Mechanical Angers aru provided, which play upon the neck of each violin in response to the perfors- tions of the paper roll as it passes over the usual pneumatic tubes. The vibrato or tremplo which, gives to violin playing its human quality is obtained, not

the

-living artist obtains it.. by means of the finger on the neck of the violin, but by vibrating the string at the base of the violin. The musical result is the same.

The only effect which cannot be ob tained on the instrument is that of the glissado; in other words, that rapid alid.. ing of the finger along a string which produces the characteristic moaning of a violin in legatissimo playing. Still, the lack of the glissande is hardly noticeable. to the first place, the glissnade is used. by the great violinista sparingly, and in the instrument itself a perfect legato is obtained, which is an excellent substitute for it.
