Such is the headline in the Waukesha (Wis.) Daily Freeman with regard to the joint recital of the internationally famous violinist, Milan Lusk, and Alma Peterson, dramatic soprano, in Waukesha, Wis., Decem- ber 2. It was the last concert of the Renowned Artists' series under the direction of Mrs. C. F. Hawley and "it more than maintained the high standard of art set by its predecessors." In fine form, Milan Lusk gave of his best, playing in his accustomed brilliant and virtuosic style. The audience was quick to respond and toward the end he received a veritable ovation adding some half a dozen encores. "Lusk is a distinguished violinist," continues the Daily Freeman, "whose work is known to more than two continents and whose every note is a triumph of art and technique." &.
