Richard Norton said:
Ignacy Jan Paderewski, GBE (Polish: [iɡˈnat͡sɨ ˈjan padɛˈrɛfskʲi]; 18 November [O.S. 6 November] 1860 – 29 June 1941) was a Polish pianist and composer, politician, and spokesman for Polish independence.[1] He was a favorite of concert audiences around the globe. His musical fame opened access to diplomacy and the media. He was the prime minister and foreign minister of Poland in 1919, and represented Poland at the Paris Peace Conference in 1919. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignacy_Jan_Paderewski Henry Edward Krehbiel (March 10, 1854 – March 20, 1923) was an American music critic and musicologist. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Edward_Krehbiel

Musical America ran this photo on May 26, 1917, identifying from left to right: Alexander Lambert, Franz Kneisel, Ignace Paderewski, Mrs. Paderewski, H.E.Krehbiel. The man at right is cropped out in Musical America. books.google.com/books?id=Gk80AQAAMAAJ&pg=RA2-PA48&am... "Franz Kneisel (26 January 1865 – 26 March 1926) was an American violinist and teacher of Romanian birth." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franz_Kneisel Lambert is probably the Alexander Lambert mentioned in Wikipedia's entry on the New York College of Music: " Alexander Lambert (1862–1929), a pianist, served as the second director from 1887 to 1905.[" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_College_of_Music
