Ilya Schkolnik, concertmaster of the orchestra for 25 years, will be assisting artist for the eve- ning. Mr. Schkolnik is a native of Russia and comes from a fam- ily of musicians. His most illus- trious teacher was the Belgian Cesar Thomson and, after a CUM laude graduation from the Royal Conservatory in Brussels, young Schkolnik toured the European continent with enormous success•. He has been with the Detroit Symphony since 1919, having been brought to Detroit by Ossip Gabrilowitsch, and he is proud of the fact that he has been an American citizen for more than two decades. The Beethoven Con- certo for Violin and Orchestra, selected by Mr. Schkolnik, is uni- versally recognized as the great- est work of its time. It was writ- ten by Beethoven during one of his happiest periods and it bristled with such new ideas and technical difficulties for that time that it was seldom attempted un- til that great virtuoso Joachim rescued it. To begin the program for the evening, Karl Krueger will conduct the Respighi ar- rangement of the Bach Passcag- lia. This form of composition, derived from an ancient stately dance, probably. of Spanish ori- gin, based on a dignified figure appearing invariably in the bass. "Don Juan," the first of Strauss tone poems to be published, will be given a hearing on the third, and so enthusiastically were the Strauss numbers of Mr. Krueger and Miss Lawrence received on Jan. 27 that many requests have come in for more music by that composer.
