Every gesture seems inspired by music, and one is arrested by the way he sways, the unaffected, eloquent movement of his right arm as he lifts the .bow, and the vital lilt of his head over the violin. Like Marechal and his 'cello, Spalding and his violin are one. The bow is his breath talking through ·the violin, and what it says is pure, ethereal tone thrills. He is the soul of grace himself, and so he can play only graceful tones. Sometimes he cuddles them to his ear with the gentlest of touches, and other times he swings them out with a free bow, with a quality that only the great can produce. Incidentally, he has one of the finest violins in the world. i i 1 Critical Evanston and North Shore people are cordially invited to enjoy the finer dining room service of The Orrington, which is now un·der direct hotel management. Not only is the dinin·g room available for regular meals, but it may also be· secured for banquets, dances, wedding parties, bridge parties · and group luncheons with every assurance of service. and food that measure up to the Orrington standards. Precision and Clarity He opened with Corelli's Sonata in A, which was beautifully executed. In the Frescovaldi, a "Pastoralle Gentile," he did what few violinists can do-played two melodies at the same time -question and answer-making both stand out individually. His own arrangement of Bach's "Chorale" from the Christmas cantata, 'vhich followed, had the solid tone, broad outline and life it calls for. A test for any violinist is the Schumann Sonata in D Minor, and yet Mr. Spalding made it p:o along almost wi!hout apparent effort. Technical passages ,,·ere played with precision and absolute clarity, while the singing tone and delicate pizzicati amazed one. Andre Benoist, his accompani t, had an important part in making the Schumann so successful. and he also was obliged to bow many times in acknowledgement of the appreciative applause. Plays Own Arrangement Mr. Spalding began the last group with his own arrangement of Chopin's lovely Nocturne in G, the first time this writer has heard it in the violin. Here again was grace and refinement. A very charming composition. 'fwo Hungarian dances by Brahms-Joachim, Sarasate's "Romance" and his "] ota Navarra" concluded the program. He had the rhythm of the dance, its flashes of gay colors, its sentimental moods and its freedom from constraint. Of course the audience demanded encores, and Mr. Spalding generously gave them-four that were the equivalent of another group of ~is program: the Turkish March from "Ruins of Athens," by Beethoven; the "Cortege," by Boulnager; a traP , scription of the famous Brahms "Lt laby," which must have been his ow i and a dance that sounded like a w, ~e of Kreisler.' All were the result r llr great art and a great artist. Wif r ' doubt, north shore folk liked Spalding. Hours-7:00 A. M. to 8:30 P. M.
