The much-abused word “magnifi- cent” can be applied to this marvel of the piano, but it seems inadequate. Miss Mildner wore a light blue gown and high-heesed silver slippers and was a charming picture with her curly golden hair, As she took her that here was a pianist who had stunned audiences for over seven years, despite her tender years. As she Jaunchel into the Bach Pre- lude and Fugue in D-minor, it no longer was incredible. There was immediately revealed a power, @ de- cisiveness and an intelligent appre- ciation of the value of every note which is only by ‘master pianists. As Bach is profound and expressive, descriptive and psychol- ogical, so was Poldi Mildner’s inter- pretation. Every Note Distinct She next played the Allegro, Adagio and Presto movements of Haydn's Sonata in E-flat Major. In her ren- dition, the systematic development of the work was brought out with cry- stal clearness, the theme was re- peated with most intense apprecia- tion of tonal development. Schu- mann’s Symphonic Variations, the concluding number of the first group, was rendered with verity and accur- acy of touch, with the spontaneity and — wrote into the com! 5 In the second group were included Chopin's Waltz in C-sharp Milnor, Op. 64, No. 2 and Scherzo in C-sharp Minor, Borthkiewics's and Liszt's Spanish Rhapsodie.

Miss Mildner had the confidence of the bornepianist and the mature performer. She played crashing, stu- pendous chords, literally i atone the piano with her small hands. First her tones were ‘aunt derous. Then they were softly pian- issimo. Plays. Two Encores The ovation accorded the artist was received casusily and acknowl- edged with smiles and bows. Despite the taxing program, which ran well over an hour, she played two encores, “Hark, Hark the Lark” by Schubert- Liszt and a Chopin Etude. The au- dience let her go reluctantly, realiz- ing that less than seldom is such an evening of music to be had.
