Music
Spier Discusses
Works of Scriobin
And Schoenbero
By Alice Eversmon

La Sale Spier gave another of
his erudite lecture recitals In the
Phillips Gallery last night before
an audience that sought light on
two Of the most discussed of
modern composers. The program
was equally divided between al
study of Scriabin and Schoenberg,
with several of their piano works
played by Mr.. Spier. If it was not
possible to clarity completely the
systems and the aims of these
composers, a general outline was
given that made their musical dis
coyeries more comprehensive.
AS introduction, Mr.. SpierI
sketched briefly the progress of
harmony. He began by citing pas
sageS from "Alice in Wonderland"
as descriptive Of most peoples
feelings about the abrupt de-
partures from the old form that
contemporary music has taken.
He pointed out that it Is but a |
phase of music's progress. The
history of harmony has been a |
story of increasing dissonance and
1t is now necessary to try to find
beauty in this dissonance. The
speaker admitted that most of the
present day writing was mathe-
matical and considered how much
it should reflect the life of this
era or still concern itself with
spiritual values and the beauty of
nature as did that of another
generation. 4
Illustrating on the piano the
augmentation to the scale that
Mozart. Beethoven and Debussy
used, he reached finally the sys-
tenn devised by Scriabin. A short
biography of this composer and
an analysis of his chord forma-
tion was followed by the playing
Of his prelude in B Major, op. 27, |
No. 2" "Poeme, in F Sharp Major,
op. 80, No. /" and his Sonata No.
S. op. 53." In this group of num-
bers. his development was traced
from the Chopin influenced stage
through his first use of the chord
of the ninth with a sharped fifth,
to the full Towering, in the So
nata." of his new formula COM
bined with the tinge of mysticism
that was to beautify his works
thereafter.
The study of Schoenberg was
approached in the same manner.
His employment of tone rows, the
possibilities of his IL tone system,
and the widening of the musical
horizon through these means were
explained. Only one Of the num-
bers played in Illustration, the
"Gavotte" from Suite, op. 25,"
came close to Schoenberg's pres
ent style. The Piece, op. II, No.
2" and the "Six Little Pieces"
from opus 10 are preparatory
works leading the composer to
more definite understanding of
and the arrangement in a more
concise form of his ideas. The
program closed with summary.
