January 10, 1043 PAGE SIX HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON Whirlwind Pianist Thrills Audience Witold Malcuzynslci Instant Favorite With Klamath Folks in Friday Night's Performance Witold Melcuzynskl, the young Polish pianist who per formed on the Pelican itage last night as the second of a cries of concerts brought here by the Klamath Community Concert association, lived up to rave notices which have flood ed the country since his debut at Carnegie hall this past year. From the opening notes of the Beethoven numbers, to the last echo of the second encore, Chopin's Etude, op. 25, No. 11, Malcuzynski held his audience as few artists have done in bur town. The youthful Malcuzynski, last pupil of Ignace Jan Pader ewski, displayed a remarkable technique and an amazing en ergy, power, largeness of style. The program had periods of grandeur, interpretive individ uality, emotional concentra tion. He is armed with notewor thy technical equipment, a warm singing tone, a wide range of dynamics, with fing ers fleet and sure. Those who love their Chopin more than anything else .in the wide field of music, were thrilled to hear the Sonata In B flat minor, opus 38, and the third group which included the lovely Nocturne in F sharp major, Waltz in C sharp minor, Etude to C minor, Ma zurka in F minor end Scher zo in B flat minor. During intermission even those who admit to a bit of weariness to an entire program of piano, Violin, or voice, had to acknowledge that here was a young man who could play on Indefinitely without tiring hla audience. Much of Mal cuzynski's charm was In his at titude toward the house as compared to the Terrible Tam pered Mr. Bangs who, last year, did not please the audi ence one whit and the audi ence, in turn, felt that tt did not please him. But Mr. Mal cuzynski took care of that. ; Paderewski's Nocturne and Cracovienne Fantastlque open ed the second half of the pro gram followed by Lists' Span ish Rhapsody, a number which expanded into a brilliant cli ' max. The favorite Waltz E Minor, Chopin, along with the final encore from Chopin, ended a thrilling evening. ; Said Mark Schubart In New York's PM, "Malcuzynski has just come from South America, where one critic hailed him as successor to Paderewski. - That's a heavy mantle to have handed ' down to you.- But it may not be long before he'U be ready to carry it." .
