Termed Unique Program By MUSIC CRITIC The fourth concert of the fourth season of the Symphony Players of Chicago at New Trier hall Tuesday evening, January 12, was as well at- tended as any of its predecessors, which means that there were only two or three empty chairs in the entire hall, main floor and balcony. The program was, we believe, unique, in that one number filled the first half of the program. This was Tschaikow- sky's famous Fifth Symphony in E mi- nor. It was played with a feeling for its various moods and surprising rhythms that has become characteristic of this remarkably fine organization. Although the program notes stated that this work contains an "underlying dra- ma of tragedy and hopeless fate," still, judging from the spontaneous and vigorous applause, it had a stimulating effect on the audience. An encore was demanded and given--an Andante Can- tabile from another of Tschaikowsky's great symphonies. The second half of the program of- fered three interesting pieces--Intro- duction to Act III, of Spinelli's "A Bas- so Porto," the Intermezzo II from Wolf Ferrari's "Jewels of the Madon- na," and two of Moskowski's popular Spanish Dances. These pieces formed a pleasing contrast to the rather serious symphony which formed the first half of the program. The afternoon concert at 4 o'clock this same day was very successful. The feature of the occasion was the appear- ance as violinist of Miss Katherine Hamilton of Winnetka. Miss Hamil- ton played a violin concerto for violin and orchestra by Mendelssohn with marked skill and poise. North shore people take a particular and pardonable pride in the artistic successes of those 'whom they have known so long and whose progress they have watched with such interest.
