Two hundred and ten players selected -from schools all over the State of Virginia gathered yes- terday in Washington-Lee High School to make music together for their own fun and for the delectation of almost a thousand relatives, beaux and sweethearts. It wak the largest or- chestra this reviewer has seen. Actually, the orchestra was divided into two groups, each of which gave half the program. The first group, called the ' "Workshop Orchestra” under Frank Wendt, was composed of younger and less proficient high school players, 105 strong. The youngsters fiddled away with great vigor and amazingly good rhythmic ensemble. The percep- tible difference in the pitch within each of the five sections was great enough to give an eerie cast to the harmony, but one which a modern composer might well exploit on rare oc- casions. , The second group, also of 105 players, under Leo Kucinski, was drawn from 20 schools. (Twenty- four players, by the way, were from Washington-Lee.) These musicians worked together very well, yet not so well, it is certain, as ieach school contingent would have played by itself, for the large grolip had had only a few rehearsals. The comhined strings of the National, the Boston, the Philadelphia, and 17 other or- chestras would show less polish than any single unit. Music is a major activity at Washington-Lee. The orchestra rehearses for an hour every school day, and members receive one-half a scholastic credit for their work. The organization (not limited to strings) gives several concerts a year. The concert was in itself en- joyable, and the proficiency and enthusiasm of the players were a credit to the music depart- ments of their schools. It was disheartening, however, to re- flect on the fact that' all over the State of Virginia during the past weeks or months, hundreds of children were reheatsing a dozen compositions, most of them music of unredeemed ba- nality an<J Inconsequence. It is a fact borne out by extensive evidence that children, enjoy music of style and artistic value If they are exposed to it; they take just as readily to “A Child’s Garden of Verses” and "Alice in Wonderland” as to trash. These talented students should be given a repertoire not necessarily more involved or dif- ficult, but one which would be a challenge to their artistry as well as to the nimbleness of their fingers. String Quartet Offers Recital at Phillips J h* Claremont string Quartet: Gottlieb and Alflo Pignotti, violins; William Schoen, viola; Irv- ing Klein, cello. At the Phillips Gallery Program: Quartet in E flat, phus 125 No. 1, Schubert: Quartet ’’’ sr>\est5 r >\est Bloch; Concertino for P tr i? 8 .Quartet. Stravinsky; Quartet in F minor Opus 95, Beethoven. The Claremont String Quartet, formed in- 1953, gave a recital last nighC at the Phillips Gallery prior to its appearance in Town Hall In Nqw York. It is a good gfoup, the members of which have come together from four respected organizations the Guilet Quartet, the Gordon Quartet, the Horace Britt Trio, and the New Friends of Music. To judge it first by the Bee- thoven quartet, the most familiar piece on the program, the new i fellowship seemed technically ( able and artistically sound. The ( first movement seemed a trifle ; "nervous, even for so excitable a ¦' piece, and the slow movements J wanted repose and breadth of line. On the whole, however, the performance was a creditable ( one The Schubert E flat Quartet, i an early work of great charm but of so little originality that j it might have been written by any one'Of half a dozen com- posers of the period, was a wel- come change in a repertoire that, in Washington at least, is thoroughly worked over. The third quartet of Bloch, dashingly played by the Claremonts, is a competent but uninspired piece, interesting mainly in the slow movement, which seems to be a neurotic added variation of the fugue that concludes the Brahms-Handel Variations. ‘The Concertino of Stravinsky i$ not a major work, but on rehearing it I find a charming ebullience and dash that escaped me when I wrote of the perform- ance of the Budapest Quartet several weeks ago.

Shaw The dedication of a new organ, always a major event in the life of a community church, was con- summated yesterday at Chevy Chase Methodist with a recital by Robert S. Cllppinger, dean of the Harrisburg Chapter of the. American Guild of Organists. It is good to be able to report that the $32,000 Shaler Memor- ial Organ is in every respect worthy of its attractive surround- ings, It is an instrument 6f which the church and the makers, the internationally famous Moller Organ Company of Hagerstown, can both be proud. To this re- viewer’s ear, it sounded like one of the best organs in Washing- ton. The program selected by Mr. Clippinger was skillfully designed to exhibit the wide potentialities of the instrument, which pos- sesses a clean, full, true organ tone, quite individual in charac- ter, but rather reminiscent of the forthrightness and excellent balance of a mod baroque organ. The suppleness, accuracy, and rhythmic vitality of Mr. Clip- pinger’s playing made it a pleas- ure to hear. This, together with a program Containing such hon- ored names as Bach, Buxtehude, Marcello, Daquln, and Brahms, made the occasion a particularly festive one. With such an outstanding In- strument available, it would be a distinct disappointment if church music qf the highest quality is not in ample evidence at Chevy Chase Methodist Church in the future.

MacGlmsey: Think on Me, Scott: The Sunset, Tchaikowsky; As Sunlight Wakens Flowers. Schumann; La Ci darem la Mano. Mozart. A fresh approach to program- ming marked the joint recital of Mary Clarke and Alfred Crovato at Barker Hall yesterday. In place of the usual groups, each in a different language. Miss Clarke essayed a single group of seven songs, and Mr. Crovato did likewise. All but four of the 14 were in English. A short group of duets then ended the program. The two singers represent dif- ferent vocal types. Miss Clarke’s soprano is controlled perfectly on the lower dynamic levels; she sings pianissimos beautifully But with increasing loudness and in the higher range, her voice takes on a slightly brittle quality. Perhaps she avoided a real for- tissimo for that reason. Her In- tonation is excellent and her sense of phrasing more than sat- isfactory. The same cannot be said for her diction. Mr. Crovato, on the other hand, allows every word to be understood. He possesses a pleas- ing baritone voice, but seldom takes the trouble to modify its quality In a word, he just sings. It is unfortunate that his sense of intonation does not match his good musical instincts; many tones and whole phrases were sadly out of tune, Burtis Performs Masterfully at Organ By Frank C. Campbell Herbert Burtis, organ. Washington Cathedral. Program: Three Prelude* on Welsh Hymn Tunes. Vaughan Wil- liams: Messe des Pauvres Satie: Pre- lude and Fugue on Bach, Liszt: Pre- lude on Brother James’ Air, Carol- Prelude on Greensleeves. Wright: Suite One Fifty, Reynold^. In Herbert Burtis’ Washington Cathedral organ recital yester- day, Vaughan Williams’ Preludes on Welsh Hymns were masterly handlings of the Instrument, a quiet vein, the second prelude especially, was of delicate, poetic fabric, as was the Kyrie of Satie’s Messe des Pauvres with overtones of piety and awe. In lesser hands, the comparable In- tentions of Searle Wright’s Pre- lude on Brother James’ Air seem simply cloying, and the tinkling decorations he pits against "Greensleeves" in another prel- ; ude are only a poor imitation of Fachelbel. At best these two j pieces are harmless fodder for the church service.

Especially In. the middle sections, as he Bse bf f&e‘e£tective- - ness: of sharply contrasted solo stops, these were imaginative impressions beautifully etched in ' Icy hues. Mr. Burtis is a player of taste and genuinely virtuosic tech- nique. To these traits his play- ing of Liszt's Prelude and Fugue on Bach added mature insight. In his hands the piece was not the gargantuan monstrosity it often seems, but an arph-roman- ticist’s creation which, however full of excesses, is possessed of compelling vision and opulent power. Charles Byrd Shows Skill in Guitar Recital Charles Bvrd. guitar. Meserole Studios cf Music Program: Aria con varlazonl. Frescobaldi: Two Menuets, Handel: Jesu Joy of Man’s Desiring.

Guitarist Charles Byrd, a pupil of tne great Spanish virtuoso Andre Segovia, was heard yes- terday afternoon in a fine recital * at the Meserole Studios of Music in Silver Spring. It was immediately evident from Mr Byrd’s sensitive play- ing of a pensive, stately “Aria' con Variazone” by the 17th- century master FresCobaldi that this guitarist is a musician of no mean talents. This favorable judgment was strengthened by his beautifully moulded reading of a little suite along oaroque lines by Robert de Visee, a French lutenist-composer whose name is frequently found in programs of quitar music. The music composed specific- ally for the guitar which Mr. Byrd elected to play was, on the whole, of genuine substance and interest. If Mr. Byrd was some- what less successful in projecting the transcriptions of fairly well known miniatures which ap- peared as light relief between the solid works, this is probably more of a "eflection upon the wisdom of making such tran- scriptions than it is a criticism of the solosit’s skill. Mr. Byrd clearly showed that he is a first-rate artist whose playing of a subtle, thoroughly satisfying chamber instrument is well worth hearing. Miller Leads Choir In Inspiring Program Choral Advent Service. Northmln- ster Presbyterian Church. Chancel and Sanctuary Choirs. Donald L. Miller, director; Howard S Miller, organ: Jean Heers. Sue Warrell. violins. Pro- gram: Rejoice. Beloved Christians, Buxtehude: Christmas Cantata Lue- beck. The choral Advent service held yesterday afternoon at North- Presbyterian Church provedto %fan excellent demon- stration ot just how much an average volunteer choir in a neighborhood church can ac- complish in the way qf distinc- tive music-making under the direction of an imaginative mu- sician. Conducted by Dcfeald L. Miller, the Chancel and Sanctuary Choirs of the church assisted by two violinists and the regular church organist offered a pro- gram of unusually high interest featuring a Christmas cantata by the obscure baroque composer Vincent Luebeck. This naive and utterly charming , music, sung with affecting simplicity, per- fectly complemented the weight- ier Buxtehude work with which the service opened. The two cantatas were well within the technical capabilities of the singers and had obviously been prepared with loving care. If there were minor flaws in the performance, certainly to be ex- pected with amateur groups, the intrinsic merit of the music sung more than amply compensated for them. No doubt it would have been much easier for Mr. Miller to favor his congregation with music with which they were more familiar. In that case, however, everyone at Northmin- ster would have been' deprived of an inspiring musical experi- ence. L L. Choir of St. Lukes Performance Praised concert of Contemporary Music. Choir of St Luke's Protestant Epis- copal Church. Willis A. Hines. Choir- master, James B. Jones. ]r., organist. Program: ,A Call to Prayer.

Jtmes: All Ye Servants of the Lord, Elmore: Psalm 122, Sower- by; Paalm 93 Elmore; Thy Kingdom Come, Evans: O How Amiable. Vaugban Williams. The Choir of St. Luke’s Prot- estant Episcopal Church yester- day performed a program of con- temporary music, and did a first- class job In every respect. Fewer than thirty voices took part, yet an astonishing amount of sonor- ous tone resulted. And all of It was controlled and inteUigently used. The choir is well balanced, exhibits a complete dynamic range, and sings with enthusiasm. Willis A. Hines, the choirmaster, is to be commended for the ex- cellent performance he achieved with his relatively slight foroes. The music performed,, mostly of the short anthenVtype, ranged , from thoroughly contemporary works to works by composers who happen to be living today. Out- standing was a “Hymn of Joy," by Goldsworthy; here was a harmonized quasi-chant with interspsrsed Alleluias. The piece made a brilliant effect. The “Benedicito,” by David Williams, set problems for the choir in its use of free prose rhythms; but again the result was workman- like and enjoyable. H. V.

They gave it a performance of beautiful detail and stunning exuberance. The Mendelssohn Trio, Opus 40, stimulated their playing, too, and the Scherzo in particular was a delight Os perfect ensemble and dash. The trio opened'the program with a masterwork of the litera- ture. but the playing seemed jaded and routine. The Arch- duke Trio is a solid and durable work, but its familiarity and popularity make it a poor piece to undertake with anything but the most edreful preparation. The work of the Mannes-Gimpel Silva Trio in the more success- ful parts of its program seemed evidence that the Archduke had either been slighted or taken for granted. F. C. C.

News of Music: Virginia String Orchestra Displays Talents of StudentsBy Day Thorpe

Two hundred and ten playersselected -from schools all over theState of Virginia gathered yes-terday in Washington-Lee HighSchool to make music togetherfor their own fun and for thedelectation of almost a thousandrelatives, beaux and sweethearts.

It wak the largest or-chestra this reviewer has seen.

Actually, the orchestra wasdivided into two groups, each ofwhich gave half the program.The first group, called the

' "Workshop Orchestra” underFrank Wendt, was composed ofyounger and less proficient highschool players, 105 strong. Theyoungsters fiddled away withgreat vigor and amazingly goodrhythmic ensemble. The percep-tible difference in the pitchwithin each of the five sectionswas great enough to give aneerie cast to the harmony, butone which a modern composermight well exploit on rare oc-casions. ,

The second group, also of 105players, under Leo Kucinski, wasdrawn from 20 schools. (Twenty-four players, by the way, werefrom Washington-Lee.) Thesemusicians worked together verywell, yet not so well, it is certain,as ieach school contingent wouldhave played by itself, for thelarge grolip had had only a fewrehearsals. The comhined stringsof the National, the Boston, thePhiladelphia, and 17 other or-chestras would show less polishthan any single unit.

Music is a major activity atWashington-Lee. The orchestrarehearses for an hour everyschool day, and members receiveone-half a scholastic credit fortheir work. The organization(not limited to strings) givesseveral concerts a year.

The concert was in itself en-joyable, and the proficiency andenthusiasm of the players werea credit to the music depart-ments of their schools. It wasdisheartening, however, to re-flect on the fact that' all overthe State of Virginia during thepast weeks or months, hundredsof children were reheatsing adozen compositions, most ofthem music of unredeemed ba-nality an<J Inconsequence. It isa fact borne out by extensiveevidence that children, enjoymusic of style and artistic valueIf they are exposed to it; theytake just as readily to “AChild’sGarden of Verses” and "Alice inWonderland” as to trash.

These talented studentsshould be given a repertoire notnecessarily more involved or dif-ficult, but one which would be achallenge to their artistry as wellas to the nimbleness of theirfingers.

It is good to be able to report

that the $32,000 Shaler Memor-

ial Organ is in every respectworthy of its attractive surround-ings, Itis an instrument 6f whichthe church and the makers, theinternationally famous MollerOrgan Company of Hagerstown,can both be proud. To this re-viewer’s ear, it sounded like oneof the best organs in Washing-ton.

The program selected by Mr.Clippinger was skillfullydesignedto exhibit the wide potentialities

of the instrument, which pos-sesses a clean, full, true organtone, quite individual in charac-ter, but rather reminiscent ofthe forthrightness and excellentbalance of a mod baroque organ.

The suppleness, accuracy, andrhythmic vitality of Mr. Clip-pinger’s playing made it a pleas-ure to hear. This, together witha program Containing such hon-ored names as Bach, Buxtehude,Marcello, Daquln, and Brahms,made the occasion a particularlyfestive one.

With such an outstanding In-strument available, it would bea distinct disappointment ifchurch music qf the highestquality is not in ample evidenceat Chevy Chase MethodistChurch in the future.

A fresh approach to program-ming marked the joint recital ofMary Clarke and Alfred Crovatoat Barker Hall yesterday. Inplace of the usual groups, eachin a different language. MissClarke essayed a single group ofseven songs, and Mr. Crovato didlikewise. All but four of the 14were in English. A short groupof duets then ended the program.

The two singers represent dif-ferent vocal types. Miss Clarke’ssoprano is controlled perfectlyon the lower dynamic levels; shesings pianissimos beautifullyBut with increasing loudness andin the higher range, her voicetakes on a slightly brittle quality.Perhaps she avoided a real for-tissimo for that reason. Her In-tonation is excellent and hersense of phrasing more than sat-isfactory. The same cannot besaid for her diction.

Mr. Crovato, on the otherhand, allows every word to beunderstood. He possesses a pleas-ing baritone voice, but seldomtakes the trouble to modify itsquality In a word, he just sings.It is unfortunate that his senseof intonation does not match hisgood musical instincts; manytones and whole phrases weresadly out of tune,

Burtis PerformsMasterfully at Organ

By Frank C. CampbellHerbert Burtis, organ. Washington

Cathedral. Program: Three Prelude*on Welsh Hymn Tunes. Vaughan Wil-liams: Messe des Pauvres Satie: Pre-lude and Fugue on Bach, Liszt: Pre-lude on Brother James’ Air, Carol-Prelude on Greensleeves. Wright:Suite One Fifty, Reynold^.

In Herbert Burtis’ WashingtonCathedral organ recital yester-day, Vaughan Williams’ Preludeson Welsh Hymns were masterlyhandlings of the Instrument,

a quiet vein, the second preludeespecially, was of delicate, poeticfabric, as was the Kyrie ofSatie’s Messe des Pauvres withovertones of piety and awe. Inlesser hands, the comparable In-tentions of Searle Wright’s Pre-lude on Brother James’ Air seemsimply cloying, and the tinklingdecorations he pits against"Greensleeves" in another prel- ;ude are only a poor imitation ofFachelbel. At best these two jpieces are harmless fodder forthe church service.

Charles Byrd ShowsSkill in Guitar Recital

Valse Y Estudio.Sor; Preludlo Y Mlnuetto, Tarrega;Campo. Ponce; Burgalesa. Tarroba:Sonata. Opus 15, Gulianl.

Guitarist Charles Byrd, a pupilof tne great Spanish virtuosoAndre Segovia, was heard yes-terday afternoon in a fine recital *at the Meserole Studios of Musicin Silver Spring.

It was immediately evidentfrom Mr Byrd’s sensitive play-ing of a pensive, stately “Aria'con Variazone” by the 17th-century master FresCobaldi thatthis guitarist is a musician of nomean talents. This favorablejudgment was strengthened byhis beautifully moulded readingof a little suite along oaroquelines by Robert de Visee, a Frenchlutenist-composer whose name isfrequently found in programs ofquitar music.

The music composed specific-ally for the guitar which Mr.Byrd elected to play was, on thewhole, of genuine substance andinterest. If Mr. Byrd was some-what less successful in projectingthe transcriptions of fairly wellknown miniatures which ap-peared as light relief between thesolid works, this is probablymore of a "eflection upon thewisdom of making such tran-scriptions than it is a criticismof the solosit’s skill.

Mr. Byrd clearly showed thathe is a first-rate artist whoseplaying of a subtle, thoroughlysatisfying chamber instrument iswell worth hearing.

Miller Leads ChoirIn Inspiring Program

The choral Advent service heldyesterday afternoon at North-

Presbyterian Churchprovedto %fan excellent demon-stration ot just how much anaverage volunteer choir in aneighborhood church can ac-complish in the way qf distinc-tive music-making under thedirection of an imaginative mu-sician.

Conducted by Dcfeald L. Miller,the Chancel and SanctuaryChoirs of the church assisted bytwo violinists and the regularchurch organist offered a pro-gram of unusually high interestfeaturing a Christmas cantataby the obscure baroque composerVincent Luebeck. This naive andutterly charming , music, sungwith affecting simplicity, per-fectly complemented the weight-ier Buxtehude work with whichthe service opened. •

The two cantatas were wellwithin the technical capabilitiesof the singers and had obviouslybeen prepared with loving care.If there were minor flaws in theperformance, certainly to be ex-pected with amateur groups, theintrinsic merit of the music sungmore than amply compensatedfor them.

No doubt it would have been

much easier for Mr. Miller tofavor his congregation withmusic with which they weremore familiar. In that case,however, everyone at Northmin-ster would have been' deprivedof an inspiring musical experi-ence. L L.

The Choir of St. Luke’s Prot-estant Episcopal Church yester-day performed a program of con-temporary music, and did a first-class job In every respect. Fewerthan thirty voices took part, yetan astonishing amount of sonor-ous tone resulted. And all of Itwas controlled and inteUigentlyused. The choir is well balanced,exhibits a complete dynamicrange, and sings with enthusiasm.Willis A. Hines, the choirmaster,is to be commended for the ex-cellent performance he achievedwith his relatively slight foroes.

The music performed,, mostlyof the short anthenVtype, ranged

, from thoroughly contemporaryworks to works by composers whohappen to be living today. Out-standing was a “Hymn of Joy,"by Goldsworthy; here was aharmonized quasi-chant withinterspsrsed Alleluias. The piecemade a brilliant effect. The“Benedicito,” by David Williams,set problems for the choir in itsuse of free prose rhythms; butagain the result was workman-like and enjoyable. H. V.

NATIONALAIRLINE OF THE BTARB

National Gallery by the Mannes-Gimpel-Silva Trio.

From its first phrases the en-semble last, night showed fullawareness of the work’s poten-tialities, for it seemed to sparktheir playing. They gave it aperformance of beautiful detailand stunning exuberance.

The Mendelssohn Trio, Opus40, stimulated their playing, too,and the Scherzo in particularwas a delight Os perfect ensembleand dash.

The trio opened'the programwith a masterwork of the litera-ture. but the playing seemedjaded and routine. The Arch-duke Trio is a solid and durablework, but its familiarity andpopularity make it a poor pieceto undertake with anything butthe most edreful preparation.The work of the Mannes-Gimpel

Silva Trio in the more success-ful parts of its program seemedevidence that the Archduke hadeither been slighted or taken forgranted. F. C. C.
