Yehudi Menuhin is perhaps the most remarkable prodigy violinist in the whole history of music. Born at New York in 1917, Menuhin was taken to his first concert at the ago of fourteen months, and, much to the surprise of his parents, he gave no trouble, and listened intently throughout a long orchestral programme. When three years of age Menuhin commenced to learn the violin, and* at six he played for the first time in public before an audience of 12,000 at the Civic Auditorium.
Menuhin's genius was manifest from the beginning, and within three or four years he had matured into a violinist of the front rank, fit to be compared with the greatest masters of his instrument, both from a technical and interpretative point of view.

This work, which had its first performance a few months ago, is based on Manx foLk-songs. The first, ' The Good Old Way,' is an old and typical air written mostly in the Dorian mode. The second tune, which introduces the lively section of the work, is a reel, The Manx Fiddler.' The third tune, ' Sweet Water in the Common.' relates to the old practice of summoning a jury to decide questions connected with watercourses, bountlaries, etc. The fourth is a fine old hymn, ' The Harvest of the Sea,' sung by the fishermen as a song of the thanksgiving after their safe return from the fishing grounds.
