HUB SYMPHONY
I. CAPTTVATES in
FINE MUSICALE
With Cortot as Soloist
Audience Is Charmed
By Program.

The largest audience that has at
tended the concerts of the Boston
Symphony Orchestra this season
thronged the New National Thester
yesterday afternoon when Alfred
Cortot appeared as the soloist. At
the conclusion of the magnificently
rendered Saint-Saens Pianoforte
Concerto No. 5 in F major, op. lo3.
there was a tumult Of vocal and
manual manifestations of approval
There is no need to speak OF the
amazing technique of Cortot; IL is
adequate for any demand Of virtuo-
sity. His tones are marked with q
purity and beauty which he produces
by a marvelously sensitive touch on
the keys. This master is able to get
singuIarly beautiful tone colors and
contrasts throughout his entire
range from the most delicate plan
issimo to a great laundering fortis-
simo. The concerto Itself is Of un-
usual beauty.
Captivating Theme.
For the opening orchestral num-
Der Pierre Monteux, the conductor,
had selected Lalo's Overture to lie
Roi d'Ys." This composition abounds
in the most captivating OF themes
Andantino non troppo, taken from
Rozenn's air En- silence pourquoi
souffrir?' in her duet with Mar
CARED. An overture to the opera
was performed for the first time,
November IL, 1875, but it was re-
modelled and played in its present
form for the first time, January "a,
1886.
The symphony was Schumann's
No. in D minor, Op. 120. Its title
states that the composition is "in
one piece" the parts passing into
one another without pause. The
orchestra brought out with striking
force the full beauties of the second
movement which opens with a
simple, plaintive and exquisitely re-
fined melody that fingers in the
memory.
Balakireff,s 'IsIamey" an Oriental
fantasy, orchestrated by Alfredo
Casella was the concluding number
The work is thoroughly Arabian in
character and formed a fitting close
to one of the. most enjoyable con-
Certs given by this organization the
present season. The concert was
under the local management Of Mrs.
Katie Wilson-Greene.
