SCHELLING SOLOIST
WITH BOSTON BAND
Pianist Plays His Own Vari
ations With Dr. Muck's
Orchestra
A symphony heard hero hut two weeks
ago, tin co symphonic sketches by De
bussy not heard for somo time, nnd a
pories of variations noer lienid hero be
fore, mado up tho pi ogi am which tho
magnificent band from Beacon 1 1 111 (or,
moio accurately, from Symphony Hall),
played hero-last night. For tho third and
nowest of theso three numbers tho com
poser, Ernest Soliciting, was present as
assisting nrtist.
Tho symphony was Jloznrt's ln E flat,
which Jlr. Stokowskl conducted ut the
concerts of Fobiunry 4-.'. There was
something tempestuous tu tho first nl
logro, ns Doctor Jtucl; conducted It, and
ho raced with rnro zest through tho two
final movements with good authority,
for Jlozait himself wns not nvcrso to
going through certain of his works "on
high." Tho whole was admirably, deftly.
Intelligently plaed. It mado ono think,
for all the now not only accepted but
revered nnd bulw.irkcd simplicity of it,
that Jlozait would have lilted the throe
"sea" sketches of Debussy which Uood
on tho hatno program. For I" his timo
Jlozart outraged quiet minds by his dar
ing, and, no doubt, by Ills delicacy of
humor. That Is a quality which Inheres
In Debussy's sketches, ns much as It docs
In those Iberian thumb-nail bits which
nro not often enough plajed by orches
tras. Humor and delicacy are not tho only
attitudes lu tho strango attempt to
breathe the mystery of tho sou Into
music. To delhio further Is, according to
not tho least or Debussy's critics, tempt
ing tho fates. Yet ono may point out the
harmony which exists In tho boul of tho
composer and In the soul of tho sea, If wo
remember tho wa In nil tho nr!cty that
sweeps across tiro monotony of Its depths.
Debussy hns caught tempers ot tho water,
has suggested oven tho nerves of the sea,
nnd one may only quarrel with him If tiro
sea ho has ro tremulously captured bo not
tho tea of ono's own experience or Imagi
nation, ilven then something will bo left
in pi also of the beauty of tho themes and
tho marvels of orchestration. Nono of
which wcro scanted In tho plajlng last
night.
Mr. Schelllns's work was a sorles of
"Imprestlons (from an nrrlsl's life) In
form of variations on an orlginnl themo
for orchestic, and pianoforte!" Tho wholo
Is dedicated to tho eomposei's wife, tho
themo to tho orchestra, which plned It
last night, tho first variation to tho samo;
tho second, ri canon, rather martial, to
the conductor. Dr. Katl Muck. Mcniorlnl
dedications nro those to Hans PllUncr and
to Gustavo Jlahlcr. Tho oboe solo Is to
G, I.ongy. a variation for strings nlono.
"Polskn" to Padoiewskl, ono for viola nnd
plr.no has tho Initials of Fritz Kreislor,
another for full orchostri. recalls the com
poser's association with the Dulso of
Jtccklenburg-Schwcrln. Tho variation.
'August, 11)11," with tho buggcstlon of
troops going to war without tiro glamor
of battlo had an Immediate and special
appeal.
So likeable, so varied and so Interesting
wero all of these, and the other variation
to tho total number of 19, that one was
MISS GLADYS DAVIDYAN
Daughter of Mr, and Mrs. Ga
maliel K. Davidyan, of 2101 West
Venango street, whose engage
ment to Mr. J. Russell Baker, of
Treyorton, Pa., has been announced
i- $fllk v v ill
prono to overlook tho truly remarlrablo
playing of Jlr .Schelllng himself. Ills vir
tuosity hns long been unquestioned; his
sympathetic Interpretation of his own
work might have been tnken for granted.
Yet, assuming cver thing, thcro was nn
added gramhicss of execution In Mr.
Schelllng, a thrilling and wonderful com
munication from tho piano to tho auditors.
Of tho si-paiato vnr rations that with tho
initials of Doctor Muck was certainly
tho least subtle, though It was full of
a charm nnd humor which certainly nro
thaiactorlstlc of tho great conductor. Tho
dedicated offerings to both Padercwsk!
and Kiclsler nro to tho private man less
than to tho public, to the nrtist In each
rather than to tho player. Jlr. I'aderewskl
was, In tho qiinint and rustic phrase, an
Interested npplutiiler at the performance.
Tho turbulent spirit of JInhler was nd
mlrnbly suggested nnd the marvelous
playing of Jlr. Longy not only suggested
but put toflts severest test.
Apart from theso personal Interests, tho
whole work Is largely conceived nnd or
chestrated with a tremendous freedom.
Jlr. Schelllng has tho soul of a musician
and ndds to that the verve of tho nmntcur
(In more senses than one) when ho begins
to composo for tho orchestra. So thero Is
something gcucious and cheering and freo
in his work It Is too early to prophesy
that no other pianist will enro to learn
these variations. It would bo a pity if
tho Intenso personal nature of some of
them would keep the series out nf tho
repertoire of other' orchestras than this.
For tho work is big enough nnd lino
enough to go of Its own. G. V. S.
