CHASE Program Schubert-Sonata in A major (Op. posth.) Busoni-Toccata: Preludio; Fantasia, Ciacona Busoni-Berceuse Beethoven-Sonata in C minor,'IOp. III "I don't like my music intellec- tual," exclaimed one lady after the Rudolf Serkin concert in Hill Aud. last evening. "I just like to be lulled by sweet, emotional sounds." This lady, unfortunately, must have been disappointed with Mr. Serkin's playing, because he cer- tainly does not dwell on tonal caress. Rather, he aims to drive the notes to reveal their place in the meaning of the music, which, after all, is an intellectual matter of recreating its form through its content of harmony, rhythm, tex- ture, color, and melody. And with Mr. Serkin especially, the playing is so intense that each note is attacked with a defining bite. With the Schubert sonata Serk- in was not at his best: the play- ing, particularly in the first move- ment, was too ponderous and un- comfortable, and the overall grace of the Schubertian line suffered from an absence of cantabile play- ing. The climactic portions in the second movement afforded the best moments here. Not until the Fantasia section of the Toccata did the fire of the man show through to spark the music. The Busoni works, per- formed in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of their com- poser's birth, are not great music, but certainly make for pleasant listening. The contrasting moods of the impetuous Toccata and lul- laby-like Berceuse showed good programming. During the Toccata, needed to get in all the notes; in the Berceuse, Serkin achieved a lovely effect by holding down for long stretches the sustaining pedal to suggest an atmosphere of ethereal repose. Because Serkin has somehow been labeled a foremost interpre- ter of Beethoven's music, those who sat through the more unfa- miliar Schubert and Busoni works with strained tolerance perked up their ears to hear what the pianist had to say in the Op. 111. Making the most of sudden dynamic con- trasts, of staccato vs legato at- tacks, and imbuing the music with rhythmic drive, Serkin said a lot. The loud, full, percussive chords, which had little place in the Schu- bert, and the singing, cantabile playing, which was missed in the Schubert, both found their proper perspective in the Beethoven son- ata. Serkin again revealed his af- finity for the music of that com- TUESDAY, MARCH 8 4:00 p.m.-Jurij Borys of the Department of Political Science at the University of Stockholm, Sweden, will speak on "Changes in the Composition of the Soviet Political Elite" at 200 Lane Hall. 4 p.m.-Jerome Badanes. poet and an associate of the Free Uni- versity, will read contemporary poetry and discuss its social im- plications in the Multipurpose Rm. of the UGLI.
