He app,~ared in London, Brussells, Prague, Paris and many other European music centers and famous watering resorts. Everywhere his playing aroused the greatest enthusiasm. Quoting from one of the most recent European notices: "Milan Lusk is one of the fortunate violinists whose art easily and quickly captures the recognition of the mu sical" world. His playing excels in all the attributes which constitute a virtuoso player: A spontaneous interpretation, a finished and fleet manner of execution, and a lovely tone." Milan Lusk will teach a limited n~mher of talented violin students at his home studio in Wilmette. Arrangements are now being made and those interested have been requested to apply at an early date.
