The three young musicians, ..whom -we are so shortly to hear, are all endowed with unusuail gifts. Leo, the violinist, is 16; Jan, the brilliant young pianist and clever composer, is 13: while Alischel, the diminutive ’cellist, is only 11. During the three eventful years they have been before the public, they Dive succeeded in astonishing some of the most critica•audienees in Europe and to quote Lyphrase used by la London paper dea!inor with their concerts ati the Queen's Hall. “All three have figuratively speaking, really and truly set Mho Thames on fire,’ the blaze of winch cannot fail to catch on.”
