| November 21, 1925 WINNETKA TALK SEES BRAILOWSKY AS ASTOUNDING PIANIST Critic Marvels at Performance of Russian Artist Before Winnetka Music Club BY MUSIC CRITIC At 7:50 Wednesday evening, No- vember 18, New Trier hall was two- thirds full of eager north shore folks | the * Brailowsky, i desirous of seeing and hearing playing of Alexander famous Russian pianist. At 8:15 the hall was nine-tenths full, and at 8:28 it was eleven-tenths full, some people standing in the rear. Alexander Brailowsky is an as- tounding pianist! His speed is un- canny. He is a pianistic prestidigi- tator; the man with rapid fingers. And not only did he deliver single note runs with incredible velocity, but he also produced octaves at a rate that was positively alarming. At times his rapid moving right was a blur. His tone was always crisp, even to the point of brittleness. KEach tone, though occupying a proportionate place in the piece being presented, was never anything but distinct and distinguished. Every phrase was a marvel of nice calculation and pre- cision. It was not mathematically cold, but so clean cut and measured as to be a real joy to the attentive listener. He played three groups of selections. The first contained a Pastorale and Capriccio by Scarlatti and Beethoven's | In response to he presented Musical. The of Chopin's ballade, noc- Sonata Appassionata. the vigorous applause Schubert's Moment second comprised four compositions--fantasy, turne, and polonaise. Again he was obliged to add an encore. The final group was made up of numbers by hand !

One could have wished that he had chosen to give a north shore audience less familiar, not to say less hackneyed, numbers than Liszt's Dream of Love and Chopin's Nocturne in E Flat Major. Some- thing more modern, some Russian piece, would have been more accep- table. Again the Winnetka Music club has added to its laurels by sponsoring so notable an achievement.
