interest is being shown in the "Poem
of Ecstasy." Kussevitskv has already IF
played it in Boston, Stokowski in $
Philadelphia and it is announced by ,
Stock in Chicago. Dying in his mid- p
thirties, Scriahin's life was not long 0
enough to fulfill the extraordinary
promise of his youth but the music
he has left stamps him as a genius
and this "Poem of Ecstasy" is in •
every sense of the word a master-
piece.
Mr. Courboin will also play three
solos for the organ, Bach's Fantasia
and Fugue in G minor, a sketch in
flat by Schumann and Franck's
Third Choral in A minor. Other items 2
on the program will be the Prelude
to Saint-Saen's "The Deluge," in
which the violin solo will he played ,
by Mr. Schkolnik, and Enesco's First p
