The return of the Coolidge group
brings with it another Beethoven
string quartet, this time mo. in
D Major, Op. 49," played by William
Kroll and Nicolai Berezowsky, vio-
Inns, Nicholas Moldavan, viola, and
Victor Gottlieb, cello, recorded by
the same company. These players,
after several years of working to-
gether, have attained a uniformity
of tone and finesse of execution
which does justice to the more diff
cult works. This composition is
considered to be Beethoven's first
effort on a new path toward greater
expressiveness, mastered by him in
this particular quartet and adopted
thereafter. Originated while still
under the influence of forms
established by Haydn and Mozart
one feels departures which are
Beethovenesque and show how diff
ferent Beethoven's methods were
from those of his predecessors. He
explores his melodies and rhythmic
possibilities with a spirit and in
genuity which are entirely his own.

take a permanent place sooner or
later in the affection of music

Sibelius' or Cesar Franck's works
Written in modern idiom, the
harmonies of which are not too dis
cordant to the ears, it is clear and
expressive. There Is continuity
of thought which permeates and
binds the movements together with
the brass and woodwinds playing
an important part. The subordi-
nate theme, of beauty and SIM
plicity in the first part, works up to
q crashing climax in the middle of
that movement, most significant
and impressive, suggesting destruc-
