The Baltimore Sun of February 2
says of the playing of John Adams
Hugo Ca nephew Of ex-Town Agent
Huga of New Haven at concert in
Baltimore as follows: "The eighth of
the series of Peabody recitals took
place yesterday afternoon at the insti-
tute, the soloists being John Adam
Hugo, pianist, and Charles III. Raold,
baritone, both of the conservatory
Mr. Hugo opened the concert with
Mendelssohn's prelude and fugue in r
minor and Beethoven's sonata in
minor, op TO- No. l. This was the
second recital given by Mr.. Hugo, and
was a marked Improvement over the
previous one. In the first the pianist
labored under a serious disadvantage,
having met with an accident to his
hand, and was, therefore, not able to
show his mastery of technique. But
yesterday he was in remarkably good
form, and his technique and his music
al ability were exhibited to the highest
degree His rendering of the Men
delssohn's fugue was fine example of
pianistic skill, but it was more partic-
ularly in the Interpretation of the Bee
thoven sonata that the musician shown
forth He followed with Paderewski's
"Melodie' in G fiat major, and Chopin's
"Etude" in c minor and "Ballade" in
G minor. The Etude oftentimes spok-
en- of as "The Revolutionary Etude,
is composition that abounds in tech
nical difficulties. This work Mr. HUI
go played in very brilliant style His
of the "Ballade" was
original and interesting. AS to wheth-
er his reading of it was good or not, is
entirely matter of opinion. Every |
artist has the right to interpret the |
classic works according to his |
own conception, and certainly Mr. HUI |
COS idea of somewhat forcibly accent |
uating the contrasts, thus imparting to |
the full, the romantic character of the |
is not at all bad one, but |
simply new reading of the work An |
octave study by himself, dainty, clev- |
err piece of work which was so enthusi- |
astically received that it had to be re-
peated, and the List transcription of |
Wagner's march from "Tannhauser''
the pianist's share of the re-
cital."
