MUSIC LOVERS WILL SEE GREAT PIANISTS The appearance of Harold Bauer and Ossip Gabrilowitsch in a prograni of original compositions for two pianos is one of the most note-worthy features of the closing musical sea- son in Hartford. Mustc of this char- acter in itself is a novelty, and when presented by artists of the standing of Bauer and Gabrilowitsch, convey a degree of pleasure seldom exper- jenced by any audience. The two artists will repeat at Foot Guard hall the same program given recenty at Carnegie hall in New York, where the interest was so great that a second recital of similar character has already been arranged. Both ar- s have appeared in Hartford many times and each has a host of ad- mirers. The seat sale opens on Saturday morning, April 29th, at Gallup & Al- fred’s Music store. The program of original composi- tions for two pianos follows: Schumann—Andante and variations op. 46. Reinecke—Impromptu on a theme from Schumann’s ‘“Manfred” (“Ap- parition of the Alpine Fairy.”) Mozart—Sonata in D Major—Alle- gro, Andante, Allegro con brio. Saint-Saens—Variations on a theme Beethoven. Arsensky—Romance, Valse. Chabrier—"“Espana.’ by TROUBLE AT DEPOT.
