THE INTERNATIONAL STRING QUARTET :
ANDRE MANGEOT (Violin)
BORIS PECKER (Violin) FRANK HOWARD (Viola)
HERBERT WITHERS (Violoncello) TONIGHT'S Player-Piano Recital is of particular interest to music-lovers, many of whom may not hitherto have recognized the real musical importance of the instrument since the long-ago days of the earlier, cruder forms of pianola. Player-Pianos have gained enormously by the invention which enables them to record the actual playing of the master-pianists. A notable item in tonight's programme will be the Schumann Pianoforte Quintet, Op. 44, in which the Player-Piano will play together with a quartet of instrumentalists.
