Concertgoers Display Lildng For Modernism Two Composition-*? Revived by Bodanzky for 'Friends of Music' Lend Fantastic Touch to Varied Program 'Grotesco' Is Reproduced - Brahms's 'Nanie' Serves to Purge Minds of Listen? ers of the 'Perilous Stuff' By H. E. Krehbiel At its third subscription concert. ff-ren in Aeolian Hall ysterday after- j noon, the Societ;* of the Friends of Music returned to the mission, which it steadily professes but frequently forgets, and crave a hearing to music of a kind to which ordinary concert organ? isations, from indisposition or inabili? ty, give no heed. Under Mr. Bodsnzky's direction it brought forward two new compositions, revived un overture which long ago fell into undeserved desuetude and, with the help of a choir which had been trained for the purpose by Mr. Stephen Townsend, of Boston, performed Brahms'a "Nanie"?a noble ?nd exquisitely beautiful setting of Schiller's meditation on the brevity of life anJ the inevitablencss of death. This composition, following upon the heels of an orchestral fantastic by Maliepiero, entitled "Grotesco," pro? vided some needed lustral water which f?urged and purified the minds of the istencrs of the perilous stuff poured into it by the Italian rpvolutionary. Repetition Seems Unmerited Properly approached, the "Grotesco" is innocuous enough-, but, taking his cue from the appearance of a score or two of persons plainly bent on making a demonitration in favor of modern? ism, futurism, impressionism, cubism (or whatever one chooses to call it), Mr. Bodanzky announced that "in jus? tice to the composer" he would play it again, and did so. Why a second hearing should have been thought necessary was not obvi? ous to the discriminating hearers, nor did the composition benefit by the repe? tition. On the contrary, the applause t after the second performance was neither as loud nor as long as after the first. The composition is a per? fectly frank experiment in musical car? icature, which *Z*b by a series of vari? ations on a themo (which in our mind called up *n amusing memory of "The Arkansas Traveler" to be playfully grotesque. The devices employed by the com? poser are many?augumentation and diminution of the theme, singular flights of modality, weird harmoniza? tion and instrumentation, eccentric rhythms, unexpectedly startling dyna? mic changes and many more. Instru? mental voices are forced into unac? customed registers, the pianoforte rum? bles in its depths after a tumbling glissando, the xylophrne Injects its macabre sounds, the deep-toned gong spreads a sombre quivering funereal pall over the conclusion of the piece which had begun with dwarfish glee to the cachinnative effect of fiddle bow sticks beaten against the strings, the muted trumpet ever and anon in? jects an uncanny phrase into the mass of sound and so on, and so on untr the composer's bag of tonal tricks is exhausted. Music for a Grotesque Dance It is all extremely ingenious and clever and the music would make a capital accompaniment to a grotesque dance of witches, warlocks, ghouls and goblins, but p ayed without such a spectacle after the diversion of ear and j fancy is ever'one is inclined to ask: j Cui bono? As for originality there was less of it in the piece than in the concertino for clarinet and orchestra (the other novelty) by Busoni. which was poorly played, indeed, by Mr. Chiifarelli and the band, but which would probably ! have made no deeper impression had it been better done. As it was, it was partly sacrificed, we fear, for the sake of the bit of grotesquerie. As for the overture, 8pohr's "Jessonda," it was mercilessly murdered. It was Schiller's love for classic lit eratt**-** --nd a desire to hind the Ger? man Hnrruage in tribute to the con? tours of Greek hexameter verse which led him to write the beautiful threnody to which he gavo the title "Nanie.'" It ! was Brahrts's wish to pour out a musi j cul libation to the manes of an artist v.ho had be?_n dear to him that led him to? compose music for the exquisito lamentation. The artist-friend of the composer was Anaelm Feuerbach, and the score of the cantata, if we may call it that, bears dedication to the dead painter's mother. In Schiller's poem there ?3 an echo of a Greek art form of such vast antiquity that it may have been borrowed by the people of Hellas from the more ancient Egyptians. Herodotus, listening in Egypt to the Ma?eros?th;> lament of Isi.* on the reath of Osiris ?recognized in it the melody of the Greek hymn on the death of Linos, mythical son of Apollo and music-master of Orpheus and Herakles. So popular was this ancient lamenta t'on that the name of the musician be came a generic term to describe a!' threnodies on death. As fully as Schiller did, Brahms entered into the . antique spirit, and the performance be? ing excellent and almost wholly worthy j of poet and composer, the audience was I privileged to leave the concert roorrl feeling spiritually refreshed and up lifted. i -? On the Screen 'Outside the Law' Pleases Those ? Who Like Crook Melodramas With Chinese Sellings By Harriette Underhill "Outside the Law," with Priseilla Dean as the star, was shown at four Broadway theaters yesterday afternoon and again in the evc:iing. Just what disposition the Universal intends to make of this picture later on wc have not yet learned. If you have ever seen Miss Dean you know about what to expect in the way I of a plot, for this vivacious star plays I only one sort of character?a crook j I ?and not a lady-like crook, either, who j has been stolen by a conscienceless | mother from a young Indies' finishing i school, but a real natural, human crook, ] the sort you might expect to find steal- | ;ng your pearl necklace. ? The scenes are laid in the Chinese ' quarter in San Francisco, and the only ; thorough gentleman and Christian is ? Chang Low, a Chinaman, who quotes I Confucius and believes that good rulers ; will in time make good citizens. Just ? as he has reformed "Silent" Madden ; and his daughter, Silky Moll, all their ! faith is shattered b. the rest of the ! gang, who frame Madden and railroad ! him away to jail. This leaves Silky Moll unprotected, but when they at- | tempt to frame her, as they had done dad, she proves to be one too many I for them. She escapes with the jewels and leaves them to pay the penalty. Those who ?ike crook melodrama with scenes in Chinatown ave certainly going to like "Outside the Law," for it ', is much bigger than anything of the kind we have seen. Right near the end there is a fight in which nearly every one gets killed. This takes place in Chang Low's Chinese palace and some? body back stage makes it realistic by smashing china all over the stage dur? ing the fight. Virtue triumphs, Moll returns the jewels, the villain is killed and "Dap? per Bill," thoroughly reformed, mar? ries the girh If some of the long scenes in the apartment where Moll and Bill do noth? ing in particular for ages, it seems, can be cut, we cheerfully recommend "Out? side the Law," and if Moll was intend? ed to be an enterprising young person with a sharp tongue and no sense of humor then Miss Dean is excellent in her characterization. We say this seri | ously. for no doubt a Siiky Moil in real life would be just that sort of person. I Only we are so used to seeing them glorified on the screen that we're not used to the ro-il thing yet. Lou Chanev is, of course, excellent as Black Mike". He also plays Ah Wing, a nice China? man. Wheeler Oakman is the hero. Dorothy Dickson is seen at the Rivoli in a George Fitzmaurice picture, "Pay? ing the Piper." Miss Dickson is not starred, but if any one has a right to bo certainly she has, for she dominates the production to such an extent that you don't think much about any one ; else while she is on the screen. It is ? not saying too much to say that she acts as well as she dances and with all of the piquancy and charm. In the picture she is Barbara Wynd ham, a young d?butante, who, the title says, knows more about New York than the Police Commissioner. She is bold end alluring and blas? and almost decadent at times in a most astonish? ing manner. She certainly gives a ENCHANTING TEA. ROOMS, A AND IffiU COFFEE SHOPS 'J**3 MRS.

She is merely quaint or chic. The other member of the cast who gives a notab.y good pcrfornance is Rod La Roque, ns the rich young man. We can't think of any one who could have done it better. The story is about two rich people who love two poor people, but the rich ones marry each other and the poor ones marry each other, and finally all ! an* happy and jolly around a Christmas tree. The story teaches you that there is i ; no Santa Claus. The titles are excel ! lent. Ouida Berber did the story. i There is also the second of the series of wild men of Africa pictures,, with the lecture by Dr. Leonard Vander Bergh. The overture was "Cavallcria Rusticana." ! ! At the Rialto Constance Binney is ! seen in "Something Different," a pic-1 ! ture taken from Alice Duer Miller's | novel, Calderon's Prisoner. There is ! nothing very different in this picture. Ittis like hundreds of others?pleas? ant, well acted and wrll directed. Alicia Lea (Miss Binney) is tired of her fat fianc? and a New York life, and she desires something different, so she goes to visit a friend in Central Amer? ica. Here she gets m'.xed up in a rev? olution, becomes a prisoner of war and later a prisoner of love. Miss Binney is charming as the spoiled beauty. Ward Crane is the South American lover. Crane Wilbur is seen in rather an unimportant part; it seems too bad i to waste him. William Neill directed ; the picture. The overture is "Capriccio Espagnol." Grace Hoffman is heard in "Theme and ; Variations." At the Strand George Arliss is seen in "The Devil." Betty Compson is at the Capitol in "Prisoners of Love." These will be reviewed to-morrow. The Stage Door Mrs. Fiske will be presented by Sam H. Harris to-night at Henry Miller's Theater in 'Wake Up, Jonathan," a? comedy by Hatcher Hughes and Elmer1 L. Rice. Charles Dalton and Howard! Lang play the two chief r?les in sup-i port of the star. | At the Republic Theater to-night! John Goldpn will present Grace La ' Rue and Hale Hamilton in "Dear Me," a comedy by Luther Reed and Mr. Ham- j llton; The supporting cast is headed by Robert Fischer. To-morrow night Winthrop Ames! will bring George Arliss to the Booth i Theater in "the Green Goddess," Wil-1 liam Archer's play. William Faversham in "The Prince and the Pauper" has been transferred from the Booth Theater to the Apollo. "The Emperor Jones" continues as a matinee attraction at the Selwyn The? ater. Heywood Broun will lecture on "The Critic and His Relations to the Craft of the Thteater" at the Plymouth Thea? ter on Sunday afternoon, January 23. under the auspices of the New York Drama League. Bird Millman has been engaged by F. Ziegfeid jr. for the New Midnight Frolic and will be seen on the New Amsterdam Roof beginning February 1. This will be the last week of "Mecca'' ; at the Century. 1 a-? Miss Kellojzg in Recital Soprano Includes Four Operatic j Arias in Program ! Miss Lucile Kellogg, soprano, gave' her first recital in New York at the ? Times Square Theater yesterday after- | noon. It is said that she intends to go j to Italy in the spring to prepare for' her d?but in grand opera. No doubt i it was with her future in mind that she | included four operatic arias in her pro-1 ^ram, Vissi d'Arte, from "Tosca"; Elsa's i Dream, from "Lohengrin"; Voi lo ! sapete, from "Cavalleria l'usticana,"| and L'Insana parola, from "Aida." Miss Kellogg's voice is a dramatic soprano of wide range and agreeable ! quality. She was visibly nervous at the ! beginning of her recital, but displayed1 possibilities of future accomplishment1 in her chosen field of music, the oper-! i atic stage. Albert Coates to Share Directorship Of N.Ys Symphony Waller Damrosch Selects Young Musician of London Organization To Be His Associate Conductor Here i An announcement of the engagement j of Albert Coates to be associate con? ductor of the Symphony Society of New York has been sent to the direc? tors of the society by Mr. Flagler. Mr. Coates, it will be recalled, came to New York a few weeks ago and conducted two concerts on December 30 and Jan? uary 2. Mr. Flagler's official communi? cation was couched as follows: "To the Directors of the Symphony So? ciety of New York: "In accordance with the desire of Mr. Walter Damrosch, expressed to me fre? quently during the past year, that there should be associated with hira another conductor of high artistic rank with whom he could share his con? stantly expanding work, I am pleased to announce the engagement of Mr. Al? bert Coat?s, the eminent conductor of the London Symphony Orchestra, of the Royal London Philharmonic Soci? ety and of the Royal Opera Covent Garden, to fill the post of associate conductor for the season of 1921-'22. "Last spring, before Mr. Damrosch sailed, I suggested to him that in furtherance of his wish to share the conduetorship of the New York Sym? phony Orchestra, he make use of the opportunity offered by his European tour to look the field over for an asso? ciate who would not only impart nov AEOLIAN HALL, TO-NIGHT AT 8:15 CIIOKAI, SONG RECITAL SC H V MANN C L U D P?rcy Rector Stephens, Conductor.

"With this end in view, his choice fell upon Albert Coates, who had re? cently returned to London after a long service in the cause of music at Petro? grad and to whom an invitation to visit us as guest conductor for a short period this season was extended. Mr. Damrosch s selection has been more than-justified by the enthusiastic rec? ognition of Mr. Coates's ability by both press and public and I am glad to avail myself of the option on his services for a period of ten weeks of next season which he gave to Mr. Damrosch last summer before our orchestra left Eng? land.
