SIC BY HELEN FETTER. rforming ‘the annual task _sorting out the programs given professionally and by *amateurs in the National Cap- 1 during the season 1928-9, ch may, by now, be officially cuddercd completely closed, it is ‘very- interesting to note the dif- ference in the general trend from %:t of several seasons past. ereas in former seasons the number of programs given that ‘were’ of ‘professional caliber num- bered nearly twice as many as those given during the past sea- spn, this‘year the number of ex- ceedingly creditable amateur per- formances seems to be on the in- | Br: crease. - Although the same “head- liners” among the professional recitalists reappeared with their gerem\lu.l promptness (and prac- cally their perennial programs) there vere not a few blanks in the usual ranks of those established artists. Also, the number of really admirably performed chamber music programs seemed to be on the increase. too, without the stimulus of a festival at the Library of Congress. Moreover, the number of programs given at the Library this year were less than during some prévious sea- sons. Those that were given there, however, were quite of the highest caliber and frequently had significance beyond the imme- diate performance. Such a pro- gram in particular was that! given by the remarkable Teach- ers’ Chorus of Prague, Czechoslo- vakia. ‘A program given there that it is hoped may blossom into further developmeht was = the sinflonetta concert of rare old music presented by a group of Washington musicians of which the members of the National String Quartet formed a definite nucleus and which was con- ducted by Kurt K:t.uL * * * TKERE are those who feel that Washington misses many things that the met.ropolu enjoys that Segovia, the great gultarist; a, the tarist; La Argentina, the g::ce sensation of the past season, and certain other individual artists have not yet.come. this way, although La Argentina is among the artists listed for appearances in Wash- ington next year. Also, of course, th;l dpop!:lluonb l;t Wlshiux’lgtnn could not possibly begin to pa- tronize the great number of mu- sical .activities put on in New York during a season. However, when reviewing the season just concluded, it would seem that in the list of about 100 significant musical events offered in the Na- tional Capital, many of the high- first of the season after his long absence, due to illness followed by a long rest. He only all-Wagner orchestra concert of hte year. Ossip Gabrilowitsch, regular conductor of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, conducted two concerts of the Philadelphia aggregation admirably and won ?lmculnr honors for his per- 'ormance as planist with the or- chestra in Brahms' “Concerto in B flat.” Artur Rodzinski, able second conductor of the Philadel- phia Orchestra, led the fourth pro- gram. He won many admirers locally for his interpretation of ahms’ “Symphony No. 1 Mer,” by Debussey, and the nov- elty, “H\ry .Janos,” by Kodaly. Eugene ns, the young Brit~ ish conduc led the orchestra in the final of the five programs, & program that was not particu- larly distin hed, although it was interesting to hear de Falla’s’ “Three-Cornered Hat” suite again and the premiere here of Vaughan Williams’ “Norfolk Rhapsody.” The Philharmonic-Symphony Orchestra of New York gave three gemgrum under Willem Mengel- rg, Fritz Reiner and Arturo Toscanini, respectively. Of the three, the last remains a flaming memory of inspiring music, made more inspiring under a giant among musicians and an orches- tra that seemed entirely new un- der his direction. The hackneyed overture to “Tannhauser” was given lflng new meaning with Toscanini’s interpretation. He also brm:fht in manuscript, the third, final tone poem in the series based on Roman history, natural and otherwlu. written by Otto- rino Respighi. _This ' one was called “Roman Festivals.” Next season Toscanini is scheduled for one program here. Mengelberg and Molinari are to conduct the other two programs. The Boston Symphony, under Serge Koussevitzky, presented two programs, including in them new works by Bloch (giving the rize-winning “America,” with a ocal chorus provlded by the Na- tional Capital Oratorio Associa- tion, Dr. Albert Harned, director), and Honnegger, the lnner being represented by his “Rugby.” An unfamiliar work to local au- also was the “Gymno- pedies,” by Erik Satie. Not so wen l;le;;ldeld %;rh:ps but surprising e for the two years only that the group has had for actual performance, was the ‘Women'’s Symphony Orchestra of Boston, Ethel a, mmmr The feature of the more im) tant of the two programs ven here was the presentation of the lights of the New York season also ‘were presented here. , Wash- m&'?:n ha 12 aperu presented by three leading. oomplnlel of Amer- ica.

Mr. Hurok and Mme. -Gadski between them, however, took over what had proved a fias- co in New York—according to-the critics—and developed an ad- mirable touring company, which won such recognition in Wash- ington and elsewhere in the coun- try that it is planning another big season for next year. This company brought the first com- Plet.e performance of Wagner's des Nibelurigen” to the Natlonal Capital of the United States, for which many Wash- ingtonians have : volubly, ex- pressed their thanks. The com- pany also put on a very fine per- formance of “Tristan und Isoide.” Mr. Hurok has announced that, in the coming season, they will pre- sent “The Flying Dutchman” (which has not been given before in Washington) and Mozart’s “Don Giovanni” (which, if recol- lection serves correctly, also will have a local premiere). The end of April the Metropoli- tan Grand Opera Company of New York presented. the “hit” of their current New York season— the revival of Massenet’s “Manon,” with L.crezia Bori, , Beniamino Gigli and Gluseppe de Luca in the leading roles. They also gave two of the most popular Italian operas with Rosa Ponselle in the leading roles and “Cavalleria’s” inevitable twin, “I Pagliaccl,” in which Edward Johnson won new admiration here for his histrionic ability. It is hoped that next year when the mnewly incorporated Washington Opera Association, Inc., presents the New York com- pany they will give some newer works or, again, some interesting revival of & work that has not been heard in the Capital for the R{st few years. It is known that iss Ponselle is studying roles both in Verdi’s little known opera, “Luisa Miller,” and in Mozart’s “Don Giovanni.” Also, Signor Gatti-Casazzo has announced tha’, one novelty and other revivals in the coming Metropolitan season will include: “8adko,” by Rimsky- Korsakoff (the novelty); “Louise,” Charpentier; “The Girl of the Golden West,” Puccini; “L’Elisir d’Amore,” by Donizetti, and “Fi- delio,” by Besthov*en * kK x ASHINGTON did not fare badly- orchestral lon, although the indications are this sea- | <2 Llnt “Hungarian Fantaisie,” with Miss Leginska playing the pianc part and du'ectlng too.

Those two ere Rosa Ponselle, the brilliant prima donna of the Mef litan Opera Company, and land Hayes, the famous colored tenor. Both Americans. Other particu- larly successful vocal recitalists were: Sigrid Onegin, Anna Case, Louls Graveure, ska, !um{uh Borl, Ruth Townsend Petrovich, Mme..

The pgls were: Josef Hofmann, Serge Rach- maninoff, Myre Hess and Viadi- mir Horowitz. The violinists were:” Yehudi Menuhin, Jascha Heifetz, Fritz Kreisler, Paul Koch- anski, Yelly d’Aranyl and Eddy Brown, Of them all, the 12-year- old Yehudi and Kreisler dominate the memory. One of the best of the young American violinists did not pre- sent a recital program here, but instead, stole the honors of a big choral festival with the magic of her fiddling. She was Sylvia Lent—who, incidentally, is a ‘Washingtonian. T * % TWO big professional choral groups visited Washington. They were the Prague Teachers’ Chorus, mentioned above, and the popular Westminster Choir of Dayton, Ohio. Both were well re- ceived, the latter having a spe- cial program at the White House just prior to sailing for what have | proved conquests in European cities. There also was much Ilocal choral work that was of fine cali- | ber. This, along withs other lo- cal perlommceu that seemed particularly worthy of end-of-the- season comment, will be discussed | in this column next week, along with the mention of the chamber music performances, both numer- ous and indicative of more mu- siclanly trend generally in the music being given in Washington. The whole season shows Phln]y ‘that the day of the recital artist is getting briefer and the number who, as individuals, still hold the power of attracting standing- room-only audiences is decreas- ing.
