poetic sentiment. In the buoyant
finale, the artists speciality Of bril-
liant exposition had full play.
The recital opened with Beetho-
ven's "Kreutzer Sonata" which was

By ALICE EyERsMAN.

The many admirers of Fritz Kreis-
Ter again turned out in force for his
recital yesterday afternoon at Con-
stitution Hall but even with the cou-
pie OF hundred extra seats on the
stage not all could be accommo-
dated. The dean of violinists, as
sisted as usual by Carl Lamson at
the piano, was in the best of form
playing with vigor and abandon and
with seemingly as much enjoyment
as his audience evidenced in listen
ing to him. For both, the climax
was reached in the final group
where shorter numbers were played
with elimination of the interpre-
tive skill, of the artist.
1t is true that Kreisler has evolved
style that is as unmistakable as
trade mark yet 1t Is SO individual
that no other violinist has been able
to initiate it. The favorite pieces
of Kreisler's repertoire and his ar
rangement are now on every violin
lists program but even when played
with the same infections they are
not the same. The dash, the accent,
the rhythm and the lovely turn of
phrase cannot be duplicated.
To analyze wherein lies the
uniqueness of Kreislers art would be
difficult for in matters of tone tech
nique and musical knowledge he has
equals among several of the younger
violinists. 1t is more the breadth of
his vision, the type of his intellect
and the value he has put upon his
life experiences that are reflected in
his music. There is warmth and
penetration in his playing that goes
deeper than musical understanding
or temperament.
No finer example of the step fur
ther that Kreisler makes in his ap-
proach could be cited than the per-
formance of the Mozart Concerto
No. 3 in G Major" Everything in the
way of delicacy and style that be-
longs to Mozart was there but in
more vibrant and poetic reading
that reached a depth many ignore
in interpreting this master. AL
though written when the composer
was not yet 20 years old and at

OF the latter, Miss Schultz pre-

cini's "Tosca," "Chacun lie Salt"
from Donizetti's la File du Regi-

Verdi's 'Rigoletto" in finished style.
OF the three songs heard, Saint
Saens' "The Nightingale and the
Rose" displayed the finest execution
although in Faure's LES Roses

sang Hue's "A des Oiseaux" with
delicate brilliancy.
