Critical Audience Approves
Portland Symphony Music
It ii regrettable that the
Portland svmphnny orchestra
U to make but single appear
ance in Salem this season, for
the performance ol the musi
cian from the metropolii, un
der the expert guidance of
Arthur Fiedler, at the Salem
high achool auditorium Tues
day night, wu all that any
critical audience could ask.
The program, featuring Han
del, Haydn, Dvorak and
Tschalkowsky, with musical
novelty by Walter Piston
thrown in for good measure,
was well balanced, and not

too difficult for the average lis
tener. Those present tor the
symphonic treat constituted
about the average-sized Salem
audience for a program of this
nature probably not suffi
cient to warrant return en
gagement The "Royal Firework Music"
suite by Handel, originally
written for an orchestra of 40
trumpets, 20 horns, 16 oboes,
18 bassoons, S sets of kettle
drums and flutes and fifes, was
later recast by Sir Hamilton
Harty for the modem sym
phony group. It was entirely
pleasing, especially the "men-
uetto". One could speculate
concerning the production
when given under the original
score.
The "Symphony No. 81 in C
Major" was a typical Haydn
production lovely in its mel
ody and the variations that
were introduced during the
four parts.
"The Incredible Flutist" by
Piston, native of Maine, is a
descriptive number that intro
duces the talents of the entire
orchestra. It was composed
for presentation during a Bos
ton Pops orchestra program by
Fiedler in 1038. The "arrival
of the circus" portion was en
livened by whistles and calls
from the orchestra personnel,
who entered into the situation
with considerable enthusiasm.
Two Slavonic dances by
Dvorak, and Tachaikowsky's
"Caprice io Italics", concluded
the evening's performance in
spite of continued efforts ef
the audience for an encore.
The dance No. T in C minor,
one of tin more familiar works
of the Prague-born composer,
with its contrasting moods,
may well have been the high
spot of the evening, although
the Tschaikowsky number that
concluded the performance, de
scribed as a "bundle of Italian
folk songs", most certainly
could not be overlooked.
Conductor Fiedler, who re
sponded to repested curtain
calls, succeeded in drawing the
best from his musicians with
out resorting to violent gestures.
