THE PHILBARMONIC CONCERT
Songs by MahIer and WeinEartneP in the
HIatoeical Series

The fourth concert Of the Philharmonic
| Society's historical series. which took
| place last night at Carnegie Hall, brought
the exposition OF music's progress up to
the very pedestal upon which Conductor
Mailer stood. Beginning with the Brahms
F major symphony and including
Dvorak's overture -In der Natur' and
Smetana's delightful prelude to -Vhe
Bartered Bride the programme con-
tanned groups OF songs by Weingartner.

exact relation Of these songs to musical
history is not clear. for neither Hugo
Wolf. who 10 dead nor the two conductor

have established their final positions in
the long perspective OF art.
However this may be, there were his
toric claims OF undeniable strength for
at least one OF the orchestral works chosen
for performance. Brahmss 8 third SYM
phony was played with precision and
intelligence by Mr.. Mahler and the or
chestra. There were restraint and balance
in their presentation of the irst three
movements and a fine energy In the vigor-
Gus themes OF the opening allegro, but
the crashing outbursts in the fourth
movement sent shiverS through the audi
torium door and were out OF proportion
to the dynamic soale upon which the
rest OF the performance had been built
up. There was moreover. a lack Of the
hushed beauty and glamour that this
Brahms music should communicate to
the hearers. Dvorak's overture went
with spirit. but Il does not bear the stamp
of indisputable immortality.
The FIVE -(hildren's Death Songs"
with text by Friedrich R1okert. were
set by Mr.. Mailer for solo voice and
orchestra. The poems are for the most
the emotions in children on whom the
seal OF deathiis set, or in those whom they
leave behind to suffer bereavement and
to look forward to reunion in a future
life. The spirit that prevails may be
suggested in these lines from the trans
lation Of the first song:
A lamp went out In my small home
Hail to the light In heavens dome
The music that Mr.. Mahler has written
for these sombre verses 10 evidently sin
oere in its reflection Of the text, but in
spite OF this fortunate quality and OF
numerous felicitiee in workmanship. il
cannot be taken as sounding the note OF
original thought. Mr.. Mailer feels but
he does not create. Every one OF the five
songs has some distinctive piece Of good
musical craftsmanship. such as the uni
sonal support OF the voice by the cellos
and lower wood winds In the second ana
OF the qelodIo line in the closing measures
Of the first and second stanzas OF the first
song and the prelude OF grurnbling strings
in the last OF the set But they do not
seem musically significant in the larger
sense.
The two weingartner songs. sThe
Earth Giant" and THE Last Dance, are
in much the same case. Though the
themes Of the text lend themselves to
more variety. there 10 little real invention.
