RECORD CELEBRITIES.
T2ENNO MOISEIVITCII, the famous pianist, opens yet another tour of New Zealand at the Town Hall, Wellington, on May 24. Moisei vitch, now long been associated with gramophones and has made many striking records for H.M.V. His work is characterised by delicacy of interpretation and masterly technique. Moiseivitch, now on his third tour, under the J. and N. Tait management, recently completed a remarkablj- successful tour of the East. He was greatly fascinated by the Orient. “It is amazing,” he said, “how Japanese audiences clamour for Western music and Western artists. In Tokio I gave five recitals on five consecutive nights, and of the large crowds that attended 75 per cent were always Japanese. They are anxious to encourage European artists, and desirous of developing their own talent on Euro pean lines.”
