cations Of this great pianist. How
seldom do both gifts rise, in a single
person, to quite equal heights. Then
there's humanity beneath the chosen
works Of the greatest of composers,
Beethoven, whose centenary we
celebrate at this moment.
The first concerto of the great
Russian was written in his student
days at Moscow and was played
there by the composer when he was
18 years old. The second concerto
was composed In 1900 and performed;
for the first time with the composer
as pianist at a concert Of the Mos.

prize of 500 roubIes. The third con-
certo was written in 1902 and per.
formed on November OF that year
by the composer at concert Of the
Symphony Society OF New York.
The two Beethoven w6rK are
sharply contrasted, the overture be-
ing portrayal of a popular hero
Of medieval times. written in ma
jestic and noble vein.
The symphony holds an amusing
incident within the we'll known

principal theme was extemporized
by Beethoven, as a short vocal
canon, at a farewell supper given
to Mabel, inventor Of the metro.

Quite one OF the most memorable
"tunes" of Beethoven, it brings

MARTINELLI OF MET" AND
VITAPHONE FAME COMING

Unless all signs fail, Giovanni
Martinelli, of the Metropolitan
Grand Opera Company, who will
appear here with Rosa Ponselle,
Jeanne Gordon and others in "Il
Trovatore" during the Met" season
at the Auditorium next month. is
scheduled to become a concert star
of the first rank within the next
yearaor so.
Few opera singers have been
brought SO prominently before the
American public at large in any
one season as has MartinelIi during
the first few months Of 1927. Quite
aside from Martinelli's opera
triumphs in New York, the great
italian has reaped wealth Of
prestige from sources that only
recently have come into existence
to enhance a singers fame.
For example, Martinelli was one
OF the first singers chosen to sing
for that revolutionary new device,
the Vitaphone, with all the public.

In photoplay theaterS. Recently,
Martinelli's voice was broadcast to
millions as the principal singer Of

politan.
Assuming that the great Italian
tenor scores a triumph with the
Metropolitan Opera during his APP

chance that Martinelli will be added
to the list OF concert stars who
annually charm Washington au.
