Budapest Groups
Concert Marks
Anniversary
By EIeno de Soyn

The Gertrude Clarke Whlttall
Foundation in the Library of Con-
gress followed q long-established
precedent by presenting special
concert last night. A program to
invited guests was given by the Bu-
dapest String Quartet in observance
of the 210th death anniversary of
Antonio Stradivari, famous Cremona
lutier, who made the instruments
used by the group. The Whittall
collection is supplemented by several
Tourte bows, all Of which were
donated by Mrs. Whittall to the
Library of Congress 10 years ago
and are kept in a specially con-
structed case in the Whittall Pavil-
ion adjoining the auditorium.
Two Beethoven's quartets, &c
sharp minor, op. 131" and "a minor,
op. 1872" made up the program,
which will be repeated for the public
today. 1t is not for the first time
that these works have been played
here by the Budapest group. In
fact, they have done more than any
one else to popularize them, al
though annual cycles Of this masters
quartets have been given by differ
ent organizations when the Coolidge
auditorium was first built score OF
years ago. Technically beyond the.
powers of executants of Beethoven's
day, the works suffered neglect for
a century, until the present day,
when professional quartet playing
has gained an unprecedented i'm
petus. Specialists, to which the
Budapest unit belongs, have dis
PEELED the former belief that these
works are difficult OF comprehension.
Viewed in an intimate light, the
quartets on the program contain
much of the most beautiful music
Beethoven ever wrote. A personal
element enters both works, especial
ly Opus 1872, the Motto Adagio" OF
which is a "song of thanksgiving to
the Deity on recovery from an ILL
ness" A choral-like theme offers
a broad field for cantilena, Of which
the players availed themselves with
their well-known proficiency. The

Motto Cantabile," q beautiful aria
like movement played by the string
trio to the pizzicato accompani-
ment of the cello; also in the "sul
ponticello" measures played in the
altissimo with artistic skill by Mis-
cha Schneider. However, the crown
ing point Of the performance was
the magnificent execution Of the
Presto"

contrasting touches found in the
"Andante' sections Of this move
ment, intended by the composer to
express his regaining strength, could
have been brought out with greater
variety and subtlety Of effects.
On the whole, the rhapsodic ele-
ments of Quartet op. 131" seemed
to suit the style of the players
better than the analytical exigencies
of Opus 1872. The truly Beethoven
esque beginning was marked by a
careful observance of the composer s
love for sforzandi. There were
some lovely tonal effects in the
