The China Mail Music Critic Says Of The Ricci Recital:

The Audience Was Spell-bound: This Was A Great Performance.

Saturday night's violin recital by Ruggiero Ricci at the University Hall was an event to which we had been looking forward; and so, it appeared, and many others, for the hall was full and the audience one of the most enthusiastic which the Music Society's concerts have drawn.

The last time the present writer heard Mr Ricci was 25 years ago,' when he was a boy of 12, in the old Queen's Hall in London; he has ful- filled his early promise and become a violinist of deservedly interna- tional fame.
