BY W. j. HENDERSON.

The New York Trio, consisting of
Scipione Guidi, violin; Cornelius Van
vliet, cello, and Clarence Adler, piano,
gave its first concert Of the present
season in Aeolian Hall last evening.
The program presented Gabriel Pierne's
trio in c minor. opus 4o, and Brahms's
in B>major, opus s. The former work
had its first hearing in this city. 1t
ought TO have q much profounder con-
sideration than it can receive this
morning after a single hearing. for 1t is
a composition demanding close atten-
ton and inviting searching analysis.
Pierne is best known here as the
composer of "The Children's Crusade, y
a cantata OF peculiar charm. He will
probably command more respect in the
future from devotees OF chamber
music because the trio produced last
evening is one Of the finest instru-
mental works that has come out of
France in some years and is a very
important addition to the literature OF
chamber music.
1t seemed at first hearing TO be
developed largely from basic material
introduced in the first movement and
treated in that with intense vigor with
modern idiom leaning strongly toward
chromatic progressions, but rich in in
teresting exfoliations OF both melody
and harmony. together with brilliantly
ingenious writing for all three instru-
ments.
The second movement is an alle-
gretto scherzando OF compelling
beauty. The melodic ideas sound as il
the old medieval folk-song which infiu-
enced Pierne in THE Children's Cru
sade" had again entered his mind. Out
of this subject matter he built n move
ment beginning in bewitching piquancy
of melody and rhythm and rising be-
fore its conclusion to broad passion

NEW YORK TRIO PLAYS NEW
MUSIC OF FRENCH COMPOSER
Gives Superb Performance of Beautiful Piece by
Pierne, Heard Here for First Time

ate lyric song of sweeping beauty.
The moderately slow movements Is
developed in a shor. set of interesting
variations, of which only one-that In
harmonics for the violin-misses Its
designed effect. The finale is brief and
pulsating with emotional eagerness
expressed in genuinely captivating
musical accents. The writing for the
three instruments is admirable. All
have much to say, though naturally
the piano is called upon to deliver the
most brilliant utterances. But 1t never
~obscures the Importance of the other
two instruments.
The performance of the compost
ton was superb. 1t is not work to
be approached carelessly, and the three
musicians of the New York Trio had
plainly put their hearts into their re-
hearsals. They played con dmore. and
they deserve the gratitude OF all music
lovers for having brought to notice
such splendid demonstration of the
mastership Of NJ. Pierne. The audi
ence appeared to recognize the worth
of the work and its presentation.
Ashley Pettis I'm Recital.
Ashley Pettis. pianist, gave recital
yesterday afternoon In Aeolian Hall.
He contributed his item to the Schu-
mann revival by performing the
"Davidsbuendler Taenze," which had
not been heard in sthe course Of the
season, nor, indeed, for a considerable
time He played also the Brahms
rhapsody, opus 70, No. 1; some Cho
pin, his own Mirror" and the'prelude,
choral and fugue of Cesar Franck.
Mr.. Pettis proved to be a pianist Of
normal tendencies. His tone was
pleasing to the ear and respectful to
the piano. his finger tecllnic fluent and
clear and his performances generally
imbued with musicianly taste and un-
derstanding. His pedaling was at
times productive of cloudy effects, but
on the whole he made a very favorable
impression.
