Castro Brings Latin Works Into Place of Prominence Guest Conductor and Marisa Regules, Argentine Pianist, Score Highly in Symphony Orchestra’s Concert By ALICE EVERSMAN. ‘The vivid personality of Juan Jose Castro as he directed the Nnttonll Symphony Orchestra last evening at concert event unique in the annals the Pan-American Union made this of the Union. It linked the art of north and South America in the presence of the noted Argentinian com- poser-conductor as leader of the Capital city’s own orchestra and by a rd, ¥ Mocuin program which brought the finest works of Latin-American composers o to a place of prominence besides®- those of Bach, Franck and the American Aaron Copland. This timely gesture of friendliness ex- pressed in 'nusic took place in the Hall of the Americas where the hos- pitable atmosphere created by the Union has done so much for the better appreciation of the musical art of the neighbor republics. The soloist of the program was the prominent Argentinian phnht Marisa Regules, who was heard in Cesar Franck’s “Symphonic Vari- action” for piano and orchestra. Miss Regules gave a brilliant per- formance of this exacting work in which her extremely facile and crystalline clear technique and full, sonorous tone made a profound im- pression. The diminuative pianist scored a pronounced success and was recalled repeatedly finally playing Castro’s difficult “Danza” as encore. Mr, Castro is a dynamo of musical energy. In his directing he fairly pictures the meaning and the effects he desires for the men who will produce them by the intensity of his feeling and by the minute care he bestows upon the smallest detail. The electrifying power of his author- itative beat, his fiery tempo and his expert play of color had the orches- tra keyed to a high pitch and the result was music iridescent and glowing. In spite of the ardor with which he drew from the musicians such whole-hearted re: , he exercised restrain in the matter of volume, striving rather for finesse in the handling of the tonal palette and offsetting it only occasionally by full sonority of sound. The transcription for orchestra of tree chorals by Bach, which was the first programmed number, showed the individuality of his con- ception in these contrasting organ works. His emphasis on the wood- Marriage License Applications Under D. C. law, couples must apply for a marriage license on one day, wait three full days and receive their license on the fifth day.

Its nobility was lifted from ponderous breadth to a more ethereal plane with a note of mys- tery overshadowing it. His gift for subtletry, for the creation of telling effects by the simplest means were also present in the “Arrabal” from his “Sinfonia Argentina.” In his writing as in his conducting, he registered his biggest moments un- obstrusively pointing them with a sudden dramatic outburst, “Ar- rabal” is a highly descriptive work with an emotional undercurrent strongly expressed. Mr. Castro’s reading of Aaron Copland’s “An Outdoor Overture” ‘was 50 clearly defined and so sym- pathetically treated as to give a new and fresh stamp on the work. A follower of the modern school in his own composing, he is sensitively alive to hidden meanings and dis- closed & wealth of beauty in the American composer’s highly inter- esting work. The program concluded with two numbers from the pen of Argentine composers, Aguirre’s “La Huella” and “El Gato” in Ansermet’s ar- rangement and Ginastra’'s “Suite” from the ballet “Panambl” The latter had four subdivisions—“Claro de luna sobre el Parana,” “Lamento delas doncellas,” “Rona de las don- cellas” and “Danza de los guerreros.” The imagination, skillful construc- tion and beauty of thought evident in these works was again a revela- tion of the character of the talent of musicians in the Southern coun- tries and our small acquaintance with it. Mr. Castro has been in- strumental in making it known both by his own artistry and his choice of programs. Army Orders ANTRY. Getsofr. Lt mmgenamm, from Chicago to Brool Betion Birst” Lt.
