Description

Magazine caption: This young musician has no time to waste in telling what he is going to do. Like Schubert in his garret-room, the present is his chief consideration. He is not afraid of poverty nor “what people say.” He knows that if he keeps on working he will some day be a great artist and will hold thousands of music lovers captivated. He is tasting of the sacrifices of which Great Masters are made.
