doesn't (com possible that such things

Hymphony No. 2 In B flit WP??',
Concerto In A minor Vlotti
P1" "'.??: ut
"L Preludes
Fritz Krclsler dominated the concert
of tho Boston Symphony Orchestra nt
the Academy of Music last evening ns
he has dominated every concert in Phil
adelphia this season nt which ho has
been the soioist. Having played here
tho greatest of the classic concertos, the
Beethoven and the greatest of tho mod
erns, the Brahms, ho last evening played
the final one of the scries, the grentest
of the uncicnts, that of Viotti in A
minor.
It wns not the concerto itself, but
what he made of it, that excited the
wonder nnd the admiration alike of the
cognoscenti and the comparatively un
trained hearer. In both tho Beethoven
and the Brahms concertos the nrtist hnd
a vehicle worthy of the genius of the
greatest player who ever lived, but this
can hardly be f.aid to be the case with
tho Viotti. Fundamentally, it is music
of n bygone day, but Kreisler has mod
ernized it with a genius equal to 'the
manner In which he plays it. lie has
mado no radical changes in it nnd none
whatever in the themes, but with n few
departures in the solo part and by some
effective changes In the harmony nnd
decided oues in the style of the accom
paniment, together with n modern or
chestration, he has mado the work one
whirh now stands high in the repertoire
of the violin soloist.
Pprhnns it wns less in what he did to
tho notes than the manner in which he
played them that made tho concerto
sound like a modern worK, ior xuisier.
more than any other artist, can convey
whatever impression he pleases with a
given set of musical phrases. The play
ing of the concerto wns n mnsterpiere
from start to finish. The work presents
no technical difficulty to a good violin
ist, but to play it. or any other con
nvrir. tvltli tho mnstorv with which Mr.
Kreisler performed it last evening nnd
to imbue n work considerably more than
n century old with the modern spirit
whicli he made it show arc given to but
few artists. .
Not the least of the features of the
concerto was the orchestrntion which
was Mr. Kreisler's own. Every in
strument of the orchestra is used with
a full knowledge of its value, both us
a solo, voice and in ensemble, and the
nrxhutrnl'nn chilp full. IS neVCr OVCr-
powering nnd sets off the solo part all
through. The changes in barmouy
which Mr. Kreisler has made also are
most effective and aided greatly in the
modern "sound" of the concerto. .Mr.
TCroioltr rppelvofl n zrent ovation
on his appearance and was recalled
many times after the concerto.
The orchestral numbers of the pro
gram began with Vincent d'Indy's Sec
ond Symphony, which received its
American premiere in the Academy of
Music some fifteen years ago with M.
d'lndy conducting the Boston Orches
tra. It is one of the most elaborate
and best of D'Indy's works, being far
superior In every respect to the "War
Symphony" played by Mr. Damrosch
sfimo wpplm aco. Tho work is scholastic
to a certain extent, but there is much
of musical value in it and .t shows the
great knowledge of his craft that M.
d'lndy possesses. He knows what ef
fects be wants and how to secure them
in the best manner. The symphony was
well played, the trumpets being espe
cially fine. The concert closed vith
"Les Preludes" of Liszt, nlso well per
formed. BABIES' HOSPITAL BENEFIT
