MAYER AND PATTISON
 PROGRAM ANNOUNCED

The program of the concert of Guy Maier and Zee Pattison, who will give recital upon two pianos in the Capitol theater on Sunday afternoon, March 1, under the aus- pices of the New Britain Musical club. was announced today.
 Those who are familiar with musi- cal literature can quickly determine that the two noted opponents of two-piano music have an unusually interesting program to offer in this city. Those who cannot determine the value of program from read ing the names of the selections can rest assured that there have been few programs ever presented here with more variety.
 Much of the music represents adaptations from two-hand. or one- piano, music; but doubling the in- strumental resources naturally adds enormously to the flexibility and pos abilities.
 | Musicians will be greatly interest ed in the Debussy prelude. After noon of a Faun," which in its or- iginal garb Is famous orchestral piece, a masterpiece of impressions istic coloring. How such a complex and colorful number sounds when reduced to the more uniform palette of the keyboard remains to be seen. The final Chahrfer nlIrnher is ana other adaptation from an orches- tral composition that is famous for Its brilliant hues.
 The complete pogram will be as follows: Gavotte and Mrsette ....-.'.-.r.-y Raff Andante and Variations. .Schumann Scherzo, Op. S7 ...... Saint-Saens
