i -- November 21, 1925 hive WINNETKA TALK 17 NOTED TRIO COMING Elshuco Players of New York to Ap- pear in Chamber Concert at Kenil- worth Dec. 6; Internationally Famous Sunday afternoon, December 6, the Elshuco Trio of New York, will give a recital in the Kenilworth Assembly hall. Persons having no season tickets can purchase single admission tickets at the door. This is one of the Chamber Musical recitals. Who are the members of the Elshuco Trio? The best known is Willem Willeke, the eminent Dutch 'cellist, who was the violoncello of the Kneisel quartet during the last dozen years of its existence. Mr. Kneisel brought him from Holland to fill the place occupied for so many years by the veteran Alwin Schroeder, and since then Mr. Willeke has played a prominent part in instrumental music in this country. Not only was he with the Kneisel quartet but he has been soloist with the leading orchestras of the country, has been first 'cellist with the New York Symphony orchestra and one of the assistant conductors of that organization. His years with the ¥Kneisels," as the quartet was affec- tionately known, gave him experience and training that has been invaluable to him in his work with the trio, for than Franz Kneisel there has never been .a greater master of chamber music. William Kroll, the violinist, was born in New York, where he gave recitals at a very youthful age and was acclaimed as a wonder child. Sub- sequently, in Berlin, he entered the Hochschule and studied for three years unaer Marteau, returning, at the beginning of the war, to New York where his several Aeolian Hall recitals met with great success. Mr. Kroll's studies were continued with Mr. Franz Kneisel and his long experience in playing chamber music under the supervision of both Mr. Kneisel and Mr. Willeke makes him a valued member of the Trio. Aurelio Giorni, the pianist, is an Italian, a graduate with first honors from the very ancient and very famous Academy of St. Cecilia in Rome, whose standards in the art of music are hardly equalled by those of any school in the world. He was but fifteen when he won his honors in Rome and then he put himself under the instruction of Busoni, his famous countryman. Giorni, who has been in America now for several years, must be counted as a most prominent member of that band of young Italian composers who are accomplishing so much for the cause of their art. His compositions show an individual genius that promises to bring him into the foremost rank of the composers of our time. Don't Forget to Return Crutches You Borrowed! One of the services which Commu- nity House renders to the Village is to keep on hand a supply of crutches to lend to anyone who may need them. These crutches have been sent in to the House at different times by people who no longer have use for them. So great has been the demand dur- ing the past year that there have been times when the supply could not possibly meet the numerous requests. In view of the great demand, those who borrow crutches are urged to re- turn them just as soon as they are through using them. If there are those who have crutches they would like to give to Community House, they may be left at the office, or if they will phone Winnetka 538, the crutches will be called for.
