6 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1919 THERE WAS PLENTY OF MUSIC ABROAD (Continued from Page Two) accustomed. Grandeur was present but lacking in depth and the effect of the whole orchestra in fortissimo was something like the shattering of much glass. The Scots have the word "slithering" which might describe it. No doubt this is due in part to mo- dern French orchestration, heard five or six of these concerts during the winter, at some of which Beethover and Schumann symphonies were well played and the sa pression always recurred.

No doubt the contrast sharpened the effect and heightened my appreciation, but Bach has to be well played and when the inspiration is present to the musician it is a labor of love as it was to these artists that afternoon. By the way, they did lots of Bach, Beethoven, Haydn, Mozart and Schumann at these and other good orchestra con- certs in Paris that winter and the chamber music recitals were past their tone.

Modern French compositions rather predominated on the orchestral pro- grams. / WHAT TO GIVE YOUR WIFE; OR A TIP FOR HUSBANDS Selecting a present for his wife | puzzles the average man.
