Raya Garbousova Wins
Ovation at Symphony

over the star spot at the third
Thursday evening subscription
concert by the Detroit Symphony
Orchestra in Masonic Auditorium
last night.
La Garbousova is not only the
greatest living woman 'celliSt, but
she also makes a lovely vision on
the concert stage. She plays with
such grace that she defies you
ever again TO describe the violin
cello as an unwieldy instrument
and her dramatic charm is as
potent as her virtuoSity.
She is one OF the rare artists
whose playing and appearance can
both be called beautiful
She made two appearances on
last nights program, playing in
the first half the delicate, but
difficult. Boccherini B-flat Con-
certo, which she dealt with great
facility.
While il is not, perhaps. a
major work. it is a delightful re-
lief from the usual limited offer
ings, the Saint-Saens, the Haydn
and the Dvorak TO which most
'celliStS are limited.

them last night.
