TUESDAYS CONCERT
Maier and Pattison, ''Pianists
of a Different Sort"-Mac-
Gregor Presents Bonnie
Scotland in Sweetest, Dear
est Song.


There is no more interesting and
attractive offering in the musical
world today than the programs for
TWO pianos given by Guy Maier and
Lee Pattison.
These Internationally famous
artists, who are of the same age and
VINO studied together not only at the
New England Conservatory of Music
at Boston, but also under Arthur
Schnabel in Berlin, have devoted
their efforts almost exclusively to
programs for two pianos. They
nave discovered works of unusual in
terest by modern composers, and at
tneir recital given in London last
June played nothing but present day
compositions in a list which repre-
scented Ropartz, Saint Saens, Debus-
sy, Arensky and >Ijinsky, composers
VINO hail from Spain, France and
Russia respectively. At their OPEN
ing New York recital in October
they added Italy in the person of
Casella to the list, and gave a fur
'her personal touch by including an
arrangement of the Coronation Scene
from Moussorgsky's Boris Godoun-
or by Mr.. Pattison himself, prov
ing that when composition not
originally scored for two pianos APP
peals to them, they have the versa
unity to make the necessary
changes.
Many items which are decidedly
novel and out of the ordinary are
promised in the program which thev
nave chosen from their Joint concert
mere with Knight MacGregor at City
Hall on next Tuesday evening. March
-9th and doubtless their coming will
create keen interest and gain for
/ them the same unstinted approval
winch they have received in Paris
ana London as well as in all the
principal American cities.
Among the pieces which thew will
play here is The Orgy" an anus
lnsly cxtravagant production by
liJinsky. work which has made an
unusual impression wherever it has
been heard. 1t was first introduced
at their opening New York and Bos-
ton recita1s last season and was
played by them in both Paris and
London during the past summer
How really effective" the work
proved in London, was shown by the
extraordinary enthusiasm of tho
audience, which not content with
clapping shouted it's approval. Mr.
Maier referred to this in a recent
Interview in New York, when he
said: when we played our last
number. Iljinskys Orgy We thought
we were at an American football
game, so great was the ovation"
Knight MacGregor is the artist
who sings the dear, sweet songs OF
Bonnie Scotland. He has a mag
nificent baritone voice, trained in the
schools of the masters to the high
est degree of perfection He feels
the spirit of his songs with a fervol
that is contagious. Long after he
departs, his songs live on in hearts
made glad. His genius is elastic
and his repertoire of ample range
He sings Bonnie Sweet Bessie" in
the same mastery fashion that he
sings the great aria from Handel
Hear Me, Ge Winds and Waves. =
