as conductor—original as his
music, coaxing, compelling, pleading,
urging, and obtaining such effects
from the men as obviously he alone
could. His arrangement of the fa-
miliar "Song of the' Volga Boatmen"
Is powerful and truly barbaric, fitting
the character of the text. The "Fire-
works" which come next is clever,
very clever; brilliantly orchestrated,
and might easily pass for a transcrip-
' tion of Paine's celebrated spectacle
I of "El Dorado." It is full of color
and achieves the most original and
startling effects and, from the very
nature of the mimetic sounds, found
I greatest favor with the audience. In
'the following "Scherzo Fantastique"
Stravinsky becomes the Henri Fahre
of music; the scherzo is a really love-
ly and melodious tone picture of the
activities of winged insect life and
owes some of its charm to the fact
(
that this is one of the least original
of the author's compositions. There
is a verse strong flavor of the influ-
ence of his early master, Rimsy-Kor-
sakoff, through which, however, the
impish and wilful young Igor is Peep-

mind, some of which must have as-
tounded the bearded old master. And
