Premiere Of Hence
Opera in England

little below the usual musical
and dramatic level Of Glynde-
bourne, the ''Fidelio" heard
the next night was a miracle
by any standards.
Breathtaking
The simplicity of this pro-
duction, with no false or
oversophisticated note to
mar the basic human situa-
ton, was breathtaking.
Again Gunther Rennera was
the man responsible for the
staging, and one must praise
his remarkable versatility in
bringing life to two such diff
ferent operas as "Elegy" and
"Fidelio." His bold overall
pattern was etched with sub
tie detail. Most impressive
was the blocking of the pris-
oners' chorus. For once real
people emerged gradually
from the dusty, faceless
throng as it crept toward the
light. These people-political
prisoners-wore the rags of
the clothes they had on when
arrested, God knows how
long ago, jabots and shattered
tailcoats, wispS of once-white
wigs. When the sufferers saw
the green bough of a living
tree that had grown over the
courtyard wall, the effect was
anguish. TIA Maximovna's
sets and costumes were right
in every instance.
Vittorio CUTS direction of
the orchestra was thoroughly
triumphant, as might be
imagined. The Leonore Over
ture No. 8 was entirely alb
sent; for me this is cause for
rejoicing.
Clear Characterization
The singers matched the
framework. The Pizarro of
Herbert Fletcher. a terrible
Robespierre figure, the gentle
Marzelline of Elsie Morrison,
the excellent Rocco of Mihaly
Szekely, and the quite ma
jeStic Florestan of Richard
Lewis, whose rather gruff vo-
cal quality suits the role
all were splendid. Finally, Gre
BrouwenStijn, the golden
voiced Dutch soprano, as
Leonore, who was sheer
womanhood-a vocal projec-
ton of courage. warmth and
grace rarely witnessed in this
role. The Characterization
was so clear that the moment
when the toughness and ten
sion finally broke down-the
unlocking of Florestan'S
chains-waS felt like a ham,
mer blow.
Glyndebourne stands up
well. The old magic-dress-
ing up and taking the train
from Victoria station in
broad daylight to go to deep
country, the lawn picnics in
the beautiful gardens, the
glimpse of John Christie with
his cane and his two pug
dogs, is still potent.
But Glyndebourne cannot
compete in the European
summer market for the big
name singers, who fly in for
one performance (perhapS
without rehearsaD and then
out the next day. On a fes-
tival tour one observes these
celebrities rushing from one
engagement to another, tired
it shows in the voice-and
one deplores the fierce COM
petition that forces them
into this rat race.

GLYNDEBoURNE, Eng
land.-The most neYsworthy
event Of the current Glynde-
bourne season was the pre-
miere of Hans Werner Henze's
opera, "Elegy for Young
Lovers" Although previews.
in German translation, had
already taken place on the
continent, this was the first
presentation in the original
language.
1t was an exciting work on
all counts.
The librettists, w. H.
Auden and Chester Kallman,
devised a plot to suit the
composers wish to write a
chamber opera. A delicate,
deadly and totally absorb
ing story, it presents as CEN
trail figure a 10Th century
artist-geniuS, in this case a
poet.
American Baritone
A three-dimensional plot
was matched perfectly in
mood by Lila de Nobili's
single set, and projected by
the singers with general sue
cess. The American baritone
Carlos Alexander came close
to realization of the central
role: KerStin Meyer was
moving as the aristocratic
secretary. Elizabeth Sober
strom sang with sure mas
terry of the difficult music
and used her admirable voice
with complete freedom. Her
diction made its particular
mark in an opera where
every word should be clearly
understood.
Gunther Rennert's staging
of the work was flawleSs,
and searched out every pos
sible corner and angle of the
story.
Henze'S music is not easily
classified.
The form of the music de-
ponds on, and grows out of,
color-colors and shapes of
instrumental sounds. Per-
cussion instruments COM
prise nearly half of the small
orchestra. Henze has used
instruments to represent peo-
ple-for instance, a flute for
Hilda, an English horn for
Carolina. But he moves
these instruments toward or
away from the main texture
in novel ways.
There are tangible things
to admire on first hearing,
especially a canon duet be-
tween the young girl and the
old lady in the first act. To
assess the score would re-
quire many hearings. It is
enough to say that here is
a deeply impressive new
work.
The Glyndebourne "Ent-
fuehrung" heard this sum-
mer is not a new production.
1t is handsomely designed
by Oliver Messed in his best
tongue = in cheek baroque.
Mattiwilda Dobbs, whose
voice is far Steadier and
richer than a few years ago,
sang Constance with statu-
esque gravity. The Blonde
and Belmonte, both German
artists, were disappointing.
The sparkle was provided by
the excellent Osmin of Mi
chael Langdon.
If "Entfuehrung" fell a

lieve me, visit the Fawick
factory and be convinced.
I While / was there, I heard
Giorgio Ciompi, well known in
Washington as the violinist
in the Albeneri Trio, in a
remarkable demonstration.
Mr.. Ciompi first played a
portion of the Bach Chaconne
on the famous Wilhelmi
Strad, one of the best pre-
served StradiVari inStru-
mentS. He then took new
fiddle, just made by Fawick.
that had been used less than
an hour, and replayed the
same passage.
Sound Of Quality
The result? Astonishing
richness and purity, great
flexibility and power, and
the definite sound of quality
to the point where there was
very little from which to
choose between the two.
There is an interesting
story behind this factory and
its product.
Fawick Strings is the
hobby of a 72-year-old
industrialist. Thomis L.
Fawick, who has been in love
with violinS all his life.
Mr.. Fawick is best known
as an unusually inventive
mechanical engineer. A pio-
neer in the automotive field,
he created the first four door
car ever known In 1910 and
while still a young man de-
Veloped ideas which are still
basic patterns in the industry,
among them the internal gear
for automobile overdrive, the
axle reduction gear and many
innovations in transmission
design.
He organized the two
largest companies specializing
in heavy duty industrial
clutc h es, the Twin-DiSc
Clutch Co. Of Racine, and
the Fawick Corp. of Cleve-
land. The latter manufac-
lures the "Airflex" clutch
serving some 5000 leading
industrial companies.
During the war many of the
famous LISTS were equipped
with Fawick clutches.
Research in rubber chem
istry for certain components
used in Fawick clutches led
Mr.. Fawick down an odd
byway.
Through the Fawick Flexi-
Grip Co. of Akron, he man
ufactureS products such as
rubber golf club grips which
are leaders in the field I'M
der the trade name Golf
Pride" specialized grips for
hammers and small tools
and a new mute for violins
. and violas named after his
friend, JaScha Heifetz.
Technology and Music
1t was Mr.. Fawick's dream
that he could apply the
methods and the knowledge
Of modern technology to the
construction of the musical
instrument he loved.
During the 1905, he
thought of a way in which
he could treat a piece of wood
so that he could tell before
hand whether a fine musical
instrument could be produced
from it, and he also worked
out certain processes for
speeding up the aging process.
He completed his first in
strument some Is years ago,
modelling it after the Will
helmi Strad. one of his per-
sonal collection of fine vio-
Inns, and then asked some
of the worlds great instru-
mentalistS to test it.
Player and manufacturer
alike were satisfied with the
results.
The fine tone was appar-

Now, individuals over IS can

acceptance either in full or
