National Symphony Features
Viennese Music at Water Gate
By Alict Evtrsmon
Back to the gay Vienna days,
which have now become a legend,
was the slogan of the National
Symphony’s concert last night at the
Water Gate. Drawing from the
wealth of music that flowed so freely
from the pens of the gifted com
posers who found inspiration in that
city’s life, Howard Mitchell selected
a program that was filled with mel
ody from start to finish. In tribute
to one of the greatest, and certainly
the most beloved, living Viennese
composer. Frits Kreisler, two of his
works in orchestral arrangements
found place beside those of Mozart,
Schubert and Johann Strauss, Jr.
These formed a frame around the
performance of Agi Jambor, Hun
garian pianist, who was the soloist.
Mme. Jambor has been heard here
frequently in recital, but that she
is capable of standing out as an
orchestra soloist was demonstrated
;for the first time last night. Slight
! and modest in appearance, she is
a strong personality at the piano
leading the ensemble by the
strength of her temperament and
musicality. Her equipment 1s of the
best but what gives distinction to
her playing is the grace that infuses
every phrase, the poetic feeling and
the clean-cut, snappy rhythm.
Her solo choice was Chopin’s
"Variations on a Theme of Mozart,”
that theme being the duet, "La ci
darem la mano” from "Don Gio
vanni.” Written when the com
| poser was 17-years-old, it has ail
; the fantasy and technical variety
for a good show piece. Chopin’s
great love for the theater is re
flected in the treatment of the
theme which is sometimes permit
ted to sing of itself in rich piano
voicing and again to sound above
a complicated figuration in the left
hand or to be woven through broken
octaves, mighty chords or rippling
runs. The exact mood of each of
these diverse sections was repro
duced by the pianist most happily.
Commanding a weighty tone when
necessary, she can turn easily to a
light and airy touch of great cha’in.
More than her brilliant technical
performance was the eloquent, po
etic spirit that directed her at all
times. Her success was great. After
one encore, appropriately Schubert's,
"Soiree de Vienne,” in Liszt’s ar-;
rangement, she played “Minuet” j
from "Sonata, op. 78.”
The orchestral keystone was the
Schubert “Unfinished Symphony.”!
Mr. Mitchell gave it a superb read
ing especially remarkable for the
telling effects achieved through his
excellently planned crescendos.
Throughout, there was an ebb and
flow of color, all designed to ex
tract the full measure of the work.
Mr. Mitchell has not only discrimi
nating analytical feeling but also
a knowledge of how to make his dis
jroveries telling through the orches
tra. It is pleasure to hear the
proper sections given prominence
when it belongs to them and this
skill has been one of the revelations
of his conducting this summer.
It was present for as great an
effect as the works called for in the
, “Overture” to Mozart’s “The Ab
duction From the Seraglio,” the
"Overture” to Strauss’ “The Gypsy
I Baron,” his “Thunder and Lightning
Polka” and the "Blue Danube
Waltz.” Kreisler was represented
by his “Caprice Viennolse,” a violin
number originally but the violin
A dog’s best friend
is his man
In all of Nature, there is no counterpart
for the deep, age-old friendship between
man and dog.
A dog is a social creature. He is a
member of human society.
In return for a little kindness, he is
ready to give a family all his love, his
devotion, his labor, and—if necessary—
his life.
Just as people need dogs, so do dogs
need people.
And that is why the work of the Humane
Societies of this country is so important
Your local Humane Society helps fami
lies who are looking for dogs, and dogs
who are looking for families.
It offers expert advice to dog owner*
on the intelligent care, feeding and train
ing of their pets.
In some cities it provides skilled veteri
nary service for sick pets, regardless of
the owner’s ability to pay.
And it performs an important safety
service by caring for hundreds of stray*
that would otherwise wander the street*,
a potential menace to health.
Your Humane Society stands always
ready to help you. It, in turn, deserves
your help.
For this reason, the Chrysler Dealers
are sponsoring a radio program, “The
Animal World Court,” designed to make
you better acquainted with the activities
of these useful groups.
As an organization devoted to service,
we are proud to be able to help the coun
try’s Humane Societies in their generous
and kindly work.

choir m sadly at variance as to

his "The Old Refrain." Such gay
music as formed the last part of
the program had the added attrac
tion of fin* orchestral tone and
execution.
The evening was a perfect one lor
just such musical entertainment
and another audience of capacity
strength was present to hear it. We
are fortunate in having the Water
Gate for when the air is heavy in
the city street a breexe is sure to
be rippling the flags on the barge
and overhead is the serene blue of
the sky with a moon grown older
and fuller since the last concert.
