THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Two Concerts Reviewed Here The name of Beethoven today takes on new beauty and importance in the minds cf all people who attended the Sunday afternoon concert of the Flonzaley Quartet at the Academy of Music Tinder the auspicles of the Maennerchor. The quartet as the second number played Beethoven’s “Quartet in F major, Op. 69, No. 1." Here la a score wealthy in musical thought. Its charm grows and grows until it becomes a haunting thing. The artistry of the quartet brought anew meaning of the hidden beauty of {Ms composition. The playing of this quartet was the euy winner of a wonderful program, I make a list of what I enjoyed most of the 1924-1925 musical season, I sure would Include the Flonzaley Quartet playing this Beethoven composition. There is so much real melody and musical thought in it that it would be a favorite on any program. It was masterfully played by the Flonzaleys. As far as I am concerned I never expect to hear it played with more intelligence and charm. A masterpiece played masterfully. The other two programmd numbers were Mozart's “Quartet In C major’’ and Moussorgsky-Fochon's "Pictures at a:i Exhibition.” Both splendidly played.* Due to the “temporary illness" of Alfred Pochon, Karl Kraeuter occupied the second violin desk. I have heard numerous quartets, but the Flonzaley Quartet weaves a heartier and more brilliant tonal fabric than any other similar organization I have ever heard. (Reviewed by Walter D. Hickman.) I- I- INEW YORK POLICEMEN MAKE MUSICAL FRIENDS The Police Band of the city of New York, directed by Capt. Paul Henneberg, gave a splendid concert at the Murat yesterday afternoon. This organization undoubtedly owns a -jlace in the front rank of American bands. The program wae thoroughly enjoyable from the fi*st march until the end of Victor Herbert's stirring “Grand American Fantasie," which concluded the concert. The program was varied to include thoee numbers which are essentially for a band as well as such standard numbers as the overture, "Rakoczy" (Keler-Beld) and Rachmaninoff’s "Prelude." At times, especially in the latter composition, the tone was as soft and clear as if it had come from an orchestra with the stringed instruments in use. Although all numbers wore well m Lift Off-No Pain! Doesn’t hurt one bit!
