EXCELLENT as have been the series of Concerts given by the Club in past seasons, the committee claim that the following programme exceeds them all in attractiveness. Six Concerts are included instead of five as previously, and as the financial obligations entailed are heavier than ever before, the committee trust that members will not only give renewed support but also persuade their friends to become members. WEDNESDAY, 10th OCT. 1923 MADAME SUGGIA The World Famous 'Cellist "For beauty of tone. fire of temperament, and an almost visual clearness of design in the phrasing, no 'cello playing could surpass that of Madame Suggia."

WEDNESDAY, 14th NOV. 1923 BESSIE RAWLINS and (VIOLIN) HARRIET COHEN (PIANOFORTE) In a Recital of Modern Works Two of the most brilliant artists of the younger school

PROGRAMME (Copyright Annotations by A. Eaglefield Hull) I Quartet in D Flat Op. 15 1. Andante-Allegro 2. Presto accaciacato Dohnanyi (b. 1877) 3. Molto Adagio-Animato Besides being a famous and brilliant pianist, Dohnanyi makes substantial claims to consideration as a composer, especially of Chamber Music. His appointment in 1919 as President and Conductor of the famous Philharmonic Society at Budapest has stemmed for a time his flow of compositions which already amount to a considerable number, including piano pieces, operas, chamber-music and symphonies This Quartet has only three movements, but the first is a composite one in which slow and quick movements are alternated. It is not free altogether from a suggestion of Tschaikowsky, especially in the flowing second subject with a moving pizzicato bass. The second movement is more individual and characteristic, apart from a rather unfortunate suggestion at the opening of Wagner's "Valkyrie." The Finale opens with a sustained Adagio which is followed by a vigorous and spirited movement in which nearly all the previous subjects are marshalled with fine effect. This Quartet was last played at the Club by the Philharmonic Quartet on 13 December, 1922. Quartet II 1. Allegro moderato 2. Assez vif, très rythmé 3. Très lent 4. Vif et agite Maurice Ravel The two outstanding French composers of recent years are Debussy and Ravel. Although trained in Paris, Ravel was born sufficiently near the Pyrenees to reflect many of the Spanish traits in his music-the gay outlook on life, the absence of introspection, the sensitiveness to light and movement, to lively rhythms, and merry fancies, the eschewing of sentimentality, even of sentiment, etc. This epoch-making quartet was first performed at the Paris Schola Cantorum in March, 1904. Whereas the folk-song element in the first movement is common to Brittany and Provence as well as the Bas Pyrenees, the second movement is undoubtedly from the land of Gitanas, for the twanging of loose gut strings and the clacking of castanets are never absent from it. The languid nature of the third movement comes from some warmer clime than France, and the glitter and dazzle of the complex rhythms in the last movement takes us undoubtedly to the country of the sevillana and the zarzuela, of Velasquez, and Zuluaga-the Land of Joy.

Quartet No. 1 in G III Mozart Dedicated to Joseph Haydn Allegro vivace assai - Menuetto - Andante cantabile - Molto Allegro Those who are keen supporters of the folk-song movement should pause to consider the case of Mozart. Undoubtedly his art is woven on the fabric of Tyrolese folk-song, just as the music of Haydn is founded on the folk-music of Croatia or what we now call Jugo-Slavia. But there is not much actual folk-song left when Mozart has done with it-witness the well-developed first movement, the artistic play of chromatics in the Minuet, the elaboration of the Andante (rather dull work, this, I think) and the art with which the fugal form is so delightfully concealed in the swift tempo of the fourth movement.
