the funeral march was excep-
tionally moving. with the cellos

poignant in their grief. The A.
male was taken a shade faster
than one ordinarily hears it, 1t
seemed to me, and found the
tempo effective.
The fifth symphony, which
came after the intermission. is
rarely heard on the same pro-
gram with the "Eroica." The
combination is interesting, for it
brings home to the listener how
extensively Beethoven had used
the universally recognized rhyth-
mic figure ordinarily considered
the trademark of the fifth SYM
phony in the earlier work. Apart
from that consideration, the fifth
symphony. while it is shorter,
direct. and less compli-
Gated than the "Eroica." is also
far less subtle and expressive.
1t is too bad that so fine a
concert was slightly marred by
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-03-06

of music will seem hackneyed
and perfunctory.
1t is not necessarily so. how
ever. Eugene Ormandy and his
men played the Third Leonore. :"
the "Eroica" and the Fifth"
last night in Constitution Hall
and kept these three MASTER
pieces as fresh and as vital as
they were when they we're
lcreated. 1t was truly a stunning
concert which suffered nothing
of the slick lassitude that might
have befallen it. 1t should not
be overlooked that the presence
of Beethoven in the partnership
was crucial. for Ormandy and
his men would certainly have
failed to turn the trick with
Tchaikovsky or Brahms.
The "Leonore" number three
may have been Just a great or
chestra playing an overture, but
the "Eroica" was wonderful
music making. The symphony
itself is the very pinnacle of the
form reached since Haydn
stopped writing symphonies. and
achieves a union of the ultimate
in strength with the ultimate in
grace nowhere else to be found
in the 10th century. When you
listen to the first movement of
"Eroica" you pity all other COM
poSers.
Everybody since Beethoven has
been frustrated by what to do
with the tension and power gen.
Grated in the development of a
first movement. Beethoven, with
out either cynicism or begging
the question. is able to show how
everything is related to physical
movement. and lends his piece
with a dance. The coda of the
first movement of the "Eroica"
is one Of the overwhelming mo-
ments of music. Mr.. Ormandy
did it full justice.
The rest of the symphony was
no less well played. In particular,

DR.. Ormandy's disregard Of the
repeats in both the symphonies.
These repetitions with Beetho-
ven are not a meaningless con-
vention. but an assurance that
the involvement of the develop
ment section does not come too
soon. In some of Beethoven's fin
est sonata movements-for ex-
ample the ninth symphony and
the Appassionata sonata - the
repeat is purposely omitted.
When Beethoven asks for it, it
should be played.
