MUSIC NOTES
By Hermann hoexter.
An immortal continental poet who
was also distinguished as critic, ex-
pressed himself in no uncertain terms
to his own generation over a hundred
years ago in words that have lost
none of their significance Or value
when applied to contemporary art.
"Go to the poets," he wrote, "if you
wish to gather the material to assist
you in forming a critical estimate
of the work of a new poet". and. he
might have Willed, go In the musi-
cians it you waste to arrive at a sen-
sible appreciation of the labors of a
brother musician, This by way of
Introduction to a resume of the crit-
ical utterances Of New York's musical
pundits apropos the recent visit of
our own superb orchestra to the east-
ern metropolis.
The concensup or opinions culled
from the Manhattan dailies, boiled
and skimmed, would have us believe
that the Detroit Symphony Orchestra
is a very fine laxly of musicians In-
deed, unusually responsive to the ex-
cellent leadership of Its pianist-con-
ductor, Mr. Oeslp GabrIlowitsch. This
man, a poet by the grace of heaven,
can do no harm to the composers
whose male Mt elects to Interpret,
and therefore his reading of the scores
was enjoyed by these critics, although
they disclaim the discovery of any-
thing approaching the sensational or
novel in his performances. They unite
Is commending and congratulating the
city of cafeterias and garages upon
the achievements of its splendid or.
chestra, which brings it, the city,
a within the pale of eastern culture.
So it becomes a matter of interest
to record the reports which have come
In from New York musicians who are
not paid critics. and such unsolicited
personal appreciations which continue
to bring Joy to those who have the
best interests of the orchestra closest
at heart. These are unanimous In
their appraisal of the wonderful mu-
MC which the Detroltere provided at
their eastern concert, and almost in-
sistent In their opinion that In our
orchestra America now has its repre-
sentative body of musicians, as it
has In Its leader. the most magnetic,
Inspired, and authoritative conductor.

The program which was presented
at Carnegie hall contained selections
with which the local subscribers are
quite familiar: Weber's "Oberon"
overture, the Brahma' symphony in
C minor, and the Strauss "Don Ju-
an" tone-poem. Mr. Gabrilowitsch Is
preeminently a romanticist, whose
polished and poetic interpretations of
the Schumann and Chopin pianoforte
classics are abiding models of their
kind, Therefore Weber, the leader
of Romanticism as applied to German
opera, receives at Mr. Gabrilowitsch's
hand a reading individual, finely con-
ceived, highly colored, exquisitely ex-
ecuted. Thu critics wrote: there is
nothing of novelty in the performance
of this overture: the musicians say,
the manner in which Gabrilowitsch
works up his climaxes is simply won-
derful: such delicate shading, such
subtle development of motive, such
brilliant exposition of the compoiers
Intentions, is truly marvelous. And
then your men! Your horns are the
fittest in the country, your wood.
winds are superb! Such a combina-
tion Is simply irresistible! Again the
critics wrote: Mr. Gabrilowitach
takes many liberties with the tempi
of Brahms, which can be excused on-
ly by the necessity of preventing
Brahma from becoming too academic.
The musicians, however, and the big
audience gave the orchestra and the
conductor an ovation at the close of
this magnificent symphony. Because
never before had they heard the real
beauties of the Brahma score so of-
fectively set forth, now so tenderly,
now so stupendously enunciated. Mr.
Gabrilowitsch is a tonal architect, he
Is a builder who assigns to the last
!lone cat in the musical mosaic part
of the fundamental conception of the
designer. It Is not only In the sep-
arate movements of the symphony
that this ability is featured. but rath-
er in the authoritative reading of the
whole that Mr. Gabrilowitsch disclos-
es his brilliant and matured art. The
composer )(nows at the beginning just
how he wishes to close his symphony,
and this thought. this !noel this
scheme In color and dynamics Is trans-
ferred to the musicians and to the
audience the moment the conductor
raises his baton. Critics and audi-
ence sitting at the hack of the con-
ductor have no other way to judge
of the tremendous magnetism he ex-
erts upon his men other than by the
results he obtains through the medi-
um of the music. But the musicians
will tell you that In hie reading, in
his conducting, Mr. Gabrilowitach Is
as inspiring as he Is inspired, that
his entletalasm is contagious, and that
in securing certain effects from the
faintest pianissimo to the moat over-
whelming fortissimo. his powers are
truly supernormal, almost psychic.

Furthering their reputation
for

ple's Society of Temple Beth El will

19th, at which time several unique

The second "Oriental Party" which

the first one held last year, promises
to be even more delightful than the
one of last year.
The "Chinese raffle," the reward
of which will bo prizes for the lucky

Everything from decorations to re-
freshments will be carried out in a

The remarkable results obtained in
the reading of Brahma are again at-
tained in Mr. Gabrilowitsch's spirited
and highly flavored presentation of
the sensuous beauties of the Strauss
score. The fascinating and reckless
philanderer of Lerma!' poem lives in
the music of the German master as
this Is played by our conductor. The
critics wrote: the violins lack trans-

PHILOMATHIO DEBATING
was followed by a comprehensive gen-
eral discussion.
In accord with the times, the Philo-
mathic Debating Club has turned the
spotlight of its discussions on im-
plore serious questions affecting labor.
At last Sunday's meeting the question
for debate was: Resolved, That immi-
gration into the United States be re-
stricted for a term of five years. The
affirmative skillfully brought out the
evil effects of unrestricted immigra-
tion on the community in general, and
labor in particular. However, L.
Gurowitch and Ben Safir, of the nega-
tive, refuted their arguments so vigor-
ously, and in addition introduced
strong constructive negative argu-
ments, that the decision went to them
by a comfortable margin. The debate
For next Sunday the debate is: Re-
solved, That the movement for the
closed shop should receive the support
of the American public. The affirma-
tive team is J. Fineman and L. Roo-
ens•eig; their opponents are T.'Shul-
man and B. Safir. The principle at
issue is one which is engaging the at-
tention of students of industrial con-
ditions throughout the country. Both
sides are making full use of the propa-
ganda being circulated both for and
against the closed shop and an excel-
lent debate is anticipated.
The Philomathic again availed it-
self of the facilities of the Shaarey
Zedek Synagogue building last San-
day. Arrangements have not yet been
made with the new management of
the Talmud Torah building for the
rental of the usual meeting place; and
unless this is done during the week
the next meeting, Sunday, Dec. 19,
will also be held at the Shaarey Zedek.
