CHRISTMASCONCERT
MOST DELIGHTFUL
Philadelphia Orchestra and
Audience in Merriest of
Holiday Moods
DR.. RICH DELIGHTS
AS THE SOLOIST

The Christmas concert OF the Phila-
delphia Orchestra at the Playhouse last
night was attended by an audience OF
splendid proportions in the merriest OF
holiday moods. Dr.. Stokowski and
the orchestra men were inspirited by
the enthusiasm Of the house, and gave
rarely beautiful program with con-
summate mastery.
Dr. Thaddeus Rich, concertmeister OF
the orchestra. and soloist for the even
ing. is always a prime favorite with
WilT0ington audiences. Last night he
played the wonderful violin Concerto
in D, by Tschaikowsky, TO the great de-
light Of the music-loyers. Or. Rlch's
exquisitely beautiful violin notes, with
his delicacy OF shading and power Of
expression, made the playing Of the
concerto an event long TO be remem-
bered by local orchestra patrons.
Beethoyen's Seventh Symphony was
a happy choice for a Christmas pro-
gram. The graceful melody Of the
Beethoven music, expressive OF the
serenity and cheerfulness of spirit, re-
aected the mood of the audience in this
season Of victorious peace. The tripping
dance measures OF the first movement
seemed to III the musicians themselves
with a spirit OF gaiety and exhilaratlon
which produced a lightness OF touch
and a tonal beauty characteristic OF
Beethovens spirit and Or. Stokowskl's
mastery leading. The work is not all
Joy despite It's frequent classification
as an exposition of the dsnce. The
blithesome rhythm gives way to music
OF a more sombre vein and the almost
dirge-iike passages were impressive not
only in their reading but In their eff
feet. These passages opened the allie
gretto movement, which was consis-
tent throughout The sparkle and ami
nation returned with the scherzo and
continued throughout the finale and
brought TO a close a .verltable feast
Of melody" more often spoken Of than
realized. The "Espana Rhapsody" by
Chabrier. was the concluding number
on the program and was full Of piquant
dance rhythms. Here again DR.. Stok0w-
ski demonstrated his ability TO inter-
pret and produce.
When December 23rd was announced |
as the date OF the second concert of |
the series, there were many dissenting |
voices based on the close proximity |
to Christmas. That the choice of The |
date was happy one, was evidenced |
by The size Of the audience.
Many beautiful gowns were worn by |
society women, and the concert was a |
gala OCCASION.
The next concert, on January 27th, |
will have Jacques Thibaud for It's solo |
list. and the program will be an
nounced later.
