MENGELBERG CONDUCTS. A large audience attended the first concert given here this season by the New York Philharmonic-Symphony Orchestra in Constitution Hall yester- day afternoon. Only three composers were represented on the program, yet the music continued to almost 7 o'clock. It was significant of the brilliant con- ducting of these tions by Willem Mengelberg of the audience remained until the last note. There were calls for c th delayed Mr. Mengelberg's baton as he ‘was about to lead the last movement of the symphony, but in spite of these interruptions, never has the throbbing beauty of this fifth symphony of Peter Ilyich Tchalkowsky been more impres- sively gmunmi Mr. Mengelberg and his orchestra received an ovation at th conclusion. It was several seasons is & wizard in his chosen field, and it is no wonder that Richard Strauss ded- icated his great tone m, “Ein Heldenleben,” to this utive, red- headed, dynamic Dutchman. It is to be hoped that the rumored difficulties between Mr. Mengelberg and Mr. Tos- canini in New York will be worked out in_such fashion that Mr. Mengelberg will return next season again with this orchestra with which, both as the New York Philharmonic and later in its new Philharmonic-Symphony form, he has done so much toward building and THE EVE...NG STAR, WASHINGION, D.

In the other purely orchestral number, Tehaikowsky's symphony, the orchestra again showed splendid co-ordination. The strings were especially lovely, ‘both the violins and cellos, sweeping into the long swinging phrases characteristic of many moments in this music, With beautiful, smooth interpretation. ‘The plaintive’ dominant theme that merges ttiumphant in major key at the last was hung like a guiding star always t | before the listener, yet twinkling with a different quality of flaming beauty each time it reappeared. The waltz theme, probably the most desolate of all waltzes, wove into the pattern more forcefully - than the writer - ever re- members its doing previously. ‘The lovely singing melody of the second movement was exquisitely given and the power of the finale was well worthy of the ovation that followed. Between Strauss and Tchaikowsky was placed the rarely heard “Concerto No. 1 in E Minor, Opus 11" of in, for piano and orchestra. This work, writ- ten exactly 100 years ago, is amazingly beautiful and its construction is fas- mllln[ to ‘orie’ hearing it for the first e.
