Indeed, when the iridescent bubble of
reputation ioated out from her modest
dressmaking rooms in East Twenty

has rushed past, because she had no
leisure for it, felt her heart open like a
grateful flower when life brought her

one spring day three of them in shining

SCHMIDT QUARTET CONCERT
Interesting Program at Witherspoon
Hall Last evening

IVdl Last evening
The Schmidt Quartet composed OF
Emil r. Schmidt, first violin Louis
Angeloty, second violin; Alfred Lorenz,
yiol, and William A. Schmidt, cello,
gave the first of a series of three cham
Der music concerts at Witherspoon Hall
last evening before a good sized au
dicnce.
They began with little known quar-
tet by Felix Blumenfeld, contein
poraneous Russian composer. The work
follows the classic style closely, and IL
simple enough in construction and in its
harmonic and melodic scheme to be
readily understandable at first hearing.
something that cannot be said of many
of the quartets Of the last twenty five
years. Its themes are definite and are
developed along the customary lines. It.
is not one of the great quartet produc
tions like the Brahms quartet in y
fiat, but it is melodous and well worth
an occasional public hearing.
Two other compositions were also
presented, the Italian Serenade of Hugo
Wolf, which is much more Spanish than
Italian in its first themes, and the
ID fat quartet of Dohnanyi, a
work of more pretensions than solidity
The Wolf quartet was originally COM
posed for string orchestra, but has
achieved such popularity in the quartet
form that it is now rarely presented in
the original. 1t Is one of the few works
which sound better in revised than in
the original form.
The quartet played beautifully. with
fine quality of tone, perfect balance
and blending of the parts and n unity
of performance that can be attained
only through hard and intelligent re
hearsal. The Italian Serenade is u
very difficult and treacherous compost =
tion to play, but it went through without
an apparent flaw. The members of the
quartet have high ideals regarding.
quartet playing and are evidently work
| ing toward q realization of those ideals
without any thought of "playing to tne
gallery" or of anything except of per 2
forming the works selected in the best
manner possible.
