MAUD POWELL'S MAGIC VIOLIN IS PLAYED IN LOG CATHEDRAL rreat Artist Visits Forestry Building and Wakes Echoes of Huge Audi Great Artt VtJJg Auditor8 witu Her Hare Genius FT ARTHUR A. GREENE. TO be sure the audience was small, but I doubt if ever any few people were so fortunate as to hear such a violin rcilal as was our privilege through the graclousness of Maud Powell, out at ihe Forestry building vesterdav afternoon. ' To begin at the beginning it must he understood that Maud Fowell Is ab solutely tha greatest woman violinist In the world; at least the ablest music al critics accord her first place. This Information is no information to music lovers, hut It Is worth bearing in mind nevertheless. Oir Monday she visited the Forestry building with a party of friend- and was so greatly Impressed with the beautv of that wonderful log temple that she became possessed with the idea that it would be a fine thing to plav her violin in that place. Miss Powell has played in Westminster Ab bey and In all the famous theaters and opera houses of the world, so she was quite naturally anxious to try out a new auditorium, especially one which so much impressed her as our wonder ful cabin out at the Kxposltlon grounds. So it was arranged that a few of us were to go out there and listen to this rare genius play her fiddle to the echoes of the wilderness which haunt the shadows of that impressive struc- turf. . . The vast structure was empty or visitors when we arrived, which was a thing to make the heart rejoice, and the delightfully unassuming little American woman, who has made two continents listen in rrofound admira tion to her fiddling, went Into the north irallervfand began playing Fio rlllo'i big study with Its marvelous organ effects. We who were at the re motest corner of the great building were overwhelmed with the dominant power and soul-swamplnsr lmpresslve nes of the composition, the artist who plaved It and the wonderful accoustlcs of the house built of logs. When iui last crescendo arose and echoed and re echoed through the navt,of.thfv,Catm,,: ral of logs we were silent; the little audience was awe-stricken. Then she came down to the main floor and after doing Vleuxtemp 'Al legro" she changed her mood and the strings of that Inspired Cremona com menced singing soft and low. dear old "Traeumerer which was ever be loved of us who are unschooled. Srhe played it with a mute and the tones were no more than whispers, but In the farthest end of the great building every note was distinct and clear. Misa Powell, who Is a poet as well, xptessed mjr aentlmanta when after - M - r flfi - - . . 1 x -;A ' U 0 SL' . i I I - C,si t Miss Maad Porrell. 111T A wards she said it was as though the soul of the violin were speaking to the rugged primal soul of the mighty logs and acknowledged at last Its fellow ship with the forest. That was the eerie feeling that we ail had. The violin was uttering the call of the wild, was pouring out its soul. All the pent up melody of that old Cremona, which goes back to 1776. seemed to come forth In a plaintive croon song. The long dead frontage of the long dead wood monarehs seemed to rustle and whisper hopeless love songs and. as the cadences died away, the heart of the violin seemed to break as breaks the heart of one who sees a loved one die. Then the vast room was still, still as the silence of dead melodies and we felt moved to speai: in whlsprs and walk on tiptoe. Only the wholesome smiles of Maud Powell, the genius who had set this spell upon us. served to bring us back to the fact that we had to catch the "W" car downtown and that it was time to be thinking of dinner. How ever, those of us who were fortunate enough to hear this remarkable little concert will cherish its memories as long as we are permitted to hear melo dy, to read poetry and to dream dreams.
