A challenging program which
called for physical strength, en-
|durance, musicianship and super
lative technical equipment was
given by Grace Nelson Weisert in
the National Gallery of Art last
night. The Chicago pianist listed
only three works, each making
special demands upon her.
1t was enough. however, to hear
her play Prokofieff's seventh
sonata to be convinced of her
extraordinary gifts. Her intel
lectual grasp of the work and her
familiarity with the composers
idiom lent naturalness to her per-
formance rarely matched in cases
where unfamiliar music is brought
to hearing.
Her mature insight into the
nature of the sonata enabled one
to follow her closely and to share
in the experience which prompt
ed the writing of the composition.
Depicts Struggle in War.
Begun during the war years of
the Nazis' aggression and con-
quests in Europe and completed
at the time when Russia's fate
was sealed and World War II
wrought a havoc in the country,
the sonata represents emotionally
the sum total of the struggle. The
tremendous drive of the first
movement, the story of the coun-
try's plight expressed in lyric
strains mingled with tolling of
bells in the second, and the in
clslve energy of the finale were
admirably set forth.
Mrs. Weisert's execution of
Mozart's Sonata in D Major,
K. 576" was distinguished by a
Mozartean purity of touch. clarity
and nuance. The profusion of
melody was handled with a sem

NEW YORK lA - Some OF the

the first signs today of what could

bottom has been reached for their
business, include spokesman for;
Cotton, rayon, acetate, knitwear,

are among the industries that went

makers of many durable consumer
goods are making their adjust

beat their way back.

ran 6 per cent ahead of a year
