Review of Recordings

them. The music is on grandiose
scale yet full of subtleties and deep
with emotion. One of the most out
standing bits is the tremendous
violin passages which depicts
dialogue between the hero and his
beloved. Played by the concert mas
ter of the Philadelphia Orchestra,
it is tone poem in itself of chang
ing moods calling upon ali the
virtuoso qualities Of the performer.
Completing this trilogy of unusual
works is the Pizzetti sonata which
the two Menuhins interprete with
rare feeling. The sonata, rather
simply devised on the whole, has a
very poignant quality throughout,
the violin having such moving pas
sages as singer might express and
Yehudi Menuhin plays them with
the same interpretive feeling that
one might bring if given text to
direct him. One could search far
and wide and not find more beau
tiful bit OF writing than the second
movement which is entitled Pre-
ghiera per gl'innocenti." Castelnu-
ovo-Tedesco says of it: 1T is not only
a sublime page of music, but a
veritable gospel of charity" The
whole sonata is of gripping char
acter beautifully written in the
warm, clear style of Pizzetti. 1t was
composed in 1918 and therein may
lie the reason for the choice OF the
opening measures of the second
movement which are set to the
words 20 our Lord, have pity upon
all the innocents who do not know
why they must suffer"

Symphony
Selections
Are Made
French Composer
Offers Feature
For Concert

Although the National Symphony
Orchestra is in the midst of the
first major tour of its ninth season.
it is giving concert in Springfield,
Mass, today-before it entrained
last Monday morning Conductor
Hans Kinder took time off to note
a few of the high lights he has
scheduled for the Washington con-
certs Immediately following the or
chestra's return.
The next concert to be played in
Constitution Hall will be given Sun
day afternoon, January 7. For it
DR.. Kinder has scheduled one of the
seasons most important novelties
the first Washington performance of
Les Offrandes Oubliees," by the
brilliant young French composer,
Olivier Messiaen. Messiaen. who was
boln in Avignon as recently as De-
cember 10, 1908, is one of the more
interesting of contemporary COM
posers. He belongs to that school
which in the artistic world corre-
spends to what in the political would
be called "royalist," or at least
"rightist." His colleagues and he
have turned resolutely away from
the manifestations of contemporary
life and have embraced passionately
the religious. Because of this strong
characteristic of Catholic mysticism,
Messiaen's compositions suggest a
continuation of the tradition of
Franck and Vincent d'Indy.
Just how strong Franck's inf1u-
ence is on Messiaen can be judged
by National Symphony patrons,
since the masters symphonic
Variations" is included on the same
program. The solo portion of this
work will be played by the dis
tinguished Belgian pianist, Marcel
Mas. who was first heard here a
year ago in series of sonata re-
citals with Alfred Dubois. Belgian
violinist. Mas, considered to be one
of the outstanding interpreters of
Bach, will also play with the or
chestra the Bach ID Minor Con-
certo"
Following it's concert in SPRING
field this afternoon, the National
Symphony Orchestra will play in
Fall River, Mass, tomorrow night;
on Tuesday it will give two concerts
in Hartford, Gonna students con-
cert in the afternoon and regular
concert at night; on Wednesday it
will play in Kingston, N Y, and on
Thursday it will close the present
tour with concert at Binghamton,
N. Y. With the tour completed, the
orchestra will take two weeks
Christmas vacation.
For the next Washington concerts
tickets are on sale at the symphony
box Office in the Homer L. Kilt
Music Store, 1880 G street NV.

By Alice Eversman.

The Victor company has aban-
doned the classics this month in its
principal recordings and given its
best attention to the moderns, with
a special novelty in the form OF
Paderewskis "Concerto in A Minor,
op. IT," Other gigantic works now
prepared for the public are Strauss
tone poem Elm Heldenleben" and
Pizzettis Sonata in A. for violin
and piano played by Yehudi and
Hepzibah Menuhin. The Strauss
tone poem is recorded by the Phila-
cielphia Orchestra, conducted by
Eugene Ormandy.
The releasing of Paderewski's
concerto is a gesture that will be
appreciated by many, irrespective OF
their interest in the concerto itself.
To the glamour that surrounded
him during the heighth of his pub
lie career, PadereWski has added a
long and noble record as patriot
in his country's time of trouble, and
his recent valiant effort to earn
money to free himself from a debt
not of his making and his i'll health
that put an end to his endeavOr has
won a special sympathy for him.
Old and broken, he is still as ro-
mantle a figure as in the days when
his brilliant piano virtuosity, his
classic features and wonderful hair
stirred the Nation to enthusiasm.
In listening to the concerto one
wonders why it is not included in
recitalists' programs, for it has all
the qualities that are highly effec-
tive in the proper hands. Jesus
Marie Sanroma, who plays it in the
recording, is indeed the proper artist
to give it the fire, the poetry and
the artistry that it requires. Natur-
ally, it would be ideally pianistic, but
it has substance as well as external
brilliancy and this extends to the
orchestra writing also. In fact, it
is the kind of music that lifts the
spirit and gives it something to have
d1Iu W llOlQ. 1 IlC CAQuloltCly 1OVCAy
second movement is rare bit of
inspiration f1anked by fiery first
and gay, dazzling third movement.
Paderewski played this concerto
at his American debut November II,
1891, in New York, having begun
to write it two years earlier. He
himself says: II wrote it in very
short time" and it is clearly to
be heard that the music flowed
forth with a real and deep inspir-
alton.
Elm Heldenleben" is given a re-
markable reading by the Philadel-
phia Orchestra, one that is vital and
thoroughly descriptive Of the theme.
1t has generally been regarded as
the life story of Strauss himself, al
though more in the way of emo
tional and spiritual experiences than
actual facts. The life of an ideal
man is here pictured in music, his
problems and his Joys and sufferings
and the way he meets and solves

Kreisler and Jaromir Weinberger
and Jerome Kern tying for the last
honors. Sibelius received a third of
all the votes cast, and two and q
half times as many as Strauss.
Today an announcement will be
made during the Metropolitan
Opera Additions of the Air radio
time by Mrs. August Belmont of
the formation of scholarship fund
by the Opera Guild to assist the au-
dition winners in further study.
Since languages, stage department,
and even dancing are so closely
bound up with operate training,
this fund will serve to help develop
the chosen singers in these branches
The cost of perfecting a young
artist in the various additional sub
jectS necessary for operate work Is
considerable and many have been
unable to meet the extra expendi-
ture. They must have more than q
pronouncing knowledge of languages
and learn freedom and grace in
moving around the stage, a lack of
which might easily reflect on their
vocal success. The guild, which
has now a membership of 10000
in New York City alone, has done
a great deal toward placing young
American talent at the Metropolitan,
and with this scholarship will fur
ther aid them to retain and polish
the gift that first won them their
engagement. The choice of artists
and the type of extra study they
should pursue will be left to the
decision of Edward johnson, gen.
eral manager Of the company.

While speaking of opera. word has
come from the press division OF the
Victor Company that the Victor
Puppet Opera Troupe will be in
Washington from January % to
February 3. This Puppet Opera is
making winter tour of the country
under the direction of Ernest Wolff.
The miniature opera was first seen
at the New York Worlds Fair and,
in response to over $4,000 letters
from all over the country, the tour
was planned.
There are over 200 singing and
dancing puppets in the cast who
perform on a 48-square foot stage, a
model of the Metropolitan. The
puppets are stringless, operated from
beneath the stage, and appear in
repertoire that includes Aida"
Carmen" Faust" "Rigoletto." La
Traviata," "I Pagliacci" and "Caval-
leria Rusticana" The music is sup
piled by the R. c. A-Victor Musical
Masterpieces, with puppet orchestra
playing in the pit, while the puppet
singers movements have been syn
chronized with the recordings.
The costumes, some 300 in number,
are replicas of those worn by the
Metropolitan Opera stars, while the
stage properties consist of period
furniture, spinning wheels, fire.
places, chandeliers, donkey carts,
silverware and jewel boxes, all max
ing one of the finest collections of
miniatures in the country. The
whole idea sounds fascinating and
it is to be hoped that the dates, ten
tatively announced as yet, will really
see the performance of opera in
miniature form in this city.
