Standby APPEARS AS
SOLOIST AND COMPOSER
New Quartet of His Composition
Performed at Annual Phila-
delphia Recital

The annual recital of Herman Sandby. for
merly solo cellist of the Philadelphia Orches-
ira, attracted good-sIzed crowd TO Wither-
spoon Hall last evening, and the audience
evidently liked the concert very much as
they insisted upon Mr.. Sandy giving two
encores at the conclusion of the program.
In his work Mr. Standby showed all that
perfect command of the fingerboard for
which he has always been noted. his left
hand work in rapid passages the double
stopping and.the harmonics. whether natural
or artificial. and no matter where they lay
on the fngerboard. being beyond criticism.
although there We're times when his tone
was not fully satisfying.
He began with the very difficult sonata
in D major of Locateln and followed with a
group of smaller compositions by Dvorak,
Mehul. Neruda and Boccherini. the latter
being an arrangement of the "Rondo" from
one of the string quintets. All were we'll
played and cordially received by the audi
ence, who insisted upon encore. in which
the soloist displayed some remarkable bow
technique, especially In the staccato pas
sages.
Mr.. Sandbys final solo group consisted of
a Nocturne OF his own, work new to Phila-
melodic. contemplative piece of music, Nor
wegian dance Of Halvorsen, the well-known
EN- Bateau" of Debussy and the brilliant
and melodious "Polonaise" of Pepper. He
was recalled many times by the audience. and
played the Spinning Wheel of Pepper and
the "Valse Triste" of Sibelius, the former
being well performed as anything he did
in the concert proper.
The main feature of the evenings pro-
gram, from the standpoint of novelty, was a
new string quartet composed by Mr.. Sandby.
The first movement begins with an ultra
modern series of dissonances which promises
something akin to Schonberg or Ravel, but
strangely enough, the development in along
much more conventional harmonic lines
There are many lovely places in the compo-
stion which strongly leans toward modern
ism. not only In the harmonies. but also in
the general vagueness of tonality and in its
lack of clearly defined melodic outline.
1t Is written to program the first move
ment being entitled Aspirations" the second
"Danse Fantastique," the third "Reverie" and
the last "Resolutions." Although a ceIlist
cello part, as virtusi are apt to do when they
essay composition and keeps it In its proper
position in the quartet in thematic and
melodc work. Incidentally, the composition
was beautifully played by Mr.. Sandby and
his associates, Messrs. Jyla Schkolnik. Frank
Gurowitsch and Herbert Borodkin all show
Ing q beautiful quality of tone, especially Mr..
Borodkin. the viola player, and all playing
with the taste and refinement demanded by
30 exacting composition.

HORSEMEN TURN TO AUTOS
Washington Company, in Existence Since
1856, Will Not Disband

The automobile almost put the Washington
Horse Company out of existence, but the
organization made a kick and It therefore
still lives
1t was learned today that the company
would remain in existence with automobile
owners in the membership. At a meeting of
the organization at Edge Hill progress made
by the automobile was reviewed and several
members suggested that the organization dis
band
Edward E. Fricker, past master of the COM
pany, reminded those present that 1t had
been in existence since 1855. He said It would
be unfortunate to dsband. and II was
finally agreed to continue the organization
under its present title.
