Of technique. This display was
carried further with the playing
of seven of the sonatas of
Domenico Scarlatti.
The greatest of harpsichord
virtuosi, Scarlatti was the COM
poser of over 500 short keyboard
pieces, originally called exercises
but usually referred to as Sonatas.
These exercises were written to
show the technical possibilities
OF the instrument. The playing
of the D Major Sonata, with it's
repeated notes and crossing of
hands, was well executed. The
sonatas were given added color
by the many combinations of
registers Mr.. O'Meagher called
into action.
The Sonata" in D Major of
Padre Antonio Soler was so in
teresting that it might have been
worthwhile to program more of
the Spanish students of Scar
latti. So many similar works of
one composer tends to become
monotonus.
Mr.. Johnson returned after
intermission to give very careful,
detailed readings to the Sonata, :"
No. S in F Major, by Handel, and
the Sonata" No. 6 in E Major,
by Bach.

Concert of Boroque Music
From J Countries Heard

Baroque music of seven coun-
tries was heard last night in the
National Gallery Of Art. The per-
formers were Britton johnson,
flute. and Hugh O'Meagher,
harpsichord.
Frederick the Greats Sonata"
in B fiat Major for flute and con-
tinuo started the avalanche Of
18th, 18th, and 18th century
music. This was followed by the
Clique" in G Major of jean
Marie Leclair which had a dis
tinct individuality of it's own
into which the national French
element entered. The early
American composer. Francis
Hopkinson. was listed in lyrical
andante, Give Me Thy Heart. P"
Mr.. johnson is the first flute
player of the Baltimore SYM
phony and is remarkable soloist
as well. His articulation in the
rapid passages and his tone in
all of the playing was superb.
Mr.. O'Meagher proved himself
to be a virtuoso of the first rank
on the harpsichord. Orlando
Gibbons, known mostly for his
English madrigals. has written
a piece, The Queenes Com
mand," which is a lavish display

Exceptional Violin Recital
Presented by Ellsworth

Sonata, Opus Sc, of sergei
Prokofieff.
The "Canonic Sonatas" No.
in G and No. 4 in D Minor by
G. T. Telemann opened the con-
cert. Both of these works DEM
onstrate why Telemann was con-
sidered one OF the greatest COM
poSers of his day. The counter
point is skilled writing and the
two voices are at all times suf-
flcient.
Giovanni Battista Viotti's rep
utation today as composer of
chamber music reposes upon his
excellent violin duets. Usually
these are heard only as teaching
pieces. Yesterday the artists
played the Duo 10. /, Opus
30, giving to the music a vital
force not often associated with
the duet.
From the classic period the
Duet" Opus 102, by Haydn was
cleanly played. The romantic
exercises of Henri Wieniowski,
'Etude" No. 3 and No. 4 brought
forth some intricate technical
problems.
Perhaps the best performance
came in the Sonata" of Proko-
fieff. This duet is characteris-
tic of its composer in the clearly
marked rhythms and the Striv-
ing for def1niteness of form. It
is built along diatonic principles
without the conscious striving
for new harmonieS.
The playing was we'll matched
as to tone quality and the bal
ance was good. There was a great
feeling of ensemble and SYM
pathy in all of the music.
