RACHMANllOFF SCORES
IN ARTISTIC RECITAL
Distinguished Russian Performer
Delights Large Audience
At Polls Theater.

Someone has said of Rachmaninoff-
that gaunt impenetrable figure at the
piano-that his playing has SO murh
of delicate lightness in 1t and yet
SO much Of profoundness. At his
piano recital yesterday afternoon The
great Russian chose a program qutee
full of that delicate tracery in music
upon which the waltz OF three ma
tons cast its spell. The concert was
the fourth in the Philharmonic
Course, and again Polls Theater was
filed with an overflow on stage and
standing.
Programs M. Rachmaninoff has given
that tear ones spirit with the depth
of their tragedy and tenseness. And
even over his lighter moods there
hovers a mantle of melancholy, OF
seriousness that holds one in evcr
eager expectancy as to what ne VIII
reveal anew of his own fertile fancy
In the music he interprets.
Played with Feeling.
For Serge Rachmaninoff is not an
orthodox. In yesterdays program or
many classics-of Beethoven, Mem
delssohn, Chopin-he seemed to take
each composition, look into its music
soul, and let it speak through lIs
fingers the things 1t said to him.
His Beethoven was wayward. But
the rugged master himself surely did
not establish the suavity-the school
girl spirit with which we are wont
to think of Beethoven sonata.
This was the Opus 81.
There is a marked repose always
with Rachmaninon-it is felt in his
most florid passages. The Mendelss-
sohn "Rondon Capriccioso" was taken
with his personal deliberation while
his romance melody was a mastery
gift of beauty, of sentiment and Of
exquisite ripples and runs of pure
pianism.
The waltz came with the Chopin
"Ballade." again slowly, clearly artic-
ulated, yet lightly profound! 1t came
again in the programmed Chopin
waltz. simply, and in the encore
waltz. the Chopin d nat. Then MS
own waltz, opus 10, with its singing
notes and rich inside voices, given
with the unusual accents that assert
the Rachmaninoff individuality.
Interpretstien of Artist.
The Faust" waltz dramatically
brought out those biting chords Of
his--short, hard-but again he trans
forms a rhythm and adorns 1t with
subtlety and with laughter. Tender
romance spoke in the meeting" NJ
Faust and Marguerite.
A Pierrot fete scene was his tenn
pestuous "Etude Tableau." op. 80,
and he gave for encores the Mendels-
sohn Spinning Song" La Fileuse,"
the Chopin ID fiat waltz, and his own
great prelude" in c sharp minor.
When the great artist interprets,
and chooses a mood for a program.
his eloQuence Is a new page in music
ideals and ideas. Rachmaninon loft
tragedy yesterday, and told exquisite
ly of fair things in musjc's realm.
The seating Of the audience in the
middle of the opening Beethoven
sonata is q type Of discourtesy that
we should guard against. The same
occurance caused Nine. Homer to
leave the stage in the middle of n
