DOHNANYI-PRIHODA RECITAL Famoua Planlat and Violinist Give an Interesting Program i Lrno Dohnanyt. the famous pianist ) ml comporcr, and Vnsa I'rlhoda. the j young Itussian violinist, who has made a sen.ntlon in New York this season, gave a recital to about sixty persons in I (lie foyer of the Acndemy of Music yc- ' terdny afternoon. It is only fair to the music-loving people of Philadelphia to nay. however, that very few of them knew that sucHi a concert was to hi;' given. Mr. Pohnanyi appeared in Philadel phia a little mote thnn twenty years' ago with the Huston Symphony Oreb.s- ' tin. playing at tfcat time the Heethoveu "Kmpernr" concerto. Since then he has gamed added fame, both in his piny- ' Ing ond In his composing. He Is a great pianist, whose one fault seems to bo a tendency to play too loud, although this may have lieen due to the fact of appearing In n small hall. Tho com parative emptiness of the I'oyer nat urally added to this resonance. Ho first played a prelude nnd fugue In R minor of Mendelssohn, und, sec ond, n group of uis own compositions, two rhapsodies, op. 11, Xos. 1! anil !l ; a spirited march, n superb elude In R and a brilliant ettldc In V minor.

He played Hie r'o.lm of Corelll. that o'd war horse of the virtuoso violinist, the 1' sharp minor concerto of Krnst, com monly known as the yPathethiue." al though there Is llttl" pathos about a display of linger agility. Interspersed with three or four oversentitnentalized melodies. Mr. Prihoda hai an enormous lech nitjue of the left hand, nnd found np patently few diflieultles in the fingered octave wotk and (he llglitnlng-llke skips in which the Krnst concetto abounds. Ills tone is very large and clear, but nut of exceeding sweetness. The com- positions which he plnyed gave him small clinnc to Hhbw Interpretative ability, but thej proved him to be n teciinlclnn of the first rank. He closed the program with three numbers by Suk, Krclslcr and Pngnnlnl. ?lavo B. and L.
