Harold Bauer, the first pianist who
has visited us this season. tried a
rather daring experiment yesterday
afternoon at Scottish Rite auditorium
and got away with 1t. The experi-
ment was in giving US program
composed wholly of dance music,
ranging from the academic Bach suite
in G minor to the colorful fandango
of the Spaniard granados, the last new
to US. And by the poetic quality OF
his interpreted tive power. which he
surely possesses in a rare degree, he
made the program one of variety and
interest to the educated musician
and the occasional concert goer,
both of whom were present in goodly
numbers.
In spite of Bauer's heralded reputa-
ton as the Master Pianist" the writer
is inclined to the belief that poet OF
the piano is a more suitable cogno-
men. 1t is in the quieter moments OF
the Bache Sarabande or the Beethoven
Menuet that the poetic insight of
Bauer reaches out and speaks to the
heart OF the listener.
Bauer. the personification OF poise
and dignity at the piano, usesno trick
of affectation to gainethe appreciation
of his audience. Few artista get the
Bauer volume OF tone without pounds
ing Still fewer can draw the pro-
longed singing quality of tone this
man gives us. This latter can prob
ably be attributed to the fact that
Bauer originally became a skillful
violinist, and uses the pedal OF his
piano with the same mental process
that he would use In drawing his vio-
lin bow.
The Chopin Polonaise in F sharp
minor revealed a wonderful control of
Idynamics and the afternoons biggest
volume OF tone. This number evoked
the greatest applause and the audi
ience clamored for an encore. but did
not get it.
Mr.. Bauers second concert will be
given Thursday evening. November s,
