By RICHARD D. WERNER
The final concert of the
Civic Music series was pre
sented last night in the high
school auditorium to a less
than full membership. Those
who did not attend, missed a
most enjoyable evening of
musical entertainment.
Robert Rudie and his erouD
of musicians and singers of
fered good music, well played
and bouvantlv Dresented.
j Opening with "Symphony No.
114" by Haydn, it was soon
I apparent that here were really
qualified musicians under
able direction. Of particular
competence and skill were the
horn players. These two young
men demonstrated such a
command over their instru
ments, especially in the ex
tremely high registers de
manded by Haydn, that 'it
seemed almost incredible. The
violins, two firsts and two
seconds, performed the dif
ficult task of being perfectly
in tune. This may seem to be
what should be expected, but
intonation on a string-bowed
instrument is a constant prob
lem and in a large group of
players, a composite is pro
jected which the ear readily
accepts. But when two players
play the same part, any devi
ation is at once apparent.
Both first and second violins
last night were never guilty of
any deviation.
The viola, cello and bass
were noteworthy for their
smooth tone, plus warmth.
These people like to play.
Also most excellent were the
flute and clarinet. Even Qual
ity of tone was achieved by
both over the whole register.
The star of the Sinfonietta
was the harpist, Cynthia Otis.
Brilliant technique and nu
ance control were evident
throughout. Her playing of
the "Introduction and Alle'e-
ro by Ravel was the high
spot of the program.
In a scene from Mozart's
"Marriage of Figaro." Phvllis
Williams, soprano, and Robert
Kirkham, baritone, were
heard. By verbal explanation
before and during the scene
an attempt was made toward
conesion, but it didn t ouite
come off. The music, always
melodic and scintillating," was
not enhanced by the singing.
Miss Williams has a restricted
range and seldom could be
heard in the lower register.
Mr. Kirkham had the same
shortcoming, but the soprano
had more warmth and quality,
whereas the baritone bor
dered on the brassy. They did
better in the Rogers and
Music For Mother by . . .

After intermission Mr. Ru
die made a change in the pro
gram and combined his own
solo violin playing with Miss
Otis solo playing with a work
by Saint Saens. Very pleasant
music. The programmed
"Gypsy Airs" by Sarasate, Mr.
Rudie did at the end of the
concert as an encore.
Before playing Strauss'
"Blue Danube" waltz, the
conductor invited members
of the audience to dance, and
one couple very bravely did
so. He explained that it was
the very first time it had ever
occurred, which was verified
by several of the orchestra
members later.
The Sinfonietta was an en
joyable musical offering of
entertainment and good show
manship a fitting close to a
good series season. Sorry you

German Twin Sisters From Poland
Back Together After 13 Years Apart
C-li T i fii ith n-i I i -
Salt Lake City irjt Two
German twin sisters, sepa
rated 13 years ago in war
ravaged Poland, were headed
for a reunion Saturday thanks
to the observant eye of a San
Francisco newspaper reader.
Friday night, Mrs. Alexan
dra Agah Wegner and her sis
ter (Za Za) Sauer were
brought todgether by long
distance telephone, the first
contact they have had since
Sophie became separated from
the rest of her family in Po
land when the girls were 15.
Recently, Sophie, now a res
ident of Miami, Fla., learned
her sister might be alive in
the United States. When she
announced plans to sell her
only possession, a Piper Cub
plane, to finance a country
wide search for her sister, the
San Francisco News carried a
picture of the woman Sophie
and her story.
A reader saw the picture,
notified United Press her sis
ter was working in Salt Lake
City as a waitress. :
Sister Identified
Contacted in Florida, Za Za
said it definitely was her. sis
ter after hearing the nick
name Agah mentioned. Later,
Alexandra saw the newspa
per picture of Sophie and
said "Yes, it's her."
Now Sophie plans to keep
her plane and fly here for a
reunion.'
Alexandra came to Ameri
ca a year ago after marrying
ex-GI Hart Wegner in Vienna:
She returned to Vienna two
weeks ago to obtain a regular
visa to remain in the U.S. and
at that time discussed her
'"lost" sister with their moth
er, whose name also is Sophie
Sauer.
The girls' father, Johan
Sauer, was born in Poland of
German parents. He was
working for the German em
bassy in Poland at the time of
the separation. He died four
years ago in Vienna.
