of either artiat might not he out or place. Kreleler waa born In Vienna and waa a child prodigy. At the age of alz he appeared In concert Vlth Adellna Pattl. - Hla infantile ca reer waa cut ahort, however, by wlae friends, and he returned to Paris to study and to grow. He entered the gymnasium and dropped ' hla muslo en tirely for two years.
