THE FLOISZALEY STRING QUARTET
fLONZALEY QUARTET
At Hill Auditorium, Ann Arbor, Tuesday Evening, November 23.
The next number on the Choral
Union concert series given in Hill
auditorium, Ann Arbor, will take place
Tuesday evening, Novemver 23, when
the Flonzaley String Quartet' will
make its first appearance in this city
since the completion of its magnificent
music hall.
It is difficult to refer to this organization except in seemingly extrava-
gent superlatives. A single account
of the organization's personnel and
history is wholly inadequate to suggest the rare merit of this organization,
its remarkable achievements and its
unique Standing among chamber-
music bodies'not only of America but
of the entire world.
The Flonzaleys were organized originally by Mr. E. J. de Ooppet, a
wealthy "New York music patron, to
play for the delectation of himself and
his friends at his villa on Lake Geneva, Switzerland. The soirees given
at this residence, "Flonzaley," from
which the quartet derived its name,
became widely famed, and the playing
of the newly-formed quartet attracted
general attention. A few years later,
the Flonzaleys still as a private organization were brought to America with
a result that the demand for appearances became so insistent that a limited number of public concerts were arranged. The upshot was the adoption
of a public career which both in Europe and America has. brought honors
without number and an- acknowledged
place at the fore of present-day chamber-music organizations. In a very
few seasons the quartet has outstrip-'
ped its older rivals, its playing today
being accepted everywhere as the standard of artistic excellence.
One explanation of the FJonzaleys'
phenomenal success is- the fact that
they devote their entire time to the
cultivation of chamber-music. Their
singleness of purpose and lofty aims
are shown in a mutual agreement not
to teach, play in orchestra, or accept
individual engagements. The instruments used by the organization are a
Stradivarius, two Guadaginis and a
Testori, all of great value.
The program:
Quartet in D major, Cesar Franck;
Poco lento; Allegro; Scherzo; Lar-
ghetto; Finale.
"Three Pieces for Quartet" (Manuscript), Strawisky.
Quartet in D minor, op..76, No. 2,
Hadyn; Allegro; Andante piu Tosto
Allegretto; Menuetto; Finale.
christian ar.d every lover of righteousness to go forward in the interest of
God's kingdom, than this very moment.
