Tuesday, March 15,, 1955 Reviewer Has High Praise For Concert by Brailowsky By RICHARD D. WERNER It would not be difficult to be- ! come extravagant in praise of Alexander Brailowsky, pianist, artist, technician, interpreter, colorist see what I mean? He has it all, and he showed it all last night at the Civic Music association concert. He plays the piano as a pian ist soft and loud, and all the dynamics in between. One is conscious at all times that it is a piano not an orchestra or a band. , An artist ne plus ultra. Plays For Music's Sake As one of the more discerning of the younger musical set re marked, "He plays for the sake of the music and not because he is giving a concert." And this slight, unassuming man gave of his art, through his art, an eve ning many of us will long re member. Especially was this true in the Bach-Busoni "Chaconne" and the Schumann "Carnaval." The "Sonata in D Major" by Scarlatti, the "Impromptu" by Faure and "Hungarian Rhapsody No. 12" by Liszt, called for a Obituaries ALBERT CLARINGTON Albert C.

A real joy to be showered with this purest of piano music. Would Like More Debussy We would have welcomed more Debussy. The "Reflections in the Water" were as beautiful as sunlight playing on a prism. The coloring brought forth by Mr. Brailowsky was enchanting. The "Allegro, Barbaro" of Bartok cannot be called music, really. Bartok was more inter ested in sounds and their juxta position than their combining and blending. But the virility of the rhythms were refreshing, and they came from the Hungar ian soil. . i After this heavy concert, Mr. Brailowsky was most generous with encores by Chopin and Men delssohn.
