Isaac Stern is a rare if not

with no off-days, he gives every
recital before an audience which
expects to hear the most nearly
perfect 'fiddle-playing in the
world. An easy audience to dis
appoint. obviously but the
amazing thing about Mr.. Stern
is that one cannot anticipate
his beauties. He always leaves
expectation behind.
The Brahms D minor sonata

protest in its outer movements;
all the aggressively willful syn
copation of its scherzo. Here the
performance showed the polish
and perfection which. as I say.

George Walker. pianist, was
heard in recital last evening at
the National Gallery of Art. His
program, except for an early
Beethoven sonata and a piece OF
his own, in a mildly contem-
porary idiom, was occupied with
romantic piano music of the 10Th
century.
The Beethoven sonata, an ex-
cellent choice if rarely heard
showed both the strength and
weakness Of Mr.. Walker as a per-
former. He has great dynamic
range. and an uncommonly fleet
finger technique. but lacks
clarity. eloquence in projection
