Famed Pianist
To Appear Here
Photo by swan Studios.

A change Of program will
give Washington the oppor-
tunity to hear one of the most
famous of the old school virtu-
oso pianists - Wilhelm Back
haus. He will play on the
Hayes Concert Series in Con-
stitution Hall on March 6. re-
placing Jussi Bjoerling. who
will not return to the United
States until 1856.
The 70-year-old pianist
played in America last season
for the first time in % years,
and was almost universally ac-
claimed by both audiences and
critics. Like Schnabel, he has
long been known for his one
composer recitals of Beethoven
and Schubert. There Is per-
haps no living pianist who has
made so many phonograph
records throughout the entire
life of the electrically recorded
record industry. Many in mid
ole age today first became in
innate with the masterpieces
of piano literature through the
work of this one man.

An Improving Situation
Victor Releases Some More Verdi,
The Requiem, Done by Toscunini
By jones 6. Deone

performing can be established.
The reproduction on the two
Victor discs is surprisingly full
and rich, too, measurably more
successful than the recent
"MiSsa SolemniS" both as to
vocal balance and overall
effect. The set leaves the old
Victor -Serafin one far behind
on almost all counts, although
de Stefano and Siepi do not
quite supplant Gigli and PIMA.
I like de Stefano's relatively
unaffected manner of handling
himself, though.
No SchnobeI
Victor is supposed to be- COM
ing along soon with long-play
revivalS of the Schnabel
Beethoven sonatas not yet re-
issued, a consummation, as the
saying goes, devoutly to be
wished. Meanwhile. Solomon,
the British pianist who prefers
to use only his last name
gradually is duplicating the
Schnabel series. Solomon's
playing certainly is no dupli-
cate of Schnabel's, though.
The latest of the Solomon
discs couples the first and
third sonatas of Opus 2. The
playing is fluent, but this is
about as much as can be said,
for it is nowhere near so crisp
and explicit as Schnabel's.
Another Beethoven specialist
whose superiority is displayed
in an identical coupling is
Wilhelm Kempff, who has done
all the sonatas for Decca. Sol
ONION seems to me almost al
ways to be moving more on
the surface of Beethoven's mu-
sic than within it. About the
best that can be said of the
new disc is that his piano is
very realistically reproduced.
Since Solomon has a habit of
blurring details by over-use of
the pedal, this is not entirely
a blessing.
Incidentally, a garbled refer
ence in last weeks column to
a new Myra Hess issue of Bee
thoven's Op. 100 and ITO
sonatas was meant to convey
Evening star., 1954-10-10

The long Toscanini identi-
fed with the music Of Verdi
can never have the proper
representation on records, but
the situation is vastly improv-
ing. Last month Victor gave
us "Falstaff," both Masked
Bali and "Aida" are in the
cards and just arrived is a
recording of a work equally
central in the Toscanini and
Verdi careers, the Requiem.
This is the broadcast per-
formance which Toscanini
conducted in Carnegie Hall
January 81, 1851. It is the
same performance, that is. ex-
cept for a portion near the
end which was afflicted by a
disastrous pitch accident in
volving the solo soprano. At
that point the engineers spliced
in a bit Of the dress rehearsal
which luckily was not so af-
fiicted.
Moving Performance
A fine, ear-filling, often
moving performance it Is, too.
as hardly needs to be stated.
verdi's Requiem is among the
more vigorous works Of its
genre. There are places where
for sheer, spectacular sound it
rivals the equivalent opus by
Berlioz. But there are many
moments of tenderness to Off
set those of drama and gran
deur. Altogether the requiem
is a richly rewarding and ex-
citing, we'll worth a place with
the best of Verdi.
The Toscanini hand is con-
tinuously evident in this per-
formance, which has uncom-
mon vitality and pulse. Giu-
seppe di Stefano, Cesare Slept,
Herva Nelli and Fedora Bar
bieri are the soloists and they
sing creditably. The Robert
Shaw Choral as usual does a
superlative job. AS for the
orchestra, surely nothing need
be said, for the NBC players
(now with Toscanini's retire
ment left sadly to fend for
themselves) have already
shown in the opera recordings
how q new standard of Verdi
Evening star., 1954-10-10

this hearers preference for
Schnabel.
Three Mozart symphonies
very largely ignored in con-
certs, the ones numbered Is,
20 and 80. have been assem-
bled on a new disc by Vox, in
performances by a Vienna Or
chestra under Jonel Perlea.
There is a fine little feast here
for Mozart lovers. Perlea seems
to be an alert and animated
conductor. and Vox has done
splendidly in capturing some
first-rate sound. There are
some substantial competitors
to the disc, notably Beecham's
recent reissue of No. 20 and
Won Karajan's No. 33. but soni-
cally it tops them all.
Jan 7umasow, once the Ma
tional Symptoms concert
master, has turned up on
another Bach Guild record,
playing in fine style the solo
in Vivaldi's G minor and A
minor concertos, as well as
one of the principal parts in
the concerto crosse in D minor,
Op. 3, No. II. The concerto
for flute called 1.-THE Bull
finch" a charming little piece,
also is on this disc, which
utilizes the chamber orchestra
Of the Vienna State Opera.
Vienna's Academic Kam-
merchor is heard in some crisp
a capella singing on a new
Westminster release of three
Bach r1notets. "Jesu meme
Freude," "Komm Jesu komm.
and "Singet dem Herrn," are
the pieces, which are nicely
recorded.
Another version of Schu-
mann's fourth symphony, this
time by Paul Paray and the
Detroit Symphony, has been
supplied by Mercury. At the
outset this seems a striking
performance, notable for it's
vitality and for outstanding
orchestral work. by the later
stages I had a feeling Paray
was souping things up a bit
too much, though. A definitive
job on all the Schumann SYM
phonies remains to be done.
Liszt's lies Preludes" on
Mercury's oversize is more
consistently suited to the
Paray treatment. It's first
rate.

Four Dedicated Men
Budapest Promises Greig Quartet
Among Seasons Other Items
By Doy Thorpe


The men Of the Budapest
Quartet were talking about
Japan when ! met them after
rehearsal last Wednesday.
They had toured the country
recently, and although they
found 1t a bit cold by the ther-
mometer, their audiences
were warm and enthusiastic.
It is clear that the Budapest
Quartet likes Japan.

I asked. cor did each mem
ber report on Americas reac-
ton to this delicate problem
individually? And that gives
me an idea-what does Japan
think about Marilyn, and what
do you think about her?"
"Oh, it's a shame" they an
swered more or less together.
Stupid. the way they did 1t.
Why did they have to get mar

When we gave a concert in the
Imperial Palace, the Emperor

Then we played a requiem such
as you don't often hear of. A
man at one of our concerts
paid his last, respects to his
brother by bringing his urn and
ashes to the Budapest Quartet.
It was really very touching for

Americans Off
In Davis Cup

BROOKLINE, Mass. R-From a
Davis Cup point of view, the Am
orleans are off to a poor start in
the 74th National Doubles Tennis
Tournament.
Tony Trabet of Cincinnati and
Vic Seixas of Philadelphia, who
eight months ago ran through Aus
tralia'S Lew Hoad and Rex Hart
wig in straight sets for their Davis
Cup doubles victory, were unim-
presSive yesterday in struggling
to 81, rs, rs triumph.
Though seeded first in this
event, Trabert and Seixas were
bothered by Richard Sorlien of
Wynnewood, Pa, and Rober t
Forbes of Philadelphia-former
team captains at Harvard and Stan
ford, respectively.
Trabert, the nations leading
singles player, appeared to lack
confidence against relatively un-
known twoSome that had never be-
fore played together. Seixas, off
his singles game in recent months,
was far from his best.

Not
So Confident
These Days
BY Ed coRRIcAN

NEW YORK R-He's not quite
so confident as he was back around
the All-Star Game, but Manager
Leo (ShakewelD Durocher of the
New York Giants has not exactly
counted his club out of the Ma
tional League race.
II know we've lost that fat cuSh-
ion we had," he sighed today as
he prepared to send the Giants
against the Philadelphia Phillies.
"But the fact is we're still in front
and we've got as good a chance
as anybody. It's really a new sea-
son with some 40 games to CO."
Durocher was glad to see the
PhillieS arrive last night, especial
ly since he was unlikely to see
their ace, Robin Roberts, who
tanned the Brooklyn Dodgers Sum-
day. The PhillieS have been as
easy as pie for the Giants and
last nights S-3 triumph was their
sixth in a row over them.
The Lip has been criticized from
everyone right up to his own front
office for changing the lineup
around too much, but as he said:
We've got to get some runs.
Therefore Ray Kat will be our
catcher from now on. Bobby Hof-
man (who got three-for-four and
knocked in four runs) will not stay
on first base. Whitley Lockman is
my first baseman.
That means that Yves Westrum,
whose batting average is an ane-
mic 1876, goes back to the bench
the spot he was consigned to be-
fore the season opened, and Hof-
man to his pinch-hitting chores.
81 just wanted Lockman to take
it easy for a few days" said Du
rocher. 81 told him I wanted him
to take a complete rest and not
play any ball. Also, Henry Thomp-
son will be back at third base"

|DentalCare
Set Fort
Veteran Groups

Two groups Of veterans again are
entitled to additional Government
paid outpatient dental benefits, v.
S. Parker, Manager Of the Veter.
ans Administration Miami Region
al Office said today.
VA has just completed an inter
probation Of Public Law 4s7, S3rd
Congress, that was enacted July
IS last. Under the law and as q
result Of VAS Interpretation, said
Parker, eligibility for additional
dental benefits was established for
the following two groups.
1. Disabled World War II and
post-Korean veterfns, undergoing
vocational rehabilitation under
Public Law Is and Ss4, who need
care for dental disabilities or con-
ditions in order to prevent Interrupt
ton of their training; and,
Z. Spanish-American War veter-
ans, including those of the Philip.
pine Insurrection and the Boxer
Rebellion, who need outpatlent
care for dental disabilities or con.
ditionS.
Public Law ~ excludes the two
groups from the restrictions of the
Independent Appropriations Act for
1855, Parker added, especially that
which states veterans with non.
compensate service connected
dental disabilities or conditions
must show they existed at time d
discharge.
For the latter veterans, the Ap-
preparations Act further stipulates
they must apply to VA for dental
care by December 81, 1854, or one
year after discharge, whichever ID
later. Public Law 494 also remoY.
es this filing restriction for PL IL
and SS4 trainees and for Spanish
American War Veterans.
VAS Interpretation Of PL 4o4,
which became effective August .,
further removes the restriction Of
"one-time" dental treatment for
these two groups. Now, both groups
may apply for dental care at any
time and may be furnished need
ed treatment on q recurring basis,
instead Of only once.
