maturity of musical thought, the deli
cacy or the vigor as the various pas
sages required and above all the abso--
lutte balance between the solo part ana
the orchestral accompaniment, together
with the reverent attitude of the player
toward the great masterpiece he was
interpreting, made Mr.. krelsler read
ing of the concerto one never to be for-
gotten. The strength and vigor of the
first movement. the tonal beauty ana
grace of the slow movement and the
restrained gayety of the finale with the
strongly contrasted melancholy of the
second theme, were all brought out IN
their fullest beauty by Mr.. Kreisler.
A word should also be said as to the
cadenza to the first movement, work
of Mr.. Kreisler's. written some years
ago but remodeled since. 1t is n won
derful piece of writing for the violin,
not only in it's construction but also IN
the manner in which it carries out the
style of Beethoven and fits perfectly
into the place allotted to it. 1t follows
closely the themes of the movement but
vet has much originality of develop
ment.
The other feature of the program was
the new symphony by Vincent d'lndy,
entitled "a Short Symphony on the
War in France.
The composition is SCARCELY sym
phonic in character, but is more like
an elaborate tone poem. 1t is charac-
teristically dIndy throughout in its
vagueness of melodic treatment, the
harshness of it's dissonances, although
it must be admitted that this effect is
gained more often by the instrumental
tion employed than by the actual notes
of the dissonant chords. In it Mr..
d'Indy at no time rose to a very high
point of inspiration, although much Of
the composition is extremely interest Q
ing. However, it does not appear to
be a work which will make much of IN
impression, either upon contempora
neous or permanent music. The first
and the closing movements were the
best, and both promised well at their

such an ovation. after performance

orchestra as well. After Mr.. Kreisler
had been recalled almost dozen times,
the members of the orchestra, all ap-
plauding heartily, rose to their feet and
remained standing while Mr.. Kreisler
was on the stage. A goodly number of
the audience did the same. 1t was re-
markable tribute to great artist.
Although a new symphony by Vim

was played first, the feature of the
evening was Mr.. Kreisler's performance
of the Beethoven concerto. In this work

alone among violinists. Technique, fine
intonation, beauty of tone were all
there in abundance but these details are
