overshadowed by the perhaps too great
sentimental value given to its com.
panion piece, the famous Moonlight"
sonata, but a work of much freedom,
both in thought and form. Nine. Sam
arof did one Of the best pieces OF
work Of the evening in the el6nlike
second movement. w..
The third number was the sonata In
Il, op. II, No. /, conventional In form
and Mozartlike in simplicity except for
the Allegretto, the trio Of which con :
tains more feeling than is usually found
on Mozart piano sonata.
But the piece de resistance of the
evening was the Moonlight" sonata
regarding the origin Of which Mr. :.
Stokowski gave the Countess Guicciardi
version of the many legends which have
been written and told as to how the
work came into being. Nine. Samarofl

great sonata, which like all the other
numbers was very cordially received
by the audience.

third Of Nine. Samaroff's Beethoven
sonata evenings, with the interesting
and informative explanatory talks be

chosen, the four sonatas illustrating
highly different phases Of the composer
yet not going beyond the first Of TIL,
periods into which the works Of Bee

Samaroff opened with the sonata il
