an abandon that rose to a supreme
height in the dashing finale. A
storm Of applause broke the tension
of the audience, which delighted in
giving the artist this ovation.
The orchestra supported him with
finely adjusted feeling throughout,
taking advantage Of every tutti to
allow its sorority to ring forth. The
first part of the program was ex-
clusively orchestral with two of the
three numbers being rendered for the
first time in this city. The overture
to Barlow's opera, Mon Ami Pierrot, ="
the premiere of which was held in
Paris two years ago is a charming
number, fresh and gay with sufficient
contrast to make it interesting.
Novelty BY Kodaly.
The second novelty was Kodaly's
Dances of Galanta." The composer,
a compatriot of Mr.. Szigeti, has done
a great service to his country in COL
lecting its musical folk lore and the
dances" are part of his discoveries.

in Gilbert Gbrettist whose work was
perfectly suited to the mood of the
music. Neither the words nor the
music will live without the other"
Mr.. Godfrey has been close enough
to the subject to know whereof he
speaks, so that should be the answer.
The Savoyard conductor was a bit
reluctant at first to name favorite
among The operas. He likes them
all. He did admit finally, though.
that he liked "Yoemen of the Guard"
best Of all It's the closest to tech
nical perfection, as far as music
goes, and is the item in the Savoyard
repertoire most favored by musicians.
The Mikado," he says, Is of course
the favorite with most audiences. It's
played by clubs and small groups in
England the same way it is played
by high school and other drama clubs
here. 1T practically plays ITSELF"
Godfrey says
X X X
A MOTHER reason for its popularity
with D'Oyly Carte audiences, &C
cording to Godfrey'S way of thinking,
is that it is most familiar to them.
The Savoyard fans like to see some
thing they know well. something they
can watch and anticipate every word
and gesture.
The other operas, "Yoeman of the
Guard" and Princess Ida," for in
stance, would be increasingly we'll
liked the more familiar they become,
according to Godfrey.
The most difficult task of Godfrey's S
career, since he took over the con-
ducting reins in 1929, has been the
conducting at Sadler's Wells, where
the troupe played last season in Lon
don. It's a fine theater. he says, for
everybody but the conductor.
The pit is low and the stage high,
whereby a job of work fell upon God
frey's shoulders. He had TO lean
down and lead the orchestra with one
hand and reach up with the other to
lead the choral groups. And if he
had permitted the orchestra to play
loud enough to be heard by the players
on the stage, the music. would have
! drowned out the voices for the audi
ence.
1t was a neat bit Of coordination he
had to do.
Godfrey, incidentally. almost did not
get to conduct for the D'Oyly Carte
troupe a couple of years ago when
they last came to this country. The
New York Musicians Union didn't
want TO admit him, felt it had plenty
of people who could play Gilbert and
Sullivan music.
He got in. though. with little trou-
BILE. Just showed the union lads the
score of the music that had to be
played for the Savoyards.

Abel, II don't understand why VIOLIN
lists make such a fuss over the pas
sages in my concerto. They are worse
than pianists. The passages are all
playable. Why are they not more con-
cerned with the tonal effects? They
are so absorbed with the technique
that they overlook euphony. Very few
of them make the first movement and
the finale sound well and that Is why
I can't hear any of the younger vio-
linists play it any more. 1t boreS me
to death when the young flddlers come
to me and ask permission to play my
concerto for me-"
Last evenings performance would
surely have pleased the composer. The
technical difficulties had no terrors for
Mr.. Szigeti and in the lyric measures
of the adagio he put all his fine mu-
steal feeling and knowledge. But one
was, for the first time. conscious OF the
limitations of the instrument itself
and that Brahms musical way OF
thinking required an instrument capa-
bic of double the possibilities OF the

he has taxed the players powers to
the utmost, writing passages and an
idea demanding the interpretive art OF
q super musician.
Superb Technician.
Mr.. Szigeti's technical accoutrement
is superbly equal to the exigencies OF
the work. His left hand alone Is
ideally suited to the taxing effort de-
manded of it, while his bow arm has
the nervous strength that brought
bitingly clear chords and swiftly
struck octaves from the strings with
lightning speed. He had no need to
slow up the tempo to fit his ability
and. in the third movement, he set
the pace according to the composers
instructions and played the intricate
passages with brilliant transparency
and fire.
There were patrician qualities in the
first movement, particularly in his
playing of the Joachim cadenza, ad-
mirably written with clarity OF style.
The structural symmetry Of the adagio
was finely delineated although Mr..
Szigeti's tones lack somewhat the
luscious warmth that one envsions
for these beautiful melodic phrases.
His concentration and seriousness were
felt throughout, while he played with

stantly changing harmonies and
rhythm is colorful in the extreme and
to this national formula, Mr.. Kodaly
has added modern tinge rich in
imaginativeness and originality. The
spirit Of the dances is not easy to
capture and the orchestra will be more
successful in this respect with re-
peated performances. DR.. Kinder
and his men were given unanimous
acclamation at the end for their ex-
cellent reading and were forced to bow
many times in acknowledgment.
One of the loveliest numbers that
Dr. Kinder has made known to his
public is Arensky's Variations on a
