(1831–1907). Then she furthered her studies with Václav Huml in Zagreb
and with Arnold Rosé (1863–1946) in Vienna. Later, she made her name
mostly as a chamber musician with the Brandl Trio and the Maribor Trio
(Brandl–Klasinc–Bajde).70

Another of Huml’s private pupils and a violin teacher during the same
period was Ivan Karlo Sancin (1893–1974). From 1919, he was a violinist of
the Opera Orchestra, and a violin teacher at the Ljubljana Conservatory
(Music School) until 1922. One year later, he moved to Celje, where he was a
violin teacher and a headmaster of the Music Society School until 1941. Be-
tween 1941 and 1945, he moved to Ljubljana to become a member of the Op-
era Orchestra and a teacher at the Music Society School. After the war he
returned to Trieste and was active in various positions.71 Apart from Karlo
Rupel and Rok Klopčič, he was also a teacher of the child prodigy Miran Vi-
her (1919–2002) in Celje. Viher later furthered his studies with three Prague
violinists: Otakar Ševčík, Václav Huml, and Váša Příhoda, and he studied
composition with Franjo Dugan. Due to political reasons, he left his home-
land and became acclaimed as concertmaster of the Bavarian Philharmon-
ic Orchestra in Munich in the early 1950s. In 1956, he emigrated to the Unit-
ed States, where he was a member of the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra,
then the Princeton Chamber Orchestra, and finally the Opera Theater of
Saint Louis. He also taught at Webster University and privately.72
