CONCERT TRIUNPH IN FREER GALLERY Chamber Music by Quartet and Trio First Program in New Building. A program of chamber music that was veritable food for the soul and mind was given yesterday afternoon in the auditorium of the Freer Art Galkry by the South Mountain Fes- ival Quartet and the Elshuco Trio. in the first of a seriee of three belng #iven this week as the gift of Mrs. Braderie Shurtleft Coolidge. Chamber music, which, for a time, fel most into the discard, has once nore begun to assert Itself, and the st ten or fifteen years have seen a irth of interest in this delightful phase of the musician's art. iofty compo terday Ly such highly cultured cia cannot help but give fm- to the growing interest. Tribute to Wilse Preceding the stated program, Her- | bert Putnam, librarian of Congress. paid a tifbute to Woodrow Wilson: “Upcn the eve of these recitals death has released to history a very eminent American, the foremost ideal- ist of his time, a leader of democracy in the loftier ways —and to them Chief Magistrata of the republic dur- ‘ng a great c:isis,” he said. ‘We have thought the mood and the purpose cf our programs by no meaus ineonsistent with the gravity of this cvent, with our natural con cern In it, with due respect. But. ln recognition of it, we shall today pre- ede the stated program with & num- 11y suited to the thought of se own form of expression i w0 exquisite. ’ from the B fat major quarter 1 commien - pose will be emphusized if you will listen to 1t standing and Tet it <o 4 w' was then played, ind its majestic melancholy awoke i responsive chord in the minds of the audience.

The justi- fication of this place for them: Luilding devoted to only the most re- ined of the arts—will appear also inl, formance. “What does not sufficlently appear| asuywhere is words.

And I should cxpress for her, as 1 do for the library, keen aporeciation to the Smithsonian In- titution, which, as overlord of the Frecr Gallery, is our host and the I t of our Lostess on this occasion. The fact that the Smithscnian is nly concerned with sclence sign Acs the more. It indicates—as does this gallery and the National gal- lery—an enlargement of its funct from “the increasc and diffusion of knowledge” to “the increase and dif- usion of culture.” Thé' regular program was divid into three parts, the first, Haydn's tring Quartet in D Major, Op. 20, No. 4, being for the quartet, which waus composed of William Kroll, first violin; Karl Kraeuter, second violin; Kortechak, viola, und Willem leke, , violoncello. It was typically /dn, ‘with its solid, rich harmonies wd its florid run: Sthring fugues were interspersed und built up into werful climaxes.

Thie work won the prize at the Berk- shire festival in 1921. A number of unusual themes were introduced, based on old English folk songs. Their strange intervals, un- | expected and yet intriguing, were supported by a harmony that seemed entirely new. It was almost as if the audience had been enchanted and transported into some unknown land. The guite is one that is filled with de- lights as new chords follow, one after another and the motifs carry the lis- tener along unfamiliar paths. If one concentrated either upon the accom- paniment or upon the theme, the re- sult was the same. The music strikes an entirely new note. It is concelved | upon a high plane and holds much { promise for the future as the ear he- comes attuned to its wonderful melo- dies and *harmonies. Prise Winner Performed. As the concluding group the quartet played another Berkshire prize win- ner, Weiner's “String Quartet in F Sharp Minor.” This, too, is modern. having been written by a Hungarian of the younger generation. String quartet ‘muglc is perhaps the most difficult of ‘composition, To udd to i this, the endeavor to scck new fields and avold the cammonplace ralses the | undertakiug_to rank with the most ambitious. ~ Weiner Lhas succeeded in this work in meeting all.conditios His music seems to explore the wil- | heard many new phrases, yet the un- dercurrent of the whole work seems | based on & substantial understanding of the pust. In particular the andante movement, which was played on the muted fistruments, was inspiring. It had all the ecstatic song of a soul that had risen supreme over some] mortal sffliction. This one movement | alone wes sufficient to mark the com- poser and the musiclans, who were playing with the seal of excellence. The concert was in the nature of a dedication of the auditorium, and from an artistic standpoint it could hardly have been bettered. Two niore concerts are to be given, one this afternoon and the other to- morrow. The seating limitations of the auditorium necessitated that ad- mittance be by invitation. LODGE WELCOMES D. C.

TTANNON & LUCH Realtors Owners and Builders R e “AID G. W. U. FUND CAMPAIGN,” IS BRANDENBURG’S APPEAL Former Board of Trade President Declares Ob- ject of University Is to Carry Out Idea Ex- preugd in Will of George W ashington. “Washington has had no cause before it in recent years of Freater moment than the campaisn now being conducted in behalf of the mllllon‘dnnnr fund for George. Washington . University. There is ‘nothing. that should appeal more to the patriotism und publie spirit of the people of Washington, as well as the country generally, than the welfare of this institution.” Thus spoke Edwin C. Brandenburg, for seversl terms president of the Washington Board of Trade and'a prominént worken jn civic affairs. “We are proud that we have within our midst such people as Mrs. Larz Anderson ‘und John Barton ‘Payne, cich of whom has recoguized the worth of this institution and contributed $25.000 to this cause. But there are hundreds of persons of. wealth and means who maintain homes in the District who can well afford to con- tribute to this ‘worthy cause, and it is to be hoped they will do so. ‘The great trouble is to reach the people who really are in- terested in the cstablishment of a great university in this city and in maintaining the prestige of the District of Columbla. The object and purpose of the university is to curry out the ideus expressed in the will of George Washington. 1t is a herltage that has come down to us' from the greatest patriot this country ever knew. We therefore, must appeal to the patriotically firclined men and women of this city and clsewhere to support this effort. The unlversity i non-sectarfan. It numbers among its students men and women of ull creeds, who earncstly seek the opportunities for un educu- tion which It affords. “The student body as well as the alumn! is made up largely of persons of limited means, and the response from them of necessity is limited, though all ar¢ aiding to their fullest extent. None but those in close touch know of the sacrifice being made by them. 1 feel quite sure that if the people of means and wealth could see their efforts and realize the sacrifices that are belng made they would gladly come whole-heartedly to the assistance of the university. n addition, all business men in the city of Washington should be interested in this cambalgn. They should contribute in large and small amounts according to their ability. From a pure selfish standpoint this university mesns mueh to the city when we uvlmh‘ler the hundreds of thousands of dollars spent here annually account. Its educational requirements and stundards are “qual to those of Harvard and Yule &nd the other big universities. The percentage of graguates of the medicul school who are admit- ted to practice stands far ahead of all other institutions; while the percentage of graduates of law who zre admitted to practice ulso is high. Al other work done at the institution Is of equally us igh _character. “Under the uble leadership of the new Dpresident, Willian Mather Lewis, the university has shown a distinct’ impetus to ad- Vance. It now has more than 5,000 students—all highly intelligent vyoung 1en and women—excellent faculties, but accommodations absolutely unfitted for the work it is lled upon to do. The students are accommodated in recomstructed private residences, many classes meeting In basements, while the mechanical lubo- ratory is in a structure improvised from two old burns. An Eng- lish class and sevcral other large lecture classes are obliged to meet in the basement of a church because of an absence of other accommodations larze enongh to meet the requirements. It is to provide suitable accommodations to house thesc thousands of stu- gents that the present campaign is being conducted.” CAMPOLI BOND $15,000.
