hear three Russian works written
within the past five scores of years.
Two of these-Borodin's Quartet in

in A Minor"-not having as yet found
their way into the repertory of WELL
known string quartet organizations,
remain practically unknown.
The first measures Of Glazounov's
work were sufficient to reveal his
superior craftsmanship and his In
innate knowledge of the resources at
hand for which ne was famed. Rich
ness of sound, an easy flow Of melody,
combined with an exquisite sense of
proportion and form. made his work
the most outstanding of the three.
1t was In the "Scherzo" that Mr..
Krolls virtuosity had full play. The
brilliancy OF his execution called forth
unrestrained and enthusiastic applause
which broke the customary silence
between the movements. 1t was in this
work particularly that the lovely tone
