Earl Wild Again Scores success
As National Symphony SoIoist

jor." concluding the program with
Beethoven's Symphony No. g."
This was the first time the
Rachmaninoff Rhapsody" had
been introduced into a National
Symphony program in Constitu-
ton Hall. It was played, how
ever, by the same group with Eve
lyn Swarthout as soloist six years
ago at the Watergate and twice
by the Philadelphia Orchestra,
once with Rubinstein as soloist
and again with William Kapell.
1t is bravura work calling upon
all the technical and interpretive
resources of the soloist. Since it
was written as a number for the
composers appearance with the
Philadelphia Orchestra as piano
soloist, 1t has a complete Rach-
maninof flavor, scintillating pas
sages alternating with purest
melody.
1t contains. however, a wealth
OF opportunity for tone coloring.
Mr.. Wild, for all his superb techni-
cal mastery, has not the gift for
seizing the occasions when nuances
give the final delicate finish to
"a work. His tone has a brisk.
fortnight quality and his ap-
.proach to music Is something on
the same order.
The "a short variations that
make up the Rhapsody" are be-
sprinkled with fantasy. Their in
genuity of construction alone
stimulates the performers artistry.
Mr.. Wild played them brilliantly
and with loud tone but without
extracting much more than their
surface intentions. But the ease
OF his mastery of the abounding
difficulties of the score, although
not too rhythmically exact, was in
itself enough to rouse the demon
stration he received and the sew
eral recalls.
Pergolesi's 'Concertino for
Strings" is an interesting addi-
ton to the Symphony's repertoire.
especially since little of his orches-
tral music Is heard. The original
manuscripts of the "Concertino"
are in the Library of Congress. It
has a suave gaiety and touch of
melancholy nicely balanced in the
graceful smoothness of the writ
ing. If reaching no particular
