Dohnanyi Concert afpisinore Monday Is Second Event Redfern Mason, who does such Y" unfailing fine critical work on the ;an Francisco Examiner, contrib i ,ts this exceedingly Interesting II review of the Ernst Ton Dohnanyi ronoert. On Monday, January 3, Dohnanyi, one of the great musi cal personalities of the time, will in Salem at the Elsinore thea ter. The review mentioned fol lows: The Dohnanyi recital in Scottish Rite hall was stimulating and il luminative.

The rest of,' the program was j. devoted to Dohnanyi's own-corn- positions.. They; included a Pas- sacaflia, his "Ruralia Hungarian" and C major rhapsody, and some shorter works. I . . .. The feature of Dohnanyi's writ ing which first catches the atten ivu is the absence, of the Romany Afecular which is so apparent fin te Liszt Rhapsodies. Here are no jagged rhythms a la czar das and no use of the minor scale with the raised fourth. - Dohnanyi would probably, tell you'that these characteristics are not, truly Hun- Mrs. Allen Is a prominent fra ternal and church worker in Port land.
