Orrnandy Has
Menuhin as
SOlOist
Philadelphia Group
To Appear in
ChOrales

When Eugene Ormandy conducts
the third of the seasons series of
programs in Washington by the
Philadelphia Orchestra Tuesday,
January 2, at 8:45 pm at Constitu-
ton Hall, he will present the bril-
liant American violinist, Yehudi
Menuhin, in the Brahms concerto,
and also introduce some ballet music
new to Washington music lovers.
This music is from a ballet en-
titled THE Machine Man" and
comes from the pen of Eugene Ia
dor. who, like Mr.. Ormandy, is Hun
garian-born and of the generation
following such colorful Hungarian
composers as Dohnanyi Bartok and
Kodaly.
Born in Bateszek in 1894, Mr..
Zador wrote his first song when
7 and his first poem for piano when
ii years old. This latter work he
called THE Last Battle" and he
recalls it as work he considered to
be truly grand-at the time. He
was q when he was graduated from
Ollt ACdUcIly VI MuSlC III VleIllld,
where he specialized in composition.
Later, he studied in Leipzig with
Max Roger. His compositions in
clude more than 100 pieces for piano,
$50 songs, 13 operas and symphonic
and chamber works. His later COM
positions have been written in
America.
Mr. Menuhin recently appeared in
recital in Carnegie Hall, New York,
where, according to the press, he
had his usual capacity audience and
played a most taxing program. The
program of the orchestra will open
with two of the Bach chorale tram
scriptions by Ormandy, which he
completed last summer and which,
like the Zador work, will be first
times in Washington Ravel's
'Daphnis ct Chloe Suite No. 2" and
Afternoon of Faun" will conclude
the program.
Reservations can be made at Jor-
dams boxofice, 1899 G street NV.

By ALICE EVERSMAN.

The inexhaustible quality of Mo-
zart's genius and the unfailing we'll
of ideas that was his is again a
source of marvel in listening to the
symphony No 36 in c Major. K.
425," otherwise known as the Linz"
Symphony, which is on the Co.
lumbia's list this month. 1t is
played by the London Philharmonic
Orchestra, conducted by Sir Thorn
as Beecham.
The symphony was written wnen
Mozart and his wife, Constance,
stopped at Linz to pay a short visit
to Count Thun. The count was
having a private concert shortly and
asked Mozart to write symphony
for it. There was not much time.
about a week, in fact, but this did
not deter the man whose brain was
teeming with musical ideas, and he
had it finished the day before the
concert.
1t is interesting to note how Mo-
zart's music reflects his thought
even when he tried to escape the
burden of his worries and sorrows by
resource to specially gay mood.
He had been happily married for
about year, yet his fathers re-
fusal to be reconciled to that mar
riage completely could not help but
cast a shadow over his content
ment. At any rate, the Linz" SYM
phony has a decidedly mature note
in it and a soberness of spirit only
rarely to be found in his music
This is not the product of gay
genial young man who could offset
his troubles by dancing rhythms
and iight-hearted melody. but a
man of responsibility who thinks
and feels deeply.
The opening measures of the first
movement already notify one of the
change. and the second, in its dig.

A cablegram from England. Just

chestra's next concert on the mid

ranging this substitution were ex-
pedited in every way so that the
definite announcement that Miss
Novaes will play with the National
Symphony Orchestra can now be
made.

Review of Recordings

of the theme against strangely
penetrating accompaniment Of the
other instruments. The mood is
quickly dissipated with the swift,
gay tempo of the last movement,
which never attains that special
free flow of inspiration that the
second has. 1t is one OF the best
works that this American composer
has put out, and the Dorian Quar-
tet has the proper skill to express it
effectively.
Among the Victor Musical Mas
terpieces is volume of songs by
Hulda Lashanska, soprano, with
Elsa Fielder at the piano. This very
fine interpreter of German lieder
has made a splendid, artistic con-
tribution in this particular field of
recording. She has chosen the
lovellest examples of the lieder COM
posers and here reproduced then

"Auf dem Kirchhofe" and Die
Mainacht,' Schubert's can die Mu-

Meme Seele and VOLTS "Verbor-
genheit" and "Das Verlassene
Maegdlein These songs are not
heard much these days. and every
singer should welcome this oppor-
tunity to hear them given the best
possible presentation.
Adding to the Chopin albums
that have recently been released by
the two companies, the Columbia
people now issue a set of Chopin
waltzes played by Edward Kilenyi
who is becoming very we'll known
as a Chopin interpreter. The II
waltzes in this album are repre-
sentative of the best work Chopin
has done in what might be called q
lighter vein. At least they are not
all imbued with his deep sadness
even if sometimes melancholy
note creeps into their gay measures
Some of them are posthumous, CIV
en- to the world by Fontana YET
composed within the years 1929 tt
1843, just six years before Chopin

One will find here the delightful
F. major, op. "a, inspired by Chopin's
cat running across the piano keys
and its counterpart. the D fiat, op
81, that grew out of George Sands
suggestion that her dogs chasing hi:
tail be set to music. There are the
gay waltzes in E fiat, op. ID, the
G fiat of op. 10, the melancholy
B minor. op. So, and C SHARP
minor, op 64, the beloved E minor
and the charming A fiat of op
