THE Portland Symphony orchestra
which makes its Salem debut Wed
nesday night brings to the capital
a reputation for excellence unexcelled
by that of any major instrumental cn-s.-mole
in the annals of Oregon music.
The concert will be held at the Salem
high school auditorium. General admis
sion charges for the single seats which
are still available, are SI. 50. General
admission for the scries of two concerts,
it SI. 20. Tickets for seals in the re
serve section are $2.40 a piece.
That is the enthusiastic opinion of
critics,' professional and Ltherwise, who
were unanimous in the view that the
new organization was, after only a fort
night's rehearsing, a more polished and
capable group than any previous Port
land symphony orchestra.
Since its distinguished and brilliant
conductor, Werner Janssen, led the sym
phony in its opening concert ot the Port
land Symphony society's silver anniver
sary season November 3, the orchestra's
devotees have increased in numbers and
enthusiasm and the reviewers have
grown more and more lavish with their
praise.
Hilmar Grondahl, music editor of The
Oregonian, said of the oichestra's per
formance of Beethoven's "Eroica" sym
phony on the same program that it was
"more magnificent than this hall has
previously heard. Werner Janssen made
it abundantly clear that the orchestra for
which Portland has been waiting is at
hand both in body and spirit . . . Con
gratulations to Werner Janssen and his
ensemble."
Two weeks later Grondahl wrote, "The
orchestra has come a long way under
Werner Janssen. It already is better
than we had reason to hope for. There is
little reason to suppose that it has even
glimpsed its ultimate potentialities."
Music Editor Susie Aubrey Smith of
the Oregon Journal wrote of an earlier
concert, "Seldom has a Portland audi
ence showed such excitement over a
svmphonv program. The present orches
tra revealed the high duality of its mu
sicianship by playing an all-Brahms
program and playing it superbly."
The orchestra's Wednesday night con
cert will he followed by a second Salem
appearance February 18. Tickets have
been on sale at all leading music and
record stores in Salem.
