'Stradivari's Death
Is Conmemoratedb by
Budapest Quartet
By ELENA de SAYN

The annual COMMUNICATION of
Stradivari's death, the man who
fashioned the famous instruments
used by the Budapest Quartet In
their series OF concerts at the Lii
brary Of Congress, was observed last
night again under the auspices of
the Gertrude Clarke Whittall Foun-
dation.
The celebrated group of players
Programmed two works eminently
hitting for the occasion: Beethoven's
Quartet in G sharp minor, op. 49,"
and Schubert's Quintet in M major,
op. 163," for two oviolins, viola and
two cellos, composed within two
years Of one another, renown for
their lofty character, and for being
the last from the pen Of these great
men.
It was in Beethoven's work that
the Budapest Quartet did its finest
playing, Difdcult to interpret be-
cause Of its complete detachment
from the material world, not unlike
an abstract meditation in regions
open only to the vision Of such spir-
itual giants as was Beethoven, the
Quartet in c sharp minor" is re-
garded as being the greatest of its
kind. The seven movements of the
work, closely knit together and
played without, a pause, are given
q short introduction by the violin.
Colored by the glowing tone of the
performers in sustained passages, the
austerity Of the subject is broken
really only once by the exquisite
and fantastic presto" in which the
artists could give rein to their tech
niacl accomplishment.
Although the assistance Of Benar
Heifetz, cellist, lent greater sorority
to the ensemble in the quintet, the
execution OF the latter, taken as q
whole, did not have the roundness
Of contours or the polish fol
which Beethoven's work was pre-
eminently satisfying. The intonation
of the violins in high register was
not always true, especially notice
able at the extreme end Of the audi
torium.
