Percy Graingers music has of late years
been a favorlte of'walter Damrosch, who
introduced Molly on the shore" to this
city. So 1t was not strange In the Academy
last night that the spoiled Australian
darling had the pre-eminent position on
the first program OF the New York Sym
phony Society's season here. AS usual,
Granger walked away with the crowd.

his "In Nutshell suite made some OF
the Beethoven fans leave the building In
digniied haste. while others. not vowed TO
tho classics, muttered puns about 'Peck's
Marimbad Boy" and the like.
Say what you Will, It was jolly good
amusement, The suite. divided into four
parts, and dedicated 10 such celebrities as

Granger, the impetuous, the purple, had
restrained his love Of syncopated pomp and
changing circumstance once too often. Those
qualities simply wouldn't be held in any
longer.
The third movement Pastoral was
omitted. but Mr.. Damrosch made up for
that by handing the baton 10 the accom-
panyng pianist, and playing the piano
score for the last movement himself. IL

lsste Heekscher's "Gipsy Lullaby" Martins
Minuet, IN which she was at her best
