It seems unfortunate that the adjectives in the English language have not been augmented sufficiently to adequately ton-, vey the impression of his colossal attain ments upon the minds of his hearers. So much had been said that sounded exag gerated as to bis art and his work that it was an agreeable surprise to find them more than Justified. A happy introduction to a long and won derfully interesting programme was the Beethoven sonata. Those who had ac knowledged his superiority in the tech nical realm were forced to admit before the close of this number that his inter pretation placed him -in the very front rank of the Beethoven exponents. The Chopin Sonata Opus 58, while not so well known as the Opus 35, still served to con vey to the audience his wealth of ro mantic feeling, his exquisite sense of Hone gradation, and his superb master' of dynamics. In response to numerous recalls he gave In his Inimitable fashion three dainty Chopin preludes. The following number embraced a trio of well-known Chopin compositions. The Nocturne was played with poetic charm, and a beautiful singing tone the 'Scherzo with an outburst of passionate force, never, perhaps, equaled heretofore, and the D flat valse contained a truly new meaning in. this giant's own arrangement. Acceding to a clamorous demand it was graciously repeated. The Schubert-Liszt Lindenbaum served further to Impress his audience with his marvelous pianissimo and the weird witchery of his trill. Probably the number to fasten itself upon, the memory of his appreciative lis teners most forcibly was the virtuoso's concert etude Paplllons. In this the in conceivable velocity of his magical tech nique reached Its supreme climax. Re demanded ii was taken at even a still more furious tempo. His limpid scale work, his rippling arpeggios, and the deli cacy of his staccato, simply overwhelmed his audience. The programme was brought to a con clusion by the pianist's own transcription and fantasie on waltz themes by Johann Strauss. Here the truth of the carica turist's impression of Rosenthal's multitu dinous hands recently published was strikingly brought to mind. It seemed impossible that he could have had any thing in reserve as a fitting tonal climax to his already tremendous programme, but as he built up crescendo upon cres cendo, thunderous tone volleys one after another, his audience fairly rose to him and at its conclusion demonstrated itself into an ovation seldom equaled on any occasion. One of the wonders of the occasion was that a mechanism of wood and steel could be so delicately and adequately responsive to both the most delicate of shadings and the 'stupendous muscular onslaughts of the master magician of the keys. A truly fitting finale was the Rosenthal appearance to the excellent series of con certs under the Steers-Coman direction, which commenced with the famous bari tone, and followed in order by the world's greatest contralto Schumann-Heink. then by Hartman, the famous Hungarian vio linist.
