Présentation de l'éditeur

Many of my friends have said to me frequently, You who have traveled so much and have made so many people happy by your music, why do you not write your experiences? They would assuredly be of interest not only to artists but to the public in general. Thus urged I decided to write this book, simply as a raconteur with a pretty good memory, and tell as succinctly as possible in an unpretentious way some of the phases of my artistic life, impressions, episodes and reminiscences, comprised in a career of upwards of fifty years. My letters to the paper La Meuse of Liege, Belgium: my diary kept from time to time when visiting new countries, and my lectures on the History of the Violin, given in French andE nglish, have been a great help to me in writing these Memories. OviDE MusiN. New York Dec. 2S th 1919. Note The fac-simile of the autographic letter of Leopold II of Belgium to his sister Charlotte, Empress of Mexico, dated 1866, which appears on page 268 was nearly prophetic of the war of 1914, and, had this Monarch been alive at the time, it is possible that the war would not have taken place; for his advice was listened to by every Monarch of Europe, and in fact Leopold II was called The Diplomat of Europe.
