The New York Symphony Orches-
ira has played the most popular Of
all of the Beethoven symphonies-
the 7th-so often, that II is difh-
cult to say just how far Mr.. Coates
was responsible for this last pre-
sentation. The only marked differ
ence, aside from minor variations
in phrasing. is perhaps that Mr..
Coates plays il as whole more
softly. though it lost nothing in
color or beauty by this. Indeed his
pianissimos are very beautiful and
effective. The allegretto. as usual
was the most popular movement,
though the Presto. with its fauns
and dryads and wind-swept leaves
in an autumnal swirl, Is one OF the
most vivacious things Beethoven
ever wrote.
The secori part of the program
opened with Strauss musical
whimsy. Till Eulenspiegeis Merry
Franks" a contribution to program
music that can be heard over ana
over again, il is so variable. imagl-
native and descriptive. Just when
it seems almost chaotic. Strauss
blossoms into a bit of harmony, or
a few bars of haunting beauty.
The epiIogue with it's echoes of the
introduction sums up most OF the
charm of the whole thing. and MI.
Coates received many appreciatiVe
recalls after this number. espe-
cially.
The Tschaikowsky Francesca di
Rimini" Fantasy is another bit OF
tone painting. most artistically in
terpreted yesterday. The endless
misery Of souls. swirlinG through
aeons. Francesca's plaintively hone
less tale told mainly by the violins
in lovely minor strains. the strange
ly insistent ending, are all typical
of the great Russian who wrote 1t.
