Raleigh Civic Music Club Presents
Leonard Pennario In Concert Here
Enthusiastic Audience Recalls
Pennario to Play Four Encores
Raleigh Civic Music Association
presented Leonard Pennario in a
concert at the Memorial Auditorium
Monday, November 6.
Mr. Pennario’s first numbers were
two sonatas, the B minor and the
G minor by Domenico Scarlatti.
Both of these pieces, written for the
harpsichord, were very charming and
reminiscent of a tinkling music-box.
The next piece Mr. Pennario
played was Jesv,, Joy of Manis De
siring, a hymn taken from a Bach
cantata. This was a very stately,
majestic number.
Following this Mr. Pennario pre
sented the Sonata in B flat minor,
Opus 35, by Chopin. The entire
piece was beautifully and powerfully
played. The first movement,
“Grave,” was very stormy and
smashing. The second movement,
“Scherzo,” was calmer and more
peaceful, but very brilliant. The
“Marche Funebre,” the third move
ment, about which the entire work
is supposed to have been built, was
sincere, quiet, emotional, and very
moving. The concluding movement,
“Presto,” was in strong contrast,
with a rippling, flashing tune. Schu
mann’s Scenes from Childhood were
Pennario’s next work. They are
short reflections of childhood, spell
binding and filled with dreams and
memories.
Variations on a theme of Paga
nini, Opus 35, by Brahms, was
played next. This difficult piano
piece combined extremes of heavy,
meditative music and delicate, re
fined music.
.^PTEH INTERMISSION
Canterbury Clubs
Hold Installations
Impressive Ceremony Installs
New Officers for Coming Year
Saint Mary’s Canterbury Club
and the Raleigh Canterbury Club
held a joint installation and con
secration service at the close of
a shortened evening prayer serv
ice in Saint Mary’s chapel Sun
day, November 5. The officers,
student worker and counselor, ad
visers, and committee chairmen
were installed at the service. Mem
bers of both clubs dedicated
themselves to the service and wor
ship of God.
After the Rev. Mr. Hughes con
cluded the regular service, he be
gan the consecration and installa
tion. He called the student Avork-
er and counselor, Avho lighted the
candle he was carrying, turned to
face the congregation, and said
his pledge. All other officers fol
lowed this procedure.
The Rev. Mr. Hughes addressed
the congregation with an invita
tion to consecrate themselves bv
saying together the covenant of
the Canterbury Club. Afterwards
the officers proceeded in a group
down the aisles of the church,
lighting the candles of the person
nearest the aisle in each pew.
After all candles had been lighted
and the benediction had been pro
nounced, the congregation joined
in the singing of “In the Cross of
Christ 1 Glory” and proceeded out
of the chapel.
Following the intermission Pen
nario returned to play the Prelude
in E fiat major, Opus 23, and the
Etude-Tableau, Opus 33, ISlo. 7, by
Rachmaninoff. The former of these
short ]>ieces Avas sober, searching,
and moody, Avhile the latter Avas
quick, light, and fleeting.
A modern number. Visions Fugi
tives, Opus 22, Nos. 7, 8, 17, 5, 9, io,
by P'l'okofieff, Avas Amry abrupt and
eccentric.
Debussy’s L’isle joyeuse, the next
number, Avas a romantic piece Avith
a pastoral type of melody. Another
romantic piece, Granados’ The Mai
den and the Nightingale, Avas sad,
plaintive and haunting.
The next number, Liszt’s Hunga
rian Rhapsody No. 12, contained
tAvo movements. The first, “Lassan,”
was sloAV and stately, Avhile “Friska,”
the second, Avas full of all the tradi
tional gypsy magic.
Pennario’s audience called him
back for four encores, the melan
choly Nocturne in F sharp major by
Chopin being the first. He next
played an original piece. The March
of the Lunatics, AV'hich Avas inspired
by an out-of-tune piano.
For his next encore Pennario of
fered another of his OAvn composi
tions, Midnight on the Newport
Cliffs, which pictured an ocean
storm in its original melody. Mr.
Pennario concluded his program
with the gay Waltzes from the Gypsy
Baron by Strauss.
