That work, more satisfying than the Fifth, has a permanent grandeur that makes musico-historical references to Napoleon as one source of inspiration seem irrelevant and immaterial, The quality of the] “Eroica” is ‘as little dependent on Bonaparté as is the reputed quality of Napoleon Rrandy.

What I though of yesterday afternoon was this: When, as and if we can get enough Indianapolis Symphony fans to shell out a fraction of what people pay for prizefights, we'll hear the “Eroica” done with greater power. For best effect, that symphony needs more woodwinds, a section almost drowned on oocasion yesterday in the first move-

At Indiana

Hoagy Carmichael had his audience’ with him from the start last night at English’s. In the first of two recital appearances sponsored by Lawrence Hill, Hoagy warmed the hearts of his hearers with his vocally wide-ranged Hoosier twang, his modest-awkward-graceful manner and his very great gifts as a singing pianist, He can put a song across as few performers can. Perfect rhythm, wonderful sense of the unrealized possibilities of any melody and that inimitable manner (few artists man-

Dr, Sevitzky gave the symphony the careful, appreciative reading it needs. He avoids quirks and extravagances in Beethoven—a fact which may disappoint some listeners who have heard, via records and radio, the Beethoven track meets a few prima-donna conductors have put on. High praise to the French horns for that incomparable triad passage lin the trio of the scherzo. You could write an essay about that scherzo, starting with a dominant bass in the tonic, and one of the [finest bits of writing in Beethoven.

That's a compliment, not a sneer, For among undergraduates, who haven't had their spiritual epidermis blistered by the spotlight, sincerity and friendly casualness are prized more highly than the brassy, egocentric assurance of musical B.
