Henri Verbrugghen, Eminent Belgian Conductor, Leads Detroit
Symphony Orchestra. Schkolnik and King Play
Bach Concerto.
HE second guest cc nductor to appear with the Detroit
Orchestra since Mr. Gabrilowitsch's arrival in Detroit was
Henri Verbrugghen, the eminent Belgian conductor, now
living in Australia. From the very outset of the program Mr.'
Verbrugghen established himself as a virile and accomplished
conductor. Although he had arrived but two days before the
concert and had been given small chance for rehearsals, the
Belgian's reading of Brahms Second Symphony was one of the
finest. The audience seemed to be whole-hearted in their ad-
miration of his excellent reading, and he was accorded a genu-
ine ovation. His conducting of the Beethoven overture "Corio-
lans" was likewise of high order. The soloists of the after-
noon were Illya Schkolnik and William Grating King, who
played the Bach Concerto for two violins and string orchestra,
T

been said this season, as well as in
