She stayed firmly planted on her piano stool, tossing off encore after encore even after Richard M. Tobin came on stage to present her with a string of pearls from the Orchestra Association. Backstage Conductor Molinari snatched up his hat and overcoat, started for the door muttering: "It's an insult to the orchestra, the most confounded impertinence I ever heard of."
