By IRVING LOWENS

Paul Creston's mellifluouS cello
suite received a warm welcome
from a large invited audience,
including top musical celebrities
from all over the Nation, yester-
day at the 18th Festival of
Chamber Music held under the
auspices of the Elizabeth Sprague
Coolidge Foundation at the Lii
brary of Congress.
The world premiere of Mr.
Creston'S work. especially COM
missioned for the Festival, was
the highlight of the afternoon
concert in the Coolidge Audi
forum.
Brilliantly performed by CELL
list Raya GarbouSova with the
composer at the piano. the suite
proved to be a far cry from the
comparatively daring "Choric
Dances" for orchestra which first
brought Mr.. Creston to national
notice back in 1888.
Driving Conclusion Achieved
To judge by frequent perform
Iances of Creston music in
Washington by DR.. Mitchell and
the National Symphony Orches-
ira as well as yesterdays suite,
this composer has apparently
found his meter in a sort of
pleasantly grandiose neo-ro-
manticism. The harmonic idiom
approaches, but does not quite
achieve the daring of early De-
busy.
In its pizzicato scherzino, the
suite was reminiscent of the
Ravel quartet. Its two slow
movements seemed oversugared
with an abundance of dominant

aged to achieve something like
eloquence and drive in a yir-
tuoso tarantella which brought
the piece to a driving con-
clusion.
OF a more contemporaneous
sound was Quincy Porter's eighth
string quartet. which dates from
1850.
Well Balanced Program
Porter's chamber music is as
pale and astringent as a dry
martini. The olive in yesterdays
cocktail proved TO be the Bit
tersweet final adagio, with its
strong lyricism and sophisti-
Gated expressiveness. In this

Luigi Dallapiccola, whose song
cycle written for the Coolidge
Festival has caused a great deal
of interest in town this week
mainly on account either of
difficulty or lack of appeal it
has remained unsung-last night
created a sensation with an
earlier work offered as a
substitute.
The famous Italian composer
accompanied baritone Frederick
Fuller in Three Fragments from
the Song of Roland" and the
music, the singing and the
piano-playing, not to mention
the poetry, all were of the
greatest distinction.
Music is Poignant
The music is dissonant, poig-
nant, and well-Suited to the
voice of strong and dramatic
singer, Such is certainly Mr.
Fuller, who made of the lament
music as appealing as any that
could have sounded from the
horn of Roland itself.
! The singer in charge of the
remainder Of the program was
Martial Singher, who in Ravels
"ChansonS Madecasses" was at
his best-revealing a voice
smooth and ingratiating and OF
great variety of color. In the
Rameau cantata, on the other
hand, the French singer seemed
somewhat i'll at ease.
The vocal line, accompanied
Iby violin, cello and piano con-
ltinuo, lacbed brightness and
clarity, and the overall effect
was of a modern adaptation
rather than a recreation from
lanother era.
The beautiful Faure cycle,
strangely enough. for Faure is
one of the chief delights of any
great French singer. was sung
with a certain competence but
without conviction, noticeable
affection or lyrical charm.
Delivery Somewhat Listless
Mr.. Singher.s voice as a musi-
cal instrument no one can
quarrel with; it is the somewhat
Ilistless delivery that is discon-
Icerting.
The five "Children'S Songs for
Grownups' of Irving Fine are
def and humorous settings of
animal verses of Gertrude Nor
Iman-apparently a bland Belloc
the English texts of which were
made even more piquant by Mr..
Singher's strong French accent
These songs, the composer
says, are for adults. but I am
sure many children would enjoy
1 them no less. Though slight,
they are not inconsequential, and
their only serious fault is pro-
llixity. The Duck and the Yak,
in particular. could be improved
by being shortened by a third. -

A Sincere Message to
the Practical Person
About Making Ones
Own Funeral ARRANGEMENTS

The thoughtful man or woman-the type who
carefully plans such matters as insurance,
trusts and estates-should give pause to this
sincere message about planning ones own
funeral. Hundreds of people have turned to
Joseph Gawlers Sons for these arrangements,
and have derived great personal satisfaction
from this wise move.
The planning and payment for ones own
funeral is practical approach to an emotional
crisis in the lives Of the ones who will survive.
When you remove from them the added burden
of funeral arrangements and payments at the
time of your death, you are giving them
further reason for cherishing the memory Of
you and your thoughtfulness.
Over and above this, however, is the very
practical consideration of saving your estate
money. BY paying for Gawler funeral during
your lifetime-either in lump sum payment
or through monthly payment plan that we
can arrange--you are paying today's price
for tomorrows more expensive services. AS
is the case with all services, the costs Of
funerals have increased over the years, and
there is every reason to believe that they will
continue this trend.
II you are the least bit hesitant about
discussing this matter please bear in mind
that hundreds Of thoughtful and practical
people have come to Joseph Gawler's Sons
over the years and planned and paid for their
own funerals. Many are living today who
have the solemn satisfaction Of knowing that
this problem will never face their family. We
have heard expressions Of deep gratitude from
the survivors Of others who anticipated their
own passing and spared the bereaved many
problems
Please come In and discuss this most practical
matter in detail and in confidence or
phone for an appointment.
