MUSIC
SYMPHONY SOCIETY CONCERT

Doubtless the audience at the concert
of the Symphony Society yesterday
afternoon in Aeolian Hall found the
most interesting number Of 'ha pro-
gramme tc be the c major Wolf con-
certo of Haydn. The solo player was
Raoul Vidas. the young Frenchman who
without previous publicity walked into
favor two years ago. Walter Damrosclf
descended from The conductors podilim
to perform the harpsichord part on a
piano. while the baton was welded by
Rene Pollain. first viola and assistant
conductor OF the orchestra.
The old concerto written with an &C
compa niment of harpsichord and strings,
pleased the audience much by reason IF
its simplicity. it's transparency and the
fluent melody Of the solo part. Mr.
., n n. 10y o.o H.,
His tone did not assume an especially
rich quality I'm the resonant audience
cha mber, but IL was smooth and we'll
gra ded His finger and bow execution
was excellent. except at times In the
first movement. and HIS straightforward
treatment OF the unaffected old compost
ton entirely praiseworthy. The per-
foTmance of the composition served also
to show that the Symphony Society has
an assistant conductor who understands
his duties and pianist who can exhibit
discretion In the treatment of harpsi-
chord part.
'r. ca1~~r. bean wit, tNo "Sar'
made" recently heard at the organiza-
TONS historical Mozart concert In Car
regie Hall. After The concerto Brahms
- ma To- svr,pho-v was n'aved nd the
entertainment came to an end with Lalo's
intermezzo In 3 fiat. for violin and or
chestra. In which Mr. vidas again dis
played his well controlled art.
