Intricately cut brims, draped in new ways to give themes of romantic music, he sought to convey—by hinting rather than by | obvious or literal composition—the | nuances of emotion, the veriest sug- gestions of sensation, and to enchant his listeners, not alone to divert them. | It cannot be said that, except in a | few instances, last night's interpreta- tions caught the full subtlety and sen- sitiveness of Debussy's spirit.
