MR. DAMROSCH however selected
4'l the austrian Hymn" variations Of
Haydn for the first experiment Of this
Kind, md the slow movement Of the De-
pussy string quartet in q minor FOR the
second. Here are two works which are
written Cgscntinlly for four string lnstru-
lnonts. and the effect WIS that the
Haydn sounded rather clumsy instead of
exceedingly graceful and delicate as
was the apparent Intention of the com
ros"r, while the atmospheric quality Of
tn" gnuzv DobusSy AeaEiO was lost on
tir"ly through the Use Of so many strings
aud in tive large hail; and this in spite
Of an undcnably unified performance
showing an immense amount of prepara-
tiOn of rehearsal.
Bul the point Is that these two num-
hers have all the essentials of chamber
must" and to be heard to their best ad-
vantage, must be performed AZ such
that is with one instrument to the Part
and preferably in Il small, or at least
wcdium-sacd hall; the MendelssOhn
octet. as tho composer by his note
