27 MUSICAL COURIER March 22, 1923 THE CRITICS SPEAK! ■ New York Evening Mail: It is always a commendable idea when one works hard to give others pleasure, and Carmine Fabrizio, playing his fiddle in Aeolian Hall yesterday afternoon, certainly relieved the tired look on the lady’s face sitting across the aisle from us. New York Evening World: He has a graceful, reposeful playing style. New York American: Mr. Fabrizio has qualities that intrigue the listener. ... He has taste and technical skill. His reading of Beethoven’s D major Sonata was sincere and unaffected, his sense of proportion was artistic, while his placing of accent and emphasis revealed a commendable dramatic appreciation. . NEW YORK New York Times: The passages which demanded fleet fingers and agile bowing were played with skill. . . . The slower-moving melodies were played with a full tone of deep emotional quality. Morning Telegraph: At Aeolian Hall . . . Carmine Fabrizio delighted his hearers. . . . The shorter pieces, beautifully played, included numbers by Saint-Saëns, Ketten-Loeffler, Ysaye and Vieuxtemps. New York Tribune: He is a player of taste and technical capacity. SEASON 1923-1924 NOW BOOKING cz— ) MANAGEMENT: WENDELL H. LUCE 492 Boylston Street Mason & Hamlin Building ״"’ BOSTON MASON & HAMLIN PIANO Boston Evening Transcript, Jan. 11, 1923: Mr. Fabrizio gains merit. There seems little likelihood that his performance fails in any respect to do the composer (Zandonai’s Concerto) justice, to disclose his full intent, and accomplishment. . . . He (Fabrizio) acquits himself well in music of many schools and styles. Boston Globe: Carmine Fabrizio . . . gave a recital last night at Jordan Hall to a large and applausive audience. . . . Mr. Fabrizio is an unusually capable violinist. Boston Post: He has in reflective passages a fine singing tone, his intonation is excellent, and his work on the upper register of the G-string was a revelation. BOSTON— Christian Science Monitor: Mr. Fabrizio played it (Zandonai’s Concerto) sympathetically, with a due understanding of its content, with virtuosity when virtuosity was called for by the music, with refinement of expression . . . played the music for its own sake with no attempt to make it serve the purpose of personal display. Boston Herald: Mr. Fabrizio showed himself possessed of a beautiful technique, one, at all events, that gives him command of warm, sweet tone and a fine neat fleetness in passages. . . . The evening long Mr. Fabrizio played with musicianly taste. Boston Telegram: Fabrizio, one of the finest artists of the day, knows how to pick and choose his program so that it will have popular as well as musical appeal. In other words, he plays to the masses. WHERE THEY ARE TO BE From March 22 to April 5 Kindler, Hans: Coatesville, Pa., Mar. 24. Konecny, Josef: Ponca City, Okla., Mar. 23. Blackwell, Okla., Mar. 26.

Joseph Diskay Sings for Radio Continued success follows Joseph Diskay, tenor, who is on tour with the Keith Circuit, singing with more beauty at every performance and winning the highest of praise from his audiences and the press alike. Recently he sang for the radio, when hundreds of thousands of persons had the pleasure of hearing a voice of much depth and feeling, and in return many letters of appreciation have been received by this artist at the various theaters where he is appearing. While on tour with this company, a reviewer of the Columbus Citizen said in part: “Josef Diskay, Hungarian tenor, occupies the fop position on this week’s bill. At any rate his well rendered and carefully selected concert Monday night was given a warmer reception than any other act on the program.” De Luca Engaged for Festivals Giuseppe De Luca, Metropolitan Opera baritone, has been engaged to sing at the Syracuse Festival on May 2, and at the Springfield Festival on May 4.
