“It may be safe to say that, apart from a few conclusions which may be regarded as hasty. It is one of the most commendable books on the Hermit kingdom that have issued from the pen of foreign authors.” K. K. Kawakami.

Hullah, Annette. [Theodor Leschetizky.] *$1. Lane.
A recent addition to the “Living masters of music” series. “The story of Leschetizky’s career from his birth in 1830 down to 1905, is told in the first two chapters of the book. The five chapters following describe Leschetizky’s method of playing and technique, his manner of teaching, his class, and interest in each pupil, and lastly, Leschetizky as ‘the center of the circle.’ There are several pictures of the pianist as well as some showing him with certain pupils.” (N. Y. Times.)
“The story of this concentrated career is well and clearly told by Miss Hullah, who makes the discriminating point that Leschetizky is emphatically an individualist in his work.”

“Miss Hullah has given a lively picture of a personality prominent in the musical world in her work about Leschetizky.” Richard Aldrich.
