Saturday. evening, .Marci 14. This is for tbe benefit of the unemployment fund, ý and Mr * Spalding has graciously off ered tô give bhis services. without charge, It wiIl be remembered tbat M r. *Spalding won. an ovation when be appeared Wn tbe Artist-Recital series : a year ago, for bis peisoftality and aftistry imbues- bis music with ,a subtle distinction *wbicb elevates it yet makes it appealing to ereryone., The Artist-!Recital series is entircly civie 'and pbilantbropic, and during seven yrears bas gien the commu-, uity the very finest artists at nominal subscription .f ees. Since- the Iturbi COteft was fthe last for tliis smiaon, 8ubscr bers are asked to send teir checks to Mrs. Bessie Grant, W .in- uetka State Banik, so that tbeyma be sure of having tickets for next' year. The waiting list is long, io)r thç popularity of these conce rts bas grown enormously each year. Tn spite of the long waiting list, the Winnetka Music club, wbicb spon- sors the series, bas continued to. present its. artists in the intimate and acoustically nerf ect small auditorium By Ruteda 1- Pretm.I Jose Iturbi thrilled the patrons of the Artist-Recital series last Monday evening at New Trier H-igh school with his pianistic virtuosity.. His pro- gram showed him in a variety of t'one and tempi, ini order to demonstrate, that he, was at home in whatever. type of composition lie cared to play. The' audience was enthusiastic and, pounded palms vociferobusly after each numbeC. Mr. Iturbi b as- a -wAy of, endingý most of the compositions, witb his' right armi flying üp into the.' air dramatically, a gesture bound to-, bring down a' stormn of applause, éspecially when it is followved hy a poeful chord.j It is doubtful whter even Rachmaninoff can get the. volume out of, piano strings that Itu.rbi gets-he comes down on the keys fromi a foot above them and the resuit' is -an .enormous ,tone. which- thunders out over the audience in a manner to make listeners gasp. Iturbi began bis -programi with the Mozart A major sonata, whrh Art- ist-RecitalI patrons heard dance out uinder the musical fingers of- Wanda Landowska on the harpsicbord a fev; years ago. ýAs played by Iturbi, the sonata basmore depth and richness,- virility andwàrmth. It is, therefore, not Mozart playing that We are *ac- customed to, and whether one pr efers. It to the silvery and sparkling Mozart- of Landowska is a matter of taste. After some sustained tonal work *fi a Schumann "Arabesque," Iturii plunged into the B3rahms variation s on a Paganini theme.
