"CorioIanus Overture

The "CoriolanuS Overture" the
principa! theme of which is
shown above, is a music deScrip-
ton of a character that possessed
many of the traits of the COM
poser Beethoven. Coriolanus, an
ancient Roman of untamable
force. restless and proud, ap-
pealed powerfully to the magma
ton of Beethoven.
Gaius Mare Is Coriolanus was
so named because he captured
Corioli, the ,apital city of the
Volsci. In the height Of his
glor. l.. Rome. tried Vainly
to abolish the tribmeship and
was exiled. In a spirit of revenge,
COriolanus joined forces with the
VOlsci and marched to the very
walls of Rome. The Romans in q
panic asked for peace terms, but
his naughty spirit would not give
in.
Finally the Romans sent Corio-
lanuS' mother, wife and children
to plead with him to spare Rome.
His love OF family conquered and
he withdrew his forces, an act
that later cost him his life but
saved him from the monster
revenge.
The overture was composed to
the drama by the German poet,
II. j. Won Collin. The only passage
of the story that is Illustrated in
the overture is the alliance with
the Volsci, the pleading of his fam
lily, his abandonment of the VolSci
and his tragic death.
The theme is indicative of the
heroic character of Coriolanus and
the spirit of unrest that possessed
him. There are two lesser themes.
The development of the themes
lead to an intensely passionate
and dramatic Coda which is de.
scriptive of Coriolanus' death.
The three soft notes at the end
picture the last pulSations Of the
dying hero. The music is charac-
terized by raging power. nobility
and pathetic beauty.

Theme From "Coriolonus Overture" by Beethoven

Many Washington music-loverS
that have been Intending the
Sunset Symphonies" are still
voicing their expressions Of sur
prise that the concert was given
Wednesday night with such
threatening weather.
AS this is the first time
weather has interfered with a
concert, the majority looked for
a poStponement to last night.
The Sylvan Theater programs
have been postponed with less
threat of rain, but it must be re-
membered that the Sylvan Thea
ter, with grass under foot, is more
moist in damp weather than the
Watergate, with its concrete and
stone footing.
Also there is more at stake in
deferring symphony concert,
especially Wednesday night, when
the guest conductor was scheduled
to appear on the following night
in New York city as piano SoloiSt
with the N. B. c. Symphony Or
cheStra. The Wednesday evening
radio announcements stated
plainly that the concert would be
given if it was not raining at 8
o'clock.
BMle Marx, conductor of the
Rio de Janeiro Philharmonic Or
cheStra, will ~ the guest conduc-
tor of the National Symphony Or
cheStra Sunday night at the
Watergate concert. He has Sc
lected works from both Latin
America and North America for
his first program.
The program will also feature
a two piano team, Jeanne Beh-
rend and Alexander Kelberine,
playing the Deldom heard j. s.

and String Orchestra" The con
cert will open with the dramatic
