when Ignace Jan Paderewski,
world-famouS Polish pianist and

N. Y. Orchestra

The program Of the next New
York Philharmonic Symphony Or
chestra concert in washington,
on Tuesday afternoon at 4:30 in
Constitution Hall, promises to be
an unusually interesting one:
Prokokieff-Suite from "Prodigal
Son.; Strauss, Richard-"Don
juan; Brahms symphony No.
2 in D major"
It is predominantly modern in
feeling. An international musical
furore centered around Proko-
kieff's "Prodigal Son" when the
ballet was first produced in Paris
in 1929. Modern as it was, still
it was much more understand
able than the composers earlier
works.
The rest of the program makes
nice balance against this con-
temporary Richard Strauss, one
of the earliest innovators of the
new idiom, wrote Don Juan"
when only "a years old.
Brahms Second Symphony"
hardly needs introduction to
Washington. 1t is the most
charming of his symphonic works,
the lightest and most tuneful, in
contrast to the heavy tragic first.
