ADJUSTMENTS.


The first OF Mr.. Franz Rummel's series OF
afternoon recitals was given yesterday after.
noon in Steinway Hall. The programme was
one admirably arranged TO show to advantage
ms well Mr.. Rummel's skill as a performer as
his intelligence and sympathy as an In
terpretor. Hitherto this artist has been
heard in numerous concert performances. but
the difference between listening to one or two
nlOrcedtI. given in a miscellaneous concert.
and the hearing Of a pianist in the greater
range OF the different orders OF music possible
only In recital is OF the same nature as that
between looking AZ an isolated picture by an
artist and seeing his entire works grouped
together.
Perhaps 1t is notitoO much TO SAY that the SUI
preme test OF the pianist Is the plane upon
Mr.. Rummel. tried by that test. takes a very
high rank. Yesterday, In the scale Of his per-
iormance. he gave 10 the Prelude and Fugue OF
Bach arranged by List all that breadth and
precision OF technique that it demands In
Handels Suite in y was to be admired de-
iightfully quaint simplicity OF conception and
execution, while Schumann's Carnival In
poetic, impassoned and OF the most finished
order
As much cannot be said for the Beethoven
Sonata Appassonata" There was lack OF
his execution OF II he was guilty Of some pro-
nounced faults He played numberless false
notes. and much OF tho phrasing was OF a some
what careless order.
Rummel gave OF his selections from Chopin. he
gave evidence OF some OF his most poetic quail
ties as an artist.
AS is usually the case in these afternoon con-
certs. the audience was mostly composed OF
ladies. but, was large. appreciatiye. and most
enthusiastic one.
