MUSIC MISCHA LEVITZSKI'S RECITAL. Mischa Levitzski, one of the finest artists in th® group of younger pian- ists playing on the professional stage, was enthusiastically received by the large audience present at the Jewish Community Center last night. He played a program of such familiar “‘war horses” as require superinter- vretation to give them freshness and convincing appeal. Unfortunately, Mr. Levitzski did not seem to have in- spiration with him last night, and as a result there were only a few mo- ments here and there of what he can give when at his best. Just why he gave the program listed, a typical program for a tyro, is a mystery. Mr. Levitzski has the ability to play he most difficult and the modern mu- sic very well. With the modern Rus- sians such as Prokofieff, a young Po- fis:tcomwser, especially in the lime- ight. of the moment; Szymanowski, the Spaniard de Falla, and a vast fleld of Oriental music such as Mr. Levitzski must have been able to cull for new things on his recent world-wide tour, why bring such a hackneyed program to the unusually musical audience that hears these concerts? Perhaps the word “community” caused such a decision. Yet a large percentage of the audience was made up of pianists and piano teachers of Washington. One lone man who gave the planist a mote before the program applauded vigorously and alone in the middle of the “Moonlight Sonata,” and then climbed enthusiastically to the stage before the final encores, gave real life to the evening and seemed to shake Mr. Levitzski out of a state of bore- dom. The best interpretations, the most life that he gave to any num- bers, the pianist gave to these final encores after he had to smile at this unusually ardent admirer. The en- cores were the Chopin “Etude in A Flat Major” and the gay “Eccossaise’ (Scotch Dance) of Beethoven. They gave a glimpse of the performer at his best. __The Bach-Liszt “Organ Prelude and Fugue in A Minor” and the Gluck- Brahms ‘“Gavotte” were played with technical poise and precision in shad- ing, but no spontaneity. To those who heard Gabrilowitsch Saturday night, they fell flat. Mr. Levitzski dragged his way into the Beethoven sonata, «nd only seemed to wake up to real interpretation after the forementioned interruption previous to the final movement. The Chopin group was all familiar, “Nocturne in F Sharp Major,” “Bu terfly” and “Black Key Etudes, “'Prelude in A Major” and “Polonaise in A Flat.” The encores were “Waltz in G Flat Major” and “Prelude in F Major.” In the last group there were two Levitzski wselections, an attractive Valse in A Major” and a more cbvious “Valse de Concert,” evidently Mr. Levitzski’s first composition, as it was given as “Opus 1.” There was the Tschalkowsky “Troika” and final- v the much-played “Sixth Rhapsody” f Liszt. In technique Mr. Levitzski is a marvel, with remarkable left-hand work and beautiful trills and runs with the right. At his best he is ex- cellent. but, of course, no one, not cven an artist, can be always at his best. H. F. = Blai il _ Charles Bates of Cannock, Scot- and, an ex n_and with war honors of D. M.
