young Polish violinist, who last sea-
son chose Washington and the Ma
tional Symphony as mediums for his
professional debut in this country.
The young violinist has made wide
strides forward in maturity and poise.
He Is gifted with every essential to
make an outstanding artist, and Is on
his way to recognition as such. His
tone Is beautiful and warm and his
technique 30 sure and frm that he Is
at all times master Of the difficult pas
sage work. Yesterday he was heard
in Tschaikowsky's Concerto In D
Major" which, temperamentally. was
ideally suited to him.
His legato is by far the best Of any
Of the violinists today, and the full,
long, drawn phrasing Of the first part
Of the allegro moderate and through
out the "Canzonetta" was unusually
fine. BY reason Of this these two
movements took on another meaning
and the story which they tell so elo-
quently became deeply poignant. The
brilliant passages interspersed here
and there and constituting the entire
third movement were given in rip
pling fashion, with excellent intona-
ton and dashing effect. All in all, it
was performance highly satisfying
artistically and emotionally, and the
artist was recalled time and again
by an audience. many Of which, hav-
ing heard him at his debut, will look
forward to still finer things from him
in his assured career.
The orchestra, with some tricky
work In front Of it, showed its readi-
ness by a stirring performance Of the
delightful overture to Glinka's Russ
Ian and Ludmili" Particularly ap-
propriate was the selection of this
opera excerpt and those from Boris
Godounov" as the text Of both
operas were founded on writings by
the great Russian poet. Poushkin,
whose Tooth birth anniversary will
be celebrated throughout America be-
ginning on January 20 in Washington.
the birth date, according to the old
calendar.
From the older period Of Russian
music there followed three dances
from Tschaikowsky's THE Nutcracker
Suite" and excerpts from Moussorg-
sky's Boris Godounov" in the colorful
arrangement made two years ago by
DR.. Kinder. These numbers ran the
gamut Of all the wealth Of fantasy
inherent In the Russian temperament
and the opulence. grandeur and power
Of czardom. The orchestra played
each with the spirit or sorority neces-
sary, to the great delight Of the
public.
But contrasting in marked manner
was Prokofief's 1.-THE Love Of the
Three Oranges" the great pianist and

composer Of the modern Russian
regime. In spite of all the modern
touches which characterize the work,
Prokofieff did not abandon the inspira-
ton to be found in the unique art
tendencies which had also inspired his
predecessors. The composition not
only Is highly interesting, but it car
ries an undercurrent Of poetic fancy.
It wears the modish, severe garb Of
modernism, far from the velvet and
ermine Of Moussorgsky, yet under
meath Is genius Of idea as expressed
In the Scene Infernale," romance
Of the most idyllic character in "Le
Prince ct Ia Princess" and originality
Of invention in the 'Marche" and
"Scherzo."
The three excerpts make enormous
demands on the orchestra's ability and
the performance yesterday was so ex-
cellently done as to be the high light
Of the program. In spite Of the
hardness Of modern harmony and the
introduction of new tonal effects, the
work is one Of great richness, imagina-
ton and superb musicianship. Its re-

will want back in a hurry, at least,
the first-show audience will. A master
stylist that can "sell" her numbers to
the well-known nth degree, she comes
dangerously close to pilfering Queen
AIMS plaudits.
Comedy, too. Is provided In abun-
dance; Make Furman and Harry Con-
nelly see to that-a talented pair who
click on every appearance with Fur
man getting an extra hand for some
neat dancing bits. Boyd Heatherly
and Eddie Innes render able straight
service, the latter adding a touch Of
mimicry, while Lew Brown takes care
OF song on the male side. The ex-
tensive cast includes also Bebe Sher-
man, husky-voiced songstress Of the
Sophie Tucker school; Hilda Allison,
dancing with the ensemble; Alma Mai
ben, with speciality and scene work;
Kay johnson, assisting the comics,
and Paul Miller in tapping, harmonica
and spoon" items. &C. A. M,

All the way through this tale Of the
servant girl who became a star and
then husband-shooter and then woke
up, this sense for the correct grade Of
satire or burlesque most apt to the
moment keeps humor at q high pitch.
And through it all the mood Of wit
Miss Schoop is creating Is aided by a
deft piano accompaniment, written by
Paul Schoop and played by Mr.. Schoop
and Lotf1ar Perl.
Miss Schoop's associates include
Meta Krahn, who has almost unbe-
lievable muscular control: Edith
Karola, Marin Raae, Otto Ulbricht
and q number Of others who are ex-
tremely capable. There are a lot more
things that could be said about Trudi
Schoop and her gay Comic Ballet.
The best thing, though, is the advice
that you do not let an empty chair
represent you the next time she comes
to town. H. M.
