They often performed four-handed compositions together "Her playing is virile, yet withal delicate and poetic," explained a 1912 reviewer, "a lovely touch and poetic style combined with warmth of tone, but pervading all delicacy and refinement.] She was especially known for playing the works of Chopin.]Other collaborators included Arthur Nikisch in Berlin,Hungarian violinist Louis Pecskai,and Landon Ronald in London. She visited Sir Edward Elgar in 1918 and was promised the first performance of his piano concerto, then being sketched.[citation needed] Scharrer gave her first American concerts in 1926, in Boston and New York.[ She gave a radio concert in 1929.[ The roll was produced and manufacture by MEDCRAFT PIANO ROLLS LONDON, Great Britain.
