t The brilliant and breathtaking » music of the orchestra, under the 1 direction of Isler Solomon, cotn--1 pletely obliterated the atmosphere “ of the gymnasium and figurative- • ly transported concert-goers to a tine concert setting. The entire audience thrilled to 1 every selection of the varied program and enthusiastically called Solomon back for three delightful encores. The opening number of the program, "Merry Wives of Windsor Overture,” fay Nicolai, gave indication of the high caliber of musicianship which would entertain the : audience during the rest of the ! concert .„ , The predominantly sweet. and i light strains of the selection held | the listeners at rapt attention and produced a collective thrill. , Os special enchantment to the ■ audience was the vivacious* “Cas priccto Espagnol” by Rimsky* Korsakov. The vigor and vitality of this selection was infectuous and the highly resonant tones were only slightly marred by the less than perfect acoustics of the gym-nasium-auditorium. Poor acoustics, however, could not dim the obviously superior musicianship of the conductor and orchestra in their interpretation of this tremendous music.. The unusual orchestration of the “Capriccio” called for high quality in presentation and it was excellently delivered, , to the excited pleasure of the listeners. Also enthusiastically received was the dignified and majestic “Symphony No. 5 in C Minor” by Beethoven. The' excellent presentation of this famous “V for Victory” symphony was featured in the second portion of the program and was the climax of the concert. The audience was attentive through the entire symphony but the final movement was the real high point as far as the listeners were concerned. The resounding, heroic measures of this movement drew thunderous and sustained applause. The Indianapolis symphony then endeared itself permanently with its Adams county audience by presenting three sparkling encores, including the beautiful "Emperor’s Waltz” by Strauss and a selection by the noted American composer, Leroy Anderson. Only Solomonannouncement of the "Emperor’s Waltz” as the "final” tntore detained the audi-

| ence from calling him back for a fourth time. It is a profound {compliment to the orchestra that every member of the audience would have been more than willing to stay another hour to listen in spite of the uncomfortable seats in the gym’s bleachers. Each one ot Monday night’s audience went home convinced that the membership price for the entire season would have been worth last night’s concert alone. Another delightul evening is in store for members of the civic musk association March 5 when the Englekinder, * a family musical group, will appear at the Decatur Youth and Community Center. Three Hoosiers Die As Home Destroyed JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind. (UP) —Three members of a Jeffersonville family were killed today by fire which swept their home.
