Hillman evidenced an earnest
appreciation and a mature un-
derstanding Of the composers
style. Tempt, phrasing and dy-
manic levels were selected with
the best possible taste.
In his quest for articulate
clarity Mr.. Hillman dispensed
with the pedal literally by re-
moving the pedal mechanism
from the instrument. OF course,
this laudable practice places a
heavy burden on the performer,
who must maintain legato lines
with judicious lingering alone.
Mr.. Hillman played with a fire
singing legato much of the
time, but there were slow move
ments. such as the Sarabande
OF the B fiat Partita, where de-
tached voice leading destroyed
much Of the logic of Bach's
part writing.
There was, through much of
the program, a certain hesi-
fancy, which may be in part
due to Mr.. Hillman's sincere
but cautious reverence for the
composer. Beneath this, how
ever, there was a technical in
security which muddled an oc-
casional run and too often pre-
vented tones from sounding.

US. Will Back
Hard Sell Fair.
IoSpurExports
By the Associated Press

The Government, in a new
move to spur exports, is asking
industry to help finance an
overseas trade fair exhibit that
will take hard sell" approach.
The Commerce Department
in past years has used its trade
fair program to win converts in
the cold war. Now it wants to
win customers for American
goods.
The shift in emphasis has
been prompted by concern over
the deficit in this country's
balance of international pay
ments. Last years deficit
totaled $3.7 billion.
President Sets Message
Salesmanship through trade
fairs is Just one approach being
taken by the administration
President Eisenhower will send
Congress a special message, per-
haps this week, proposing a
broad export promotion drive.
The trade fair phase of the
campaign will get its first big
test at the autumn interna-
tional fair in Vienna next Sep
tember ALL. BY having par
ticipating companies help foot
the bill. the Government hopes
to avoid any criticism that tax
dollars are being used to f.
nance the sales efforts of
private firms.
This has been one of the
major problems in giving the
trade fair program a new look,
Management Plan
Here is how the official
United States exhibit at Vienna
will be managed and financed !:
The Government will sponsor
a central pavilion which will
emphasize reasons for buying
American goods. In addition,
the Government will manage
the entire exhibit and pay for
utilities. guards and main
tenance.
Surrounding the central pa
vilion will be merchandise dis
plays sponsored by private
companies. Each participating
company will contribute to a
funds pool in proportion to the
space it occupies. In addition,
each company will pay for
shipping its display to and from
the fair site.

The Lamoureux Orchestra Of
Paris, Igor Markevitch. conductor.
Constitution Hall. Program: SYM
phony No ., E fiat, Gounod: Hymne,
Olivier Messiaen; Daphnis ct Chloe,
second suite; RaveI: Symphonic
Fantastique, Berlioz.
The good news is that the
symphony orchestra is not yet
an anachronistic music ma
chine. 1t is still alive and
capable of a universal artistry.
The bringers of the gospel are
the Lemoureux Orchestra of
Paris and its conductor, Igor
Markevitch, whose concert yes
terday in Constitution Hail
proved that a symphony or
chestra can still be one of the
most exciting musical mediums
known.
The famous old orchestra is
1.-the, lean, nervous, responsive.
It is capable of unbelievable
gradations of sound and has
the purity of tone of a good
string quartet. Its brass and
woodwind sections are better
than those of any other orches-
ira I have heard, and its strings
eschew at all times the sweet,
smooth, fat undifferentiated
ensemble tone with which ORCH
'eStras like the Boston and the
Philadelphia are able to achieve
the feat Of making Mozart,
Brahms and Bartek sound ex-
actly alike.
The peculiar character of
the Lamoureux Orchestra is its
vitality and its receptivity to
the ideas of a conductor who
showed himself to be a musi-
clan of extreme subtlety, un-
usual imagination and the most
precise communicativeness. Mr..
Markevitch is quite uninter-
ested in the ordinary virtuoso
effects of the ordinary conduc-
tor; for him an orchestra is
solely an instrument assembled
for the realization of a COM
poser's music. Not since Tos-
canini have I heard a con-
ductor who makes such impe-
riouS demands of an orchestra
and who has the talent to see
them executed.
The program was entirely
French. including the encore
from Bizet'S "L'Arlesienne. {"
The early Gounod symphony,
a charming novelty. is an
amusing homage to Beethoven
both the introduction and
the main theme Of the first
movement are virtually lifted
from his seventh symphony.
The "Hymne" of MesSiaen is
a solid work that may be de-
scribed as the style of the oom-
poser transferred from organ
to orchestra.
The elegance and brilliance
of the second "Daphnis and
Chloe" suite, though uncon-
sciously expected, was truly
astonishing. Likewise, the
Berlioz was a surprise, for
whatever, adjectives you think
apply to the great romantic
