came much easier, being cast in
melodious vein in its brief
compass.
The sonata by Karen Kha-
chaturian, nephew Of the bet

Gayne Ballet and other noisy
things, was a delightful affair.
1t was played sympathetically
Evelyn Schwartz proved in this
work an able partner at the
piano.
The Brahms quartet which
began the evening was notable
for much fine work on the part
Of the three strings, but not
very fine work on the part of
the pianist. Drive was lacking,
and the finale which should
have set a crown on the three
preceding movements came out
a little on the lame side.

All unexpected development
III the increasingly active con-
cert life Of the music depart
ment at the University Of
Maryland brought violinist Mis-
cha Mischakoff and a few
friends to the College Park
campus for an evening Of
chamber music. Now concert
master Of the Detroit Sym
phony, Mischakoff is an
alumnus Of the New York,
Philadelphia, Chicago, and
NBC orchestraS. He is Just
passing through, and very well
come.
The program was a broad
one in point Of styles and peri
ods, as well rs in numbers Of
players. The violinist's solo
stint was taken up by Bach;
the. Chaconne from the unae-
conlHanied partita in D Minor
was played as though it were
an old and well-loved friend,
but, ,cne the soloist has not ex-
amined closely in recent times.
There were jerky little dips Of
thefhow for the high voice in
the opening moments, and a
little scratching around later
on, but for the most part 1t was
playing Of eloquence and polish.
The Chaconne was followed

The aggregation Of college
students, high school students
amateurs, and professional
musicians that make up the
George Washington University
Orchestra were presented in
c~acert last night in Lsner
Auditorium, directed by George
Steiner.
The program was made UP
of good music, but Of such diff
ficulty that available rehearsal
time was not sufficient to
polish everything.
The most successful perform
ance Of the evening was a
concerto crosse by Vivaldi. In
which the concertino was played
with brilliance and verve by
Patricia Cochran and Gene
We've Fritter, violins, and Janet
Frank, cello. The piece also
profited by the very capable
cello section which executed
the jaunty sixteenth-note pass
ages without the desolat t e,
scrubbing sound that is some
times heard in this music.
Monica Ortiz, soprano, de-
livered a fairly competent ver-
sion of Mozart's motet for
soprano and orchestra, Exsul-
tate, Jubilate. The last section,
which Mozart marked allegro
non troppo mot too faSt) was
in fact too fast, and some Of
the ornamental passage work
lost a few showers Of notes.
In the Debussy piece and the
Brahms symphony that made
up the rest of the program
there were occasional fine pass
ages, and the orchestra kept
pretty well out of real danger.
However, there was enough in
security of tempo and enough
inaccuracy of one sort and
another to keep the perform
ance from being wholly enjoy
able.
The audience was sparse, If
loud in applause. This must
be discouraging to people who
put considerable skill and a
great deal Of effort in the
preparation and execution of
such q program.
