excelled past triumphs In the ex-

by the distinguished French mod.

The piece as described by a re.

an unusual treatment Of synco-
pated rythms, colored with abrupt
stops and polyphonies, defiant of
all conservative codes 0f score,
yet completely musical and
rhythmic.
Metallic gestures surging into
a cascade of eloquence summoned
every spirit OF expression from
the assemblage of players as they
blended climaxes, great crashes
and unusual tonal effects into a
sensation of harmony.
The Beethoven overture to

effectively Interpreted in the con-
