Tone Poem. Tod und verklarung''. Strauss
This last OF the series Of five con-
certs by the Philadelphia Orchestra
was quite as varied and of as high
standard as any they have given
here.
The well balanced program
opened with magnificent overture
Richard Wagner and closed with
the Tod und verklarung" by Rich
ard Strauss. the most modern apos-
tie of Wagner.
In between came a sometime ST.
lent symphony of Mendelssohn's
and three modern Russian numbers.
Stokowski is scarcely on his stand
before he gives his sign and the
orchestra Is off-wonderful attack
The Wagner number was a por-
trGyal of the sea triumphant. a sea
of wonderful sound. a sea of color.
The Mendelssohn symphony was a
delight from the introduction, rich
i- harmony and beautiful organ ef-
fects. through the scherzo, which
gives the symphony its name
Scotch" and the Adagio Cantabile,
in which the song and the Priests
March alternate back and forth,
with some lovely passages for the
cellos: to the warning Allegro and
majestic finale. The Strauss Tone
Poem is. as We have said. thorough
ly wagnerian. but with bits Of
Strauss originality throughout.
There Is a beguiling bit of choral
that occurs only once but makes
one wish for il all. and a charming
little flute solo. In this compost
ti6n. too. the trombones come into
their own. In the three Russian
numbers. the orchestra was assist
ed by Nine. Nina Koshetz. Russian
soprano, who sings with great eX-
preston and with appealing soft
tones. She was at her best in the
lively Reverie and Dance of Nous
sorgsky. and received repeated re-
calls. The Prokefieff Melody is one
of those modern Russian arias. with
a remarkable accompaniment. the
whole thing suggesting disillusion
crd despair. As usual the orchestra
under StokowskTs inspired baton.
was remark able for tone, ensemble.
and phrasing. and was received
with merited enthusiasm.
