The chief number on the programme
was Schubert's c Major symphony.

pronounced and unusually difficult
rhythmic figures in which the orchestra
exactly answers the piano. A short
cello solo is accompanied by the piano.
There is some fine big work with the
entire orchestra. in which Mr.. Ganz
proved himself a prince of pianists.
Mr.. CAM is a sovereign pianist not
only by reason of his big forceful play
