Symphony Event
Portland Symphony orchestra, wilh Theodore
Bloomficld conducting, will play its last concert
in Salem for the 1056-57 season, next Tuesday,
March 12, at 8:15 p.m. in the new Fine Arts audi
torium of Willamette university. Salem Symphony
society, local sponsors of these concerts, is ready
ing plans for their 1957-58 season, with concert
dates and soloist to be announced later.
Tuesday's program is as follows:
Overture. "L'ltaliana in
Algcri" Rossini
Concerto for Orchestra Bela Bartok
Intermission
Symphony No. 3 in
F Major Johannes Brahms
The Rossini music is the prelude to "The Itali
an Woman in Algiers." a clever comic opera.
Rossinian elegance and bubbling comedy blend in
this overture. It was first performed in 1813, in
Venice.
The showpiece of the evening, Bartok's "Con
certo for Orchestra," is, in the composer's own
words." .... a gradual transition from the stern
ness of the first movement and the lugubrious
death-song of the third to the life-assertion of the
last one." Commissioned by the Boston Symphony
orchestra towards the end of Bartok's life, it was
created with the condition that it would be dedi
cated to the conductor's wife, Mrs. Natalie Kous
sevitsky, and was assured of a first performance
by tho Boston Symphony orchestra. Born in Hun
gary in 1881. Bartok was living in New York at the
time of his death in 1945. He is considered one of
the greatcsl composers of contemporary music.
The extreme technical complexity of a great deal
of his "Concerto for Orchestra" demands that all
the principal nrdiestral players should be virtuosi
in their own rights.
Closing the evening is Brahms' Third Sym
phony, which has remained throughout the years
the least frequently performed of Brahms' four
works in this form. Reasons for this are difficult
to ascertain, although perhaps its quiet, peaceful
conclusion in contrast to the rousing codas of
Brahms' other symphonies is a contributing fac
tor. Vet the extraordinary beauty and sensitivity
of this F Major Symphony are without parallel in
Brahms' entire orchestral output.
Tickets are still on sale at Stevens & Son or at
the door at 7:30 the night of the concert.
The youth conservation department will be In
charge of the program for the meeting of the Sa
lem Junior Woman's club Monday evening at the
Salem Woman's club house. Miss Hattie J. Bratzel,
district attorney, will be the speaker.
Nominating committee for the coming year's
officers will be elected during the business session.
Co-chairmen for the program are Mrs. Forrest
Walker and Mrs. Clifford Bowder. Assisting them
wilt be Mesdames Donald Richardson. Ward A.
Paldnmus, Fred Olson and Frank M. Combs and
Miss Hetty Jean Bergner.
On the refreshment committee are Mrs. How
ard E. Elwood. chairman, and Mesdames Bernard
O. Grindle. Fred Olson, Robert Stevens. Robert
Wallace. Robert C. Engle. Merlin B. Marsh. Rich
ard S. Fry, Gordon B. Domogalla and Janet Tin
