TOSCANIN CONCERT WILL BE FAREWELL New York Philharmonic Not to Return to Capital Next Year. ‘When Arturo Toscanini lifts his | baton to conduct the program of the New York Philharmonic-Symphony Orchestra at Constitution Hall Tuesday | at 4:45 pm, he will begin what is! not only the last concert of that orches- tra here this season, but what is in! reality a farewell concert. 'The New York orchestra is not to raturn here next year. | The chief reason for the withdrawal | of the orchestra from both Washingtoa and Baitimore appearances another | year is lack of funds to finance the | annual tour, it is announced by T.! Arthur Smith’s Bureau, local menager. | It is estimated that onc such conc requires about $9,000 for financing. Also, | the long round-trip from New York' for 115 men each time is inconvenient | and, another reason for this decision— | the ‘orchestra can draw more lucrative | audiences in New York. | Loss to Capiial. Mrs. Robert Low Bacon, chairman of the Washington Committee for this | orchestra, says the entire committce | feels the keenest regret at this de- cision. The members cf the committee, which is made up of prominent women many of whom have really spent 2 great | deal of time in hard work building inter- | est in the orchestra in Washington. all | feel that the absence ci this orch tra in Washington's musical calen: is a loss_ertistically to the Nati Capital. They are all inter new orchestra, the National Symphony, which is growing so splendidly in the Capital, but the New York orchestra— the oldest in the country, with its marvelous organization of more than | 100 trained men playing under con- | ductors such as Toscanini, who have | dominated the orchestral field for many years, has a unique position among American orchestras for rare interpre- tation of the best in music. The Washiizto: Committee includes: Mrs. Bacon. ch: an; Mrs. Chester C. Boltca. P ess Boncompagni, Mrs. ‘William But a1, Mrs, Elizabcth Sprague C.o’ , Mrs. James Clemcut Dunn. Mrs. Chatles Eaton, Mrs. John H. Gibbons, Miss Laura Harlan, Mrs. John P. Hill, Miss Elizabeth Butle Howry, Mrs. Patrick J. Hurley, M George M>sia, . Eugene Meyer, M: Adolphe Kasg: ller, Mrs. William D. Mitchell, Mrs. Edwin B. Parker, Mrs. James S. Parker, Mrs. Warren Delano Robbins, Mrs. Bertranc Snell, Mrs. Lawrence Townsend, Mrs. Henry Wat- son and Miss Katherine Wilkins. House Is Sold Out. The program which Toscanini, who | though in his seventies is still a lead- | ing orchestral figure teday. will con: duct Tuesday afternoon will open with Beethoven's beautiful Third Symphony, called “Heroic” by many authorities. The second half of the program will include the overture and bacchanale music of “Tannhauser” and prelude and Jove-death music from another Wagner opera, “Tristan und Isolde.” than which there could be no more eloquent finale. Signor Toscanini is particularly noted as an interpreter of the works of Richard Wagner. Just before sailing for the United States last month for this brief season concucting the New York orchestra, he had a long inter- view with Frau Winifred Wagner and Heinz Tietjen, artistic director of the 1933 festival at Bayreuth this Summer. Signor Toscanini will conduct perform- ances of “Die Meistersinggg” and “Par- sifial” during the festival. Practically a sold-out house is antici- pated for this final New York orchestra concert. Mrs. Franklin Roosevelt has said she will attend. This will be her first appearance at any musical event as First Lady of the Land. Signora Tos- canini and her daughter, Wanda, also ‘will be in the audience and many prom- fuent people from out of town are staying over for this concert. AVY ORDERS Lieut. Comdr. George S.
