Paul Olefsky, a fine young
cellist now on the faculty of
Iowa State University, was well
coined back to Washington at
the Phillips Gallery last night
by a large audience.
Mr.. Olefsky deserved both
the warmth of the welcome
and the size Of the audience.
He has a marvellous tone, and
it remained free Of scratch in
all registers and even in
stopped harmonics despite the
devastating clarity Of the
Phillips acoustics.
The Schumann Adagio and
Allegro was the most success
full part Of the program If one
discounts for the moment the
tiny Webern pieces. Mr.. Olef-
sky's warm tone and passion
ate phrasing are appropriate to
the Schumann work as they are
not to the French works.
And here I must demur. Mr..
Olefsky, like the overwhelming
majority Of the fine young mu-
sicians we hear, seems too much
interested in playing the cello
and not sufficiently interested
in playing the music. The re-
suit is insufficient attention to
style. and consequently some
what unsatisfactory perform
ances of pieces for which he
has no immediate, instructive
affinity.
Fortunately Mr.. Olefsky has
an affinity for Webern's micro
cosmos. These little works were
composed in 1914. They are not
12-tone; they are not even
atonal. They were beautifully
played. And yet the audience
reacted as If it had been sub
jected to some brand-new and
utterly shocking hoax. Webern
is the center Of a cult. but OBJ
viously the members are vir-
tually all professional musi-
clans. This is a great and
solemn misfortune.

The boys from Harvard and
the, girls from Radcliffe came
to Constitution Hall last night,
presenting an ambitious con-
cert.
The program was a far cry
from the "glee club" bill-of-
fare Of old. Harvard is, of
course. the place where the late
DR.. Archibald T. Dawson
Cknown as DOC" to the thou
sands of youngsters who learned
about music from hirn) wrought
a virtual revolution in COL
lege glee club standards half
a century ago. His successor,
G. Wallace Woodworth, walked
in the same path for many
years.
Since 1858, Eliot Forbes has
taken "Woody's" place, and
from yesterdays demonstra-
ton. it can be said that he is
a worthy inheritor of the Davi-
son tradition of unity and joy
in singing great music.
The finest singing Of the
evening came after the inter-
mission, beginning with a nice
ly balanced and expressive
reading of the Palestrina Sup
plicationes." The Banchieri
that followed was brightly
sung, and the Brahms excerpts
were appropriately poetic.
The Harvard composer Ran
dali Thompson's "Tarantella,
dating from 1887, was per-
formed with orchestra and
proved to be a nicely fashioned
work in the Testament of Free
dom" idiom. with an especially
moving unaccompanied section
Just before the final cadential
passages.
Before the intermission, the
Harvard Radcliffe Orchestra
directed by Michael Senturia
was largely featured. Mr.. Sen
turia is not so experienced a
conductor as Mr.. Forbes, and
the orchestra does not make so
satisfying a sound as the
chorus. 1t was, nevertheless, a
welcome thing to hear the
