~ Secretary Wallace on Radio Forum; ‘Orchestra to Feature Bach, Brahms

¢ Crooks to Sing On Wallenstein Show Over WIRE.

.By JAMES THRASHER There is to be no soloist with the Philadelphia Orchestra on this evening’s broadcast (8 p. m. on Rather we are to hear a program of Bach and Brahms, conducted by Eugene Ormandy and consisting of two works for whose interpretation the Philadelphians are justly famous. Perhaps it seems odd to credit an orchestra, instead of a conductor, with an Yet a band of 100 musicians is something - more than an instrument on which a composer may play. And the Philadelphia Orchestra’s players shine forth so brightly in their performance of Bach’s “Come Sweet Death” and

the Brahms Symphony No. 1, which

constitute tonight’s program, that they safely may be given & large share of the credit. Some organizations vary greatly in their performance under differ=ent conductors. Not this one, however. In his years as sole conductor, Leopold Stokowski apparently trained his men to such a degree of musical excellence that their playing remains about the same, no matter what guest baton is directing them. Incidentally, the transcription of the Bach song te be heard tonight is by Charles O'Connell, one of the orchestra’s assistant conductors, rather than by Mr. Stokowski, whom many of us had credited with this superb arrangement. 8 # » Another radio orchestra of symphonic proportions has come into permanent existence. That is the group which Alfred Wallenstein conducts with Margaret Speaks and Richard Crooks every Monday at 7:30 p. m. on NBC-WIRE.- Most of the new players who have augmented the original orchestra are members of New York symphonic groups. Tonight Mr. Crooks will be the featured soloist, singing “Ah, Moon of My Delight” and Bartlett's “A Dream.” And let it not be forgotten that Mr. Crooks will be with us in person at English’s on April 11, to close the season’s Martens series. tJ #® 2 Though this news may be too late for today. you will want to store it away for future listening. At 3 p. m. on CBS-WFBM, Bernard Herrmann and the Columbia Chamber Orchestra was to begin a Monday series which will feature the 12 Concerti Grossi of Handel, along with other examples of classic and contemporary music for chamber orchestra. Today’s program includes the

“interpretation.”

first Concerto Grosso, the Fantasia No. 9 by the late 17th Century English master, Henry Purcell, and the Divertimento in F by Mozart. Next week, besides the second Concerto Grosso, Mr. Herrman'’s program will include thé first performance anywhere of a Largo for Strings by the contemporary American, Charles Ives, and’ Prokofiev's Overture on Yiddish Themes, which

'you may have heard on one of the

Jordan Conservatory faculty concerts earlier this season. The Concerto Grosso, as everyone should know by now, is a work for a small group of solo instruments

with orchestra. ‘Handel's “Concer-

tino,” or solo group, consisted of two violins and cello for these 12 works. The supporting orchestra was made up of strings and harpsichord, at which the conductor sat in the composer’s day. These 12 delightful and beloved concerti were composed in the amazingly short space of a month and a day—between Sept. 29 and Oct. 30 of 1739.
