Sergei RachmaninofF played before

Sergei Rachmaninoff played before
a large audience yesterday afternoon
at Carnegie Hall The distinguished
Russian has formed the habit of an
nouncng his recitals as Concerts of
Music for the Piano" an excellent
characterization, for his concerts in
varlably provide rare aesthetic enjoy
ment, in striking contrast to the usual
order of pianistic prowess which audi
ences are called upon to admire at the
average piano recital. This does not
mean that Mr. Rachmaninoff is not an
accomplished pianist. He is all of that
and much more, for he does not count
fame with display of digital dexter
ity, but rather dstls the very essence
OF each composition
He began with Mozarts sonata No. g.
played with a supreme understanding
of the composers style. This was fol-
lowed by five of Mendelssohn's songs
without words 32, 3, A. 81 and II
-four numbers by Chopin, ballade,
barcarole and two waltzes in E fiat
major and G fiat major. Then came
three of his own compositions, two
ctudes, tableanx, marzialle and ALA
maria tunebre, end barcarole. The
first two were played for the first
time. They are not Of his best, and
the second suggested the thought that
he, too, momentarily has been stricken
with the prevailing malady of disso
nsnces. At least three were numerous
drunken cords and prevailing effect
Of "sweet bells tangled out of tune"
He closed with Liszt's Spanish rhap-
sody, too meretricious in character to
be wholly in keeping with the intel
lectual and emotional depths of the
player, whose brilliance in this piece
seemed trif1e forced.
Mr.. Rachmaninoff showed his Gus
tomary generosity in the number Of
extra pieces added at the end of the
concert. 1t was an afternoon of rare
enjoyment, which one feminine mem
ber of the audience attempted to turn
into prima donna recital by tossing
bouquet of violets onto the stage.
The flowers fell squarely at the COM
poser's feet and to his evident en-
