In Violent
Recital
BY CHARLES GENTRY

MAKING his first recital ap
pearance here. the young Polisf
pianist Witold MalcuZynSki, who
played with the Detroit Symphony
Aearlier in the season, returned Il
give a concert last night in Music
Hall.
We were prepared TO like
MalcuzynSki better as a recitalisi
than as a solist with an orchestra
especially after his opening selec.
tion, the Cesar Franck Prelude
Choral and Fugue, which he
played beautifully.
But we we're soon disillusioned
He chose for his second Offering
the Beethoven Sonata, Opus So
the "Appasionata' which he sub
lected to MISUNDERSTANDING vio-
lence.
AN ONSLAUGHT
II wasn't his attack, il was his
onslaught that threw US, and
while he obviously reveals many
OF the bravura qualities of his
famous teacher, the late Paderew-
ski. his is more youthful impetu-
osity than mature and seasoned
force. The second movement was
the most intelligently performed
but the first and third were deaf
ening.
Also he snorts like Schnabel, so
that If you sat as close as we did,
you got your Beethoven with
slight catarrhal overtoneS.
This heavy breathing abated a
little for the three MaZurkas by
the modern Polish composer
Szymanowski. which opened the
second half of the program, but
resumed in full force for the same
composers intricate theme and
difficult variations whiCtT followed
SMASHING FINALE
The best Of the Chopin group
were the F-sharp major Waltz,
in which Mr.. Malcuzynski relaxed
his left fist a bit. and in the
Mazurka and encore, the C-sharp-
minor Waltz.
But 10 bring the program to a
smashing finale. he made a tour
hie force out OF that intcrminable
Ind repetitiouS b fiat minor
ScherZo so that we were amazed
10 find the Steinway standing all
in one piece when he was finally
through.
The yetfng man is undoubtedly
gifted, technically and physically,
but he should learn 10 play with
some restraint and 10 select con-
cert numbers which are more
fitted 10 his talents.
