Paderewski Includes Indianapolis in ‘Art’s Greatest Comeback Tour’
By WILSON G. SMITH Famous American Music Critic and Composer. PADEREWSKI, erstwhile premier of Poland and present premier pianist of the world, ha3 come again into his kingdom—the kingdom of art where he reigns with regal splendor. Time was when he sat at the piano and like an improvisator wove tonal threads of which dreams are made, and cast the glamour of his poesy like a spell upon all who heard. Technic, the mechanical means of expression, was lost sight and hearing of through the hesplendent and ecstatic glory of his inspiration. He was a painter of moods clothed in c-clors glowing with iridescence—as changeable and beautiful as the rainbow. To the old masters he imparted an undreamed of import, call it insgßtation If you like, for it had a siWue quality that differentiated it from all others. He molded his tonal phrases with the plastic certainty of utterance with which the deft hands of the sculpton models his clay. In his halcyon days Paderewski did more to make obvious to the public the essential of tonal beauty as opposed to mere technical display in piano playing than all the horde of petty tyrants of the keyboard before or since. This was Paderewski in his first estate: in later years he seemed obsessed with the idea that noise—or volume, if you like—was the great I perquisite, and banged the piano like Hercules at his Augean task or Vulcan at his anvil. The piano fairly groaned and i shrieked under his titanic onslaughts, j It was frenzied emotionalism carried | to the nth degree, with but few traces j of the subtle beauties that had char- ' ac-terized his former artistry. It was a most astounding debacle ; and can only be accounted for througn psychological reasoning and analysis, complex and subtle. But now the tale is a different one. Concisely, It is Paderewski redivivus. the supreme artist of his first estate, with all his engaging charms of tonal beauty and interpretative inspiration reincarnated and made audible. The master is himself again: through tragic experiences his inspirational style has become more mei-, lowed and imbued with an even greater appeal and charm. Twelve thousand people obsessed by | enthusiasm rose ih mass to do him ! homage at the recital in Cleveland where I heard him the other evening. To arouse such enthusiasm in a mixed audience, with a severely clas sical program, means not mere virtuosity. hut something more far reaching and that is, personality and the intriguing charm of inspirational playing. So I make no mistake in using the term “Paderewski redivivus"— an artist supreme and unapproach-, able. Columbus Pastor is Dead Bu Time* Special COLUMBUS. Iml.. Feb. 28.—The body of the Rev.
