Auberti, a violoncellist at the Italian theatre at Paris, published some music for that instrument. He died about 1805.
'Auer, Leopold. This admirable performer, still living, was born at Veszprim, Hungary, according to Riemann, on May 28th, 1845. He received his early training at the Prague Conservatorium under the tuition of Ridley Kohne, and then at the Vienna Conservatorium under J. Dont; his finishing lessons being left in the hands of Joachim, at Berlin. He then commenced an extended tour which lasted four years. In 1863 he received his first appointment as Concert-Master at Diisseldorf, and in 1866 he was appointed leader of the Imperial Band at St. Petersburg, and since that date, solo-violinist to the Court, and Professor of the violin at the Conservatoire of St. Petersburg. Auer is one of the most distinguished living performers, and he has on several occasions delighted a London audience with his wonderful playing.

ellent performer on the violin.
