pin LIPS to come along so far
indeed, one of the pleaSantest
records dedicated to any key
board composers a new coll
lection of muzurkas played
by Guiomar Novaes.
To my knowledge Nine.
NovaeS never has turned out a
dull performance, but in this
case the repertoire, the artists
mood and the solicitude of the
attendant Vox engineers all
seem to have been more than
ordinarily attuned. The result
is IS minutes-all too short
of beautifully relaxed, lifting,
aurally tantalizing music
making.
There is quite a crop of
recent Chopin. william Kapell
plays the wonderful B minor
sonata and another batch of
mazurkas-only two duplicate
the Novaes list-on a Victor
issue. He plays well, too,
though not so POLITICALLY as
Nine. NovaeS, and the review
copy seems to have some pitch
waver. A couple of ballades,
an impromptu, a nocturne,
an etude and the B minor
Scherzo (but not an additional
etude and nocturne listed on
the jacket-check the record
label to avoid being misled)
occupy the sometimes pyro-
technical Horowitz attentions
on another Victor disc. Not
everything was recorded at one
sitting, and the sound is tinny
at times, but Horowitz is
Horowitz.
Wilhelm Backhaus. for Lon
don, does a dozen etudeS.
While he is fluent, certainly. it
seems to me BackhauS does
better by Beethoven or
Brahms. Ginette Doyen plays
four ballades rather pleasingly
for Westminster-Some might
call it sentimentally. The
sound is especially rich. Then
we have Artur Rubinstein
doing the B fiat Funeral
march) sonata on one side of
a Victor disc and "Ondine."
Mosques" "Poissons dor"
and other Debussy items on
the reverse. Almost everything
on this disc is marked by great
clarity.
Knows What He's About
George Copeland, Debussy
specialist who has been heard
at the National Gallery here,
devotes himself mostly to this
subject on an MGM issue. He
knows what he is about, but
the piano sometimes sounds
unnecessarily bell-like; in
"The Sunken Cathedral" it's
more water-logged than the
music calls for. Satie's third
"Gymnopedie" is included in
the set.
Among recent Schumann
items by far the most interest
ing is a set of the 18 "Davids-
bundlertanze" played for
M-G-M by the American pi-
snist. Joseph Battista. These
are delightful little, imagina-
tive pieces much like those
that make up Carnival" or
the "Fantasiestucke," and
equally worth owning. Battista.
who seems to be an accom-

occasionally tending to clam

Oscar was staggering around
in circles this week end, wonder
ing if he would survive to cele-
brate his 25th birthday.
The statuette, now almost a
synonym for Hollywood merit in
the movies, was sadly in need of
money. Worst of all, if major
studios do not come through

boards.
In the dolorous atmosphere of

the major studios - Warner

to conclude that he was not
prepared to go into the matter
any further. Later, perhaps.
1--WE met some fascinating
people," he started off on a new
track, after asking a couple of
his office staff to slide their con-
versation more out of range.
"At one session a few months
ago." he says, II was greeted by
an impressive looking woman,
Thank God. you're here I have
not seen her since and the, way
it looks now, I'll never know
why she was so grateful to see
me or whether I lived up to her
expectations"
X r X 4
Murphy's idea of his job, that
he is expected to shape up a
good show or series of shows,
is one that he feels has spared
him considerable mental dis
tress. He realizes that he is
dealing with a lot of tempera-
mental humans in his assort-
ment of performers and poll
ticians. He would not con-
sciously knick the feelings of
any of these.
He does not hope, however, to
escape unscathed in the multi
tude of personal relations in
which he finds himself involved.
If the shows, pre-inaugural and
otherwise come off as he plans,
he hopes to be forgiven for what
ever minor damage to feelings
that is laid at his door.
A member of the staff inter-
rupted at this point to tell Muir

Murphy thought this over for
half minute.

Inauguration signing bills, vouch-
