Final 15-30’ Concert Accents Melody, Rhythm and Drama By Alice Eversman The final program of the "15-30’ series of the National Symphonj last night in Constitution Hall was one of the young people's choosing The selections were those receiving the most votes when this ‘‘request’ program was announced and repre sented the general type of music the average enthusiast likes. The number of people in attendance shows how this series, not one ol the best patronized in the begin ning, is gaining more and more ground and popularity. The predominating elements ol the music played yesterday were melody, rhythm and drama. Emo tional intensity in both Tschai kowsky's symphonic poem, “Romec and Juliet,” and the ‘‘Allegro” of Schubert's “Unfinished Symphony’ was relieved by the colorful dances from Khachaturyan’s “Gayaneh,” which ended with the thrilling "Dance with the Sabres.” The orchestra did some of its finest playing in these numbers. Schu berts “Symphony” is one in which the tone of the ensemble is rich and pliable and the dramatic, mov ing story of “Romeo and Juliet” is visualized by Dr. Kindler with re markable effect. The three dance excerpts. “Dance of the Rose Maidens,” “Lullaby,” and “Dance with the Sabres.” are full of the contrasts the orchestra can measure so skillfully. The more serious part of the pro gram was disposed of before the in termission, following which the ever popular numbers such as Enesco’s “Romanian Rhapsody, op. 11, No. 2,” Debussy’s “Clair de Lune” and Johann Strauss’ “Emperor Waltz” were played. Each of these received the same well-thought-out treat ment so that their appeal, as built up from the National Symphony’s fine reading, can be appreciated. Dr. Kindler’s arrangement of Cho pin’s “Polonaise, op. 53,” is now one of the most desired numbers of the orchestra's repertoire and with it the concert series, sponsored by the young people, ended for this sea son. Budapest Quartet Concert. In the Library of Congress an other concert by the Budapest String Quartet drew a capacity au dience to the Coolidge auditorium. Programmed for this event were Schumann’s “Quartet in A Minor, op. 41, No. 1,” Beethoven’s “Trio in C minor, op. 9. No. 3” and Brahms’ "Quartet in B flat major, op. 67.” The Budapest artists, Josef Rois mann and Edgar Ortenberg, violin ists; Boris Kroyt, violist, and Mischa Schneider, cellist, again demonstrat COLOR PHOTOGRAPHS Candid Color Pictures of Children or Adults Taken in Your Home These photos are not tinted, but are photographed and printed In natural PULL COLOR. 6 Different Poses SfT'SO Individually Mounted_ | J For Appointment, Call Day or Evening HO. 4720 * * * tr FOR THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE DINNER and SUPPER Dancing TO THE MUSIC OF Panl Kain AND HIS ORCHESTRA 7 PJU.
