VICTOR RED SEAL RECORDS
KUBELIK, JAN, Violinist (Koo’ -beh-leek)
This great artist was born in Michle, near Prague, on July 5, 1880. His father, an amateur violinist, began to teach him the violin when but five years old, and the boy made his first public appearance at the age of eight. When he was twelve he entered the Prague Conservatory, where he remained for six years. His wonderful success since that time is familiar to all, and he is now pronounced one of the most gifted artists of the century.
Kubelik’s genius has been epoch-making in the history of violin playing, his whole style of performance being strikingly orginal. But novel as are his feats of virtuosity, his immense hold upon his audiences is chiefly due to his impressive individuality and the passionate warmth of his playing.
The records which he has made for the Victor exhibit well his firm, pure and beautiful tone, his admirable technique and the amazing ease and freedom of his playing.

This young artist was born in Kentucky, and quite early in life seemed to have considerable talent as a composer. His parents sent him abroad for study, and after spending several years in Italy and Germany, he opened a studio in New York, devoting himself to composition and teaching.
It was during this period that young Martin discovered that he had a voice worth cultivating, and on the advice of Dr. Holbrook Curtis, went to Paris, where he studied with Sbriglia and Jean de Reszke. His début in opera took place in Nantes, France, in 1904, when he sang Faust. Later, in Verona, he appeared in Andrea Chenier with such success that he was engaged for Mr. Russell’s San Carlo Opera Company, which toured the United States in
1906-1907. Martin’s triumph with this company made
his Metropolitan engagement a foregone conclusion, and in the summer of 1907 he was
signed for a term of years.
