Casella Gives His First
Piano Recital Here
Playing Discloses Him as Con.
servativc Almost to Monotony
in Treatment Of Comn0sera


Alfredo Casella, Italian composer
small, have recently been heard in New
York concert halls, gave his first piano
recital here last evening at Town Hall.
Mr.. Casella was described on the pro-
gram as the "Apostle of Italian Mod
ernism:" AS regards his compositions
which have been made known thus far,
he might better bo described as the
apostle of ugliness. In the capacity In
which he appeared last evening, how
recital disclosed him as pianist, dry
as to touch and conservative almost to
monotony in his treatment of the
various composers on the program.
These naturally included modernists--
Debussy, Albeniz, Malipiero and him
seif--as we'll as Beethoven, Scarlatti
and Cesar Franck. But in his per-
formance of Debussy's Five Preludes
and of Albenz's "Evocation" and Gel
his playing of four little pieces by
Scarlatti. His own Eleven Pieces for
Children and Malipiero's "Risonanze"
were more innocuous than other re-
Gently heard works of the Italian
ultra modernists, and in these the
pianist was both obviously at home and
at his best.
Another pianist, probably. one Of the
greatest artists of the pianofortc now
before the public, Nine. ELY Ney, ap-
peared at Carnegie Hall in the afternoon
in an all-Chopin program. Her superla-
tive performance of Chopin's music was
akin in artistic stature to her interpre-
tations of music by other composers
heard at her former recitals.
The third recital-giver of the day,
the violnist, Emil Telmanyi, also an
artist of the first rank, who played at
Aeolian Hall in the afternoon, repeated
the fine impression left by his playing
at previous appearance.

splendidly done that we would not have
missed them for anything.
All criticism should be constructive,
but how can one possibly say wherein
our own pictures fall down when 1T
comes to comparison with these foreign
flms7 Why, we did not once even think
of the continuity, the titles or tho
lighting! The tale as 1t unfolds holds
you spellbound.
The names Of the supporting cast are
not given but the players were all more
than adequate. Horatio, Fortinbras and
Polonius were especially good. No ex-
pense has been spared in putting the
picture on. A large orchestra played

The New PLAY
By Percy Hammond
Conway Tearle Returns to
the Theater as a Mad Dog
in ssThc Mad Dog''
THE CAST

Mr.. Scarborough last evening at the
Comedy Theater asked no one to sug-
gest improvements Ia his play, "The
Mad Dog" wherein Mr.. Conway Tearlc
emerged from the silences Of the cinema
to the audihility, If not the intelligi-
bility, of the wordy drama.
Yet one feels impelled, after watch
Ing its rabid progress through three
4everish acts, to propose soothing
influence. That is, that Mr.. Cohan
might inoculate it with the healing
chemics of his gifts of travesty, and
remedy it as he did, for instance, "The
Tavern" The piece, 1t seemed to me.
yearned for burlesque treatment, so
hectic were the character and the 60
tngs-on of its principal figure. In ac-
tions he was hydropbobiac, as he was
meant to be. and in speech a frenzied
rhetorician. His indisposition. I thought,
was fatal to the enjoyment of other
pleasant elements in the performance,
and the diagnosis and prescription are
submitted as bit of helpful, construc.
tive criticism.
Mr. Tearle impersonated Rab Mob
ley (the crab" perhaps being a dimin-
utivs for Rabies), an ugly cutthroat.
escaped from Colorado penitentiary,
where he was imprisoned for the mur-
der of his faithless sweetheart. While
evading the sleepy shcriffs of southern
Arizona he took refuge in the old San
Pablo Mission, finding no one there ex-
cept Maria (Miss Helen Menken), the
ward of the padre. AS she ministered
to his wounds and gave him food he
barked and growled at her, blasphem-
Ing the while the sacred implements of
her faith. Finally, he overpowered and
harmed her, permitting Miss Menken,
in the preliminary processes, to offer
= remarkable exhibition of anguish and
terror.
The experience having cnnobled the
"Mad Dog" he returned to the mission
the next day and asked her to shoot
him. This she did, after considerable
parley, and in her hatred she allowed
him to writhe for hours upon the Aoor
of the living room. begging her in vain
for water. Eventually he recovered,
and with his convalesence came regen-
Grafton. Keen were the pangs of his
regret and exalted the demeanor Of his
repentance. So Maria discarded the
fne young lover of the first act and
went away with her improved ravisher
across the border into Mexico. "God
let me course and compass true" cried
the Mad Dog, as they departed, for he
was an ex-civil engineer.
A footnote on the playbill explains
this strange behavior as follows. "Na-
ture loves not to be questioned why
she did this or that-she has her ends
--and knows that she does WE'LL"
