BAUER AND CASALS PLAY.
Third Joint Appearance Of Pianist

Harold Bauer, pianist. and Pablo
Casals, cellist, were heard together last
evening In Aeolian Han. This was the
third time the two had played in a
chamber music entertainment and there
seemed to be- little II any decrease u
public interest. The audience was
large and the applause was OF the UNI
mistakable kind, The programme con-
sisted Of Beethoven's sonata In q minor,
opus r, No. 2. Mendelssohn's sonata in
d major, opus IS. and Cesar Franck's
in A major. originally written for piano
and violin.
Perhaps the composition Offering the
largest illusion OF novelty was that Of
pieces are seldom heard In these days.
The sonata, which was composed In
lS43 and is therefore not an early but
a late work, radiates with the
lasting juvenlity Of Mendelssohn re-
peats frankly many Of his most familiar
melodic formulas and carries itself OF
trlumphRntly by sheer buoyancy OF
spirit and airy confidence, II Is happy
music and can be heard without wear-
ness, except by those whose pleasures
are "sickled DER with the pale cast Of
thought"
The work was played with splendid
hriliancy by the two artists. albeit there
was n little more Bauer than Casals IN
