KOPTA CONCERT
PLEASES LOVERS
OF GOOD MUSIC

A fair audience gathered to hear
the third of the Kopta Quartet con-
certs yesterday afternoon at Lyric
Hall and seemed heartily to enjoy the
interesting matter presented. The
audiences at these concerts, by the
way, are not what they should be as
to number. Musically, they are all
they should be, for the musicians are
always there in their faithful scores.
But the music lovers. the students to
whom chamber music as we'll done as
it is done by the Kopta people should
especially appeal. are in a rather alb
surd minority. Perhaps it is not Who'll
ly their fault. The concerts are only
modestly advertised. Still, it is the
student and music lovers duty to be-
come aware of such things, knowing
that they are not of the billboarded
variety of entertainment. And the
series can be most heartily recon-
mended. At each concert some new
work of significance is presented, and
some of the classics revived, and al
ways worthily.
Yesterday afternoon the head and
front of the programme was the
beautiful Schumann quartet op. Al,
No. 1. To hear only the adagio was
worth going through yesterdays fog
for. Perhaps Mr.. Kopta was a little
inclined to hasten its Greek flow,
which, with the truer pulse of the
cello, slightly confused the measure,
but, on the whole, it was charmingly
played. The other movements were
all given with nice sympathy, the hui
morous limitations in the finale coming
with particular precision and fiuency
Arensky, in the piano quintet op.
81, furnished the afternoons novelty
Special color, either racial or per-
sonal, one does not find in much evil
dence here. The work is essentially
modern, in form rather remarkable
for the length of the scherzo and the
shortness of the finale. Best, per-
haps, of it's four movements are the
variations, of them the theme, broad,
distinctive and very gratefully har-
monized. Schumann is slightly sug-
gested in the treatment of the varia-
tions, and there are many charming
moments. The scherzo is clever in
the French fashion, piquant, Slick"
and a little obvious. One needs more
than one hearing of the opening al
legro. A ponderous and rather con-
fused movement it appears, dramatic
and colorful however, but lacking
definition. In addition, it was less
we'll played than the rest, in which
the players gave admirable account
of themselves. Mrs. Mansfeldt, nota-
bly, in some solo passages of the an
danta, was her most sympathetic and
discreet self. The other movements
were an adagio of Lachner's and the
Cherubini scherzo from the first quar-
tet. BLANCHE PARTINGTON.
