SATURDAY EVENING,
STROKOWSKI AND
ORCHESTRA DELIGHTS AUDIENCE
Harrisburg Choral Society Sings "Atonement" Before Capa
city House at Orpheum in Annual Spring Concert
Leopold Strokovvski, and the Phila
delphia Orchestra received a
tumultous and enthusiastic greeting
yesterday afternoon at <he Orpheum
Theater before a sold-out house.
The program opened with the
Brahms Symphony No. 2, in D. Major,
containing foilr movements as fol
lows:
I. Allegro ma non troppo
11. Adagio ma non troppo
HI. Allegretto grazioso
IV. Allegro con spirito.
The first movement suggests pas
toral simplicity, contentment and re
pose. This is the consensus of opinion
among critics. Brahms left us no
story relative to this sinphony. How
ever. if the scheme is pastoral In
thought what better source could be
drawn from than nature Itself? It
can easily be imagined that as the
music developed a few strong emo
tional passages would here and there
express themselves.
The second movement Is In more
serious mood and with undoubtedly
deeper meaning. It suggests one of
Brahms serious days.
In the third movement he is his
cheerful self again, radiutlng humor
and gaiety and yet carrying through
a melody with a fine outdoor atmos
phere. This melody is distinctly Ger
man in character all hough it is remi
niscent in a slight degree, of his Hun
garian dances.
The fourth movement opens briskly
with what might, be termed a country
dance. It suggests young life out for
a holiday, in fact, 11 has a Carnival
touch.
Broadly speaking Brahms turns to
the ancient and legendary for his In
spiration. He found modern times too
cold and practical. Brahms Is always
poetic an da master of detail; al
though he has not the depth of sym
patic so pronounced in Beethoven.
The orchestra did Brahms full Jus
lice. They played the work brilliantly,
fervently and sincerely. The tonal
quality of the orchestra is beyond
reproach.
Thaddeus Rich, violinist, appeared
in the Wieniawski Concerto in D
Minor. It it were not for the fact
that good violin literature Is scarce
this concerto would not be consider
ed of any great importance. True, if
is fairly pleasing to an audience and
Mr. Rich performed it well. He has
a good bowing arm, a clean and sure
technic and pleasing tone. Possibly
there was a slight lack of authority
In the handling of the broader pass
ages and here and there a slight thin
ness of tone but the more difficult
passages were handled with an ease
and clarity that satisfied and de
lighted.
A recent book told us that Richard
Wagner's music was aging rapidly. We
don't believe it! It is true that at
times Wagner sounds boisterous and
even pugnacious but there* is a
strength, a daring, a skill and a
verllity that grips and holds. The
"Rienzl" overture is a wonderful bit
of writing and it was wonderfully
played by the Philadelphia Orchestra.
There was a boldness and vigor coup
led with strong dynamics and stirring
climaxes that quickened the pulse
beats.
Mr. Stokowski belongs in the first
rank of living conductors. He has
command of his men, thorough com
mand of the musical task before him,
and also, complete command of him
self. He is always master of the
situation, he is graceful In his work
and yet he can add tremendous
strength when the occasion demands.
He and his men, as well as the soloist
of the afternoon, received generous

Tlie Atonement
In the evening Coleridge-Taylor's
Sacred Cantata, "The Atonement,"
was heard by a large and brilliant
audience. The Atonement Is con
structed along big and serious lines.
The one rich harmonic vein, charac
teristic of Coleridge-Taylor, so pre
vades the work that it grows monoton
ous. The question as to whether the
music has secular or sacred atmo
sphere is still debatable, but let It be
said right here, that the music cer
tainly does not fit the text, except in
a few rare cases. Softness and
spiritual feeling spontaneity and con
trast are lacking.
The finer sense of detail and color
give way to artificial and forced effects.
At the passage, "They Weave a Crown
of Thorns," the strongest dlssonenoe
Is on leave, and a dominant seventh
(accepted as a consonant chord) on
the word thorns. There was no pain
in the weaving, but there was In the
thorns.
"The Shadow of the Cross Upon My
Spirit Kails," Is built on an ascending
phrase. The word "falls" being the
highest note and at the end. This
may be originality, hut It is truth In
music? Another example, "Christ Has
Triumphed." The word "Christ" on
a high B flat, sung fortissimo is not.
good writing to begin with. It can
not convey any reverence and
further, the subject of the work all
through is Christ, and the point now
to be emphasized is "Triumphed."
Many other examples could be quoted.
The double chorus, "The Prayer," Is
well written—it is good music—but It
does not depict the weeping, simple,
trusting souls of the holy women and
apostles. It is too complex.
The whole work is mournful with
out being impressive, and the final
| chorus, "He Hath Triumphed," could
not brighten it enough to be effective.
In short the work gives the feeling
that harmonic effects are the chief
lends sought for, and that the text is
secondary.
1 The music in itself Is beautiful, but
not in keeping with the thought. The
; chorus could not overcome this
! handicap, but they carried the work
I along with tine surety, and worked
'up some fine climaxes. The chorus
like the work, because they entered
! into it with considerable spirit. The
soloists did not have a great deal to
I do. Mrs. Mary Ebre.v Hotz, soprano,
has a voice of lovely quality, and sings
with taste and understanding. The
lener Earle Waldo Marshall did what
lie had to do with excellent voice and
authority, but. why did he cut the best
sool in the work? Henry llotz, base,
had considerable to do, singing the
words spoken by Christ. Mr. Hotz is
limited vocally, and was not at ills
I best in the part.
The local soloists. Mrs. Cox, Mrs.
Harris and the Misses Heiclier Mid
daugh and Turner all did their parts
tail hfully.
The trio by Mrs. Cox, Mrs. Harris,
and Miss Middaugh was sung smooth
ly and effectively. The Orchestra ac
companiment gave good support, and
added color and richness to the vocal
part. The effect of the work as a
whole was marred by three or four
wearisome waits, whlcTi made the
work drag and lose whatever atmo
sphere It contained.
The work Is stupendous and ex
tremely difficult and that it was so
well presented Is cause for keen satis
faction. Dr. Wolle Is an able musi
cian painstaking and enthusiastic. He
conducted the entire performance in
a masterly way and brought the twen
ty-first season to a successful close.
