A CHILDEN'S MATINEE CONCERT. At this time, when the world is find- ing each day new possibilities as to the capacity of children for grasping de- tails as well as essentials long before mlny of their elders would believe them ready, the art of music, along with the other arts and sclences, is revising its previous state of rather careless con- descension toward children. The day of the too childish or colorless program for children is past. It is significant that many composers have written and are writing music especially for chil- dren, and this music is quite as clever B. | if not so emotionally deep as the music written for adult audiences. ‘The lead- ing orchestras are giving special edu- cational programs for children and, through toy symphonies, children them- selves are encouraged to participate.

Even the fosslls had a haunting, color- ful melody and the familiar swan num- ber was given pnmcuhrly well by the violoncellist. Malton Boyce and James R.

Marta Patsu, Hungarian pianist, who was guest ll"-llb on this program, played Mozart’s “Sonata in E Flat Major.” Mme. Patsu was heard earlier in the Winter in a concert at which she won special recognition for her understanding interpretations of worrlu by her modernistic countryman, Bartok. Her Mozart yesterday was not so_colorful as her playing of che more modern works. The ¢ delicacy and lilting melodies inherent in Mozart's works did not stand out yesterday. There are few performers who can master both the old and new com- posers, so totally different structurally and otherwise. ‘The small orchestra, with Mr. Boyce at the piano, played a group of clever tone pictures for children, written by Rebikow and arranged by Maud Sewall. This series was not so subtle or melodious as the Saint-Saens carnival. The lento and finale from Dvorak's “American String Quartet” was the last number on the program, although two has such a pronounced individual and tone in her playing of the Others in the small orchestra includ- ed John Stone, who gets a rich, mel- (in from low tone contrabass; Francis his Sh\lll flutist; l%lr/hlrd lllfion. clarinet- | wrote .the harmonic lpllyer ot Lovls Goueher. xylophonist..
