Toscanini Plays Bach, Brahms and Schubert. HAT certain something which the old phrase, “Therc are no orchestras, only conductors,” inspired, came back to mind forcibly with the advent of Arturo Toscanini yesterday after- noon at Constitution Hall in the first concert of the year with the New York Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra. While the orchestra played with great zeal and devotion —in fact, left nothing to be de- sired-—all eyes and ears were centered on the conductor, who was in his best— N which is the best ~—mood. It was a pacific afternoon. There was_little of the excitement that one had expected. Mr. Toscnnln‘; s greete e e Iy bait: ot riotously. At the end he bowed and seemed in the best of humors, even after a corps of untutored ushers had very nearly upset his Schubert Symphony by indiscriminate seating of late comers between the first and second movement. As it was, no harm was done, except that the conductor rapped sharply with his stick and seemed, naturally, a trifle annoyed. The undisputed genius that Tos-* canini has for doing things just a lit’c better than any one else as- serted itself at yesterday's concert. While afternoon programs are apt to be more lethargic than ones later in the day. a more pleasing combi- nation of music and interpretation than was found between the hours of 4:30 and 6 couldn’t have been found. The program, given over to Schu- bert, Bach and Brahms, was a melodic whole suth as one seldom gets any more. Free from twentieth century musical quirks and explo- slons, it pursued an indisputably tranquil ccurse, interspersed here and there with the most majestic of finales.

It is seldom that he can be caught off his guard. There was warmth, soul and facile expression apparent in every one. He wrought the best of these three composers into an afternoon of incomparable musical wealth. The bombardments of the modernists being left “in the cold.” there was nothing to disturb the peace, and as the audience went home there was more than onc ccho of the old adage, “Never heard any- thing like it before.” E.de s.

For a basso he displayed a remark- able range, and his diction was ex- cellent, his English numbers being easily understandable. His voice was quite capable of attaining a high pitch without the sacrificing of tone as was shown in the rendition of Quilter's “She Never Told Her Love,” sung in English. Among the Russian songs ren- dered was an aria from the opera “Sadko,” entitled “Viking’s Song.” Virility of tone was apparent in this number perhaps a little more than in any other, unless it may have been Schumann's “The Two Gren- adiers.” “La Calunia E un Venticello,” an since.
