Icinelli gives evidence Of sound
training in his playing and in
his interpretations gives evil
dence Of an overpowering pas
sion for neatness.
The impression was immedi-
ate in his attack on the two lit
tie sonatas by Domenico Scar
latti, which were dispatched

preston continued through the
B eethoven sonata. which
emerges differently under the
fingers Of many other pianists.
If in this work his interpreta-
ton seemed slightly odd, it had
the virtue of consistency.
A novelty on the program
was the little sonatina by the
late Berry, Rubinstein, who was
. pianist Of extraordinary sem
sitivity and taste. The sonatina
turned out to be q carefully
tailored and slightly derivative
work, light but soundly GRATED
and pleasant to hear.
The surprise Of the evening.
aside from its place at the end
of the program, was the fan

of Robert Schumann. Surely

to be Mancinelli's dish Of tea.
There was genuine sweep and
power in the swinging marches,
the final one which leaves its
theme drumming in the ear for
minutes after it is heard, and
No. 6, which pounds away as
though it would send an entire
army to the field. There were
moments when the large effect
aimed for suffered from rolled
and fumbled notes, but in the
main the entire set came off
with energy and conviction. One
could only wish that some Of
the emotion reserved for Schu-
mann had been spent. on the
Beethoven sonata, but still, it
was an enjoyable evening.

The seasons first concert b,

capacity audience to Mount st
Adams to hear two of the mas.
terpieces Of the repertory, tn
Bach Magnificent and thl
Mozart Requiem.
In some ways, Mr.. Callawa,
and his forces put on a really
incredible exhibition:
During the Requiem. it wa.
hard to remember when tn,
chorus had sung better Of
sounded better. Throughout
Mr.. Callaway's direction wa
sensitive to each nuance. anC
the moving and difficult work
so frequently more satisfactory
IN anticipation than in actu.
atty, really came alive.
I do not recall, for example
so deeply affecting a reading Of
those exquisite, hushed passage:
In the Agnus Del, the very
quintesSence Of that peace anc
rest Of which Mozart knew SC
little during his few years or
earth.
The soloists (among then,
contralto Joan Captain, a last
minute substitute for Mildred
Allen. who was indisposed)
sang with great beauty. espe-
cially Margaret Kali, who ap-
pears to be a genuine find.
Miss Kalil's pure and intense
soprano voice was, at times,
highly reminiscent of that of
the great Canadian singer Lois
Marshall. and it is a measure
Of her quality to note that she
was the outstanding member of
a fine quintet.
In the light Of so magnificent
o Requiem, the utter failure of
the Bach Magnificent is quite
difficult to explain on any ra-
tional grounds. 1t was as pc
destrian in conception and in
execution as the Requiem was
inspired.
Except for Miss Kali, whose
solo aria was an earnest of bet
ter things to come in the sec
ond half Of the program, none
Of the soloists seemed comfort
able. The orchestra had an in
ordinate amount of troubles
even including a false entrance
for one Of the high trumpets
and the chorus sounded slug
gish and muddy. The tempos
were just off enough to cause
trouble.
Mr.. Galloway did not succeed
IN building a single overpower-
ing climax in a piece that blazes
with drama.
This was, it is true, the first
Cathedral Magnificent, but one
never expects SO inept q read
ing Of any work from so fine Q
musician as Mr.. Galloway, and
