The last of the Franz Wilezek violin rec given Friday evening in Steinway Hall, and like the former con- certs it was in every respect an artistic triumph. While the threatening weather was in evidence by the number of empty seats, the San Francisco violinists showed their loyalty by appearing almost to a als was man. Mr. Wilczek justified the praise | Fantasie” (Max Bruch), introduction and aiready bestowed upon him. He has a |adagio, Franz Wilczek; “‘Russian Airs” (Wien- wonderful faculty of seeming as much | iewsky), Franz Wil (a) “In_Haven” et home in the greatest technical pas- sages, such as the melody in double har- monics in the Paganini “Witches’ Dance,” &s in the more simple numbers. His tone is broad and handled with a most deli- cate judgment, and his playing is stamped throughout with a character and per- eonality that are charming. The bowing showed to advantage in the crisp finalc to the “Kreutzer Sonata.” It weuld be éifficult to say which were the gems of tte evening, the numbers being so welly selected and so well rendered. For en- cores Mr. Wilczek responded with the prelude from the sixth Bach sonata for violin alone and the Max Bruch romanza. Mrs. Birmingham was in good voice. Her tone is big, and bears th2 real contralto ring, showing the most careful schooling. She gave Metcalf's “Absent” as an en- core. Following is the programme: v’Kreutzer Sonata” (Beethoven), Franz Wilc, na zek = Gyula Ormay; (a) -‘Allerseelen’ s “Fs Muss cin Wunderbares , () “Traum Durch die Dam- erung’’ (Strauss), Mrs. Birmingham; *‘Scotch (Elgar),’ (b) ““Malgre 1'Eclat’ (Henschel), Mrs, Birmingham; “‘Le Streghe” (Witches' Dance) (Paganini), Frank Wiiczek, Gyula Ormay ac- companist, T LOS ANGELES, Der. 6.—Failure of the French walnut crop and the consequent in- creased demand for California nuts has caused the growers to advance prices from 1 to 1% cents & pound on the soft shell variety.
