A large audience was present in the Fox Theater yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock to hear the concert by the Fox Theater Symphony Orchestra, under the direction- of Adolphe S. Kornspan, conductor. Recently insti- tuted by the theater as a musical pre- lude to the regular program, these con- certs have assumed a place of im- portance in Washington's musical lite. They are an evidence of a sericus desire to develop musical appreciation. by offering programs of sympho.ic juality. Furthermore,, they emphasize the growing Importance of photoplay theatér orchestras in the musical life of the public. The Fox Theater Symphony Or- chestra is an admirable organization of musicians, eminently qualified to play concert music. It is an impressive, highly trained group of 50 instru- mentalists. In concert grouping, they form a colorful picture. Mr. Kornspan conducted his orches- tra in masterly manner through an excellently played program. Light, tuneful selections from the comic opera classic “The Mikado” were played as the opening number, follcw- €d by Paderewski's ‘‘Minuet” and “'Song of the Nightingale,” polka, by Filipovsky, with incidental flute and piccolo solo pasages by Domenico Iascone. The outstanding and most impressive number of the program “Andante, Second Movement, Sym- phony, No. 6, By Tschaikowsky, was given a forceful interpretation. It possesses many passages giving oppor- tunity for strong, unified violin and callo play, for which the Fox Theater Symphony Orchestra is particularly well equipped, having a preponder- ance of string instruments. “‘March of the Dwarfs,” by Grieg, was played in a delightful manner, pizzicato fucnish- ing vivid, colorful shadings. numbers included “Minuetto irom A Healthful Place to Dine The foods are eo well balanced and so0 well prepared that it really makes one feel better, Have more yim, save on doctors’ bills, enjoy lunceon and dinner at— THE FAIRWAY 1407 L Street N.
