3d'Aranyi, Yelly, violinist; grandniece of Joachim, and sister of the violinist, Adila Fachiri; b. Budapest, May 30, 1895. She studied with Hubay in Budapest; made her concert debut in New York on Nov. 26, 1927; made her second American tour in 1932. She has frequently appeared in joint recitals with Myra Hess. A pioneer in modern music, she has given first performances of many new works. Béla Bartók's violin sonatas, Ravel's Tzigane and Vaughan Williams' violin concerto are dedicated to her. In 1937 she attracted considerable attention by proclaiming that Schumann's spirit appeared to her and revealed the secret of his unpublished violin concerto; the MS of the concerto, long known to have been preserved at the Berlin State Library, was made available to her, but the concerto was given its first performance by another violinist in Germany in 1937; Yelly d'Aranyi played it on Feb. 16, 1938 with the B.B.C. orch. in London.
