Violinist Given Six Curtain Calls

Ginette Neveu Wins Acclaim at Symphony

Times Rdtter Few symphony.arehesiia solo~ ists get six curtain calls But that’s the kind of frenzied ° reception Ginette Neveu won last night in the Murat ‘for her playing of Beethoven's violin concerto with Fabien Sevitzky and the Indianapolis Symphony. Miss Neveu had stopped the show at the end of the first movement of the concerto, where a soloist customarily acknowledges applause. Instead of the usual brief tribute at that .{point, this phenomenal French violinist drew a sustained ovation. Seldom was so much enthusiasm so well deserved. Miss Neveu, who looks a bit like Elsa Lanchester and might have stepped right out of a first-rate

{foreign film about a woman vir."

tuoso, is simply top-notch. With no advance publicity, no aura of fame to sway listeners’ judgments, she delivers the goods as few violinists are able to do. Plenty of soloists play music. Not so many live music, and the most impressive thing about Miss Neveu’s fiddling is that she produces every note with her personality, and not just with . bow and strings. Appears Again Today As a result, she brings new life to the Beethoven concerto, which has abundant vitality to start with. She makes the entire composition significant. She uses her prodigious technique and beautiful tone — much warmer tone, incidentally, than French violinists traditionally have had— to create rather than to show off. In the virtuosity ‘department, her cadenza in the first movenient |it terrific.
