He played it neatly.The fast passages were clean" and accurate, the slow passages were flowing and lyricaL The whole was nicely sculptured. But there seemed to be a coolness, a detachment on the performer's part he never got involved to the point that he really plumbed the depths of the music.

Here Mr. Zenge's attention to accuracy payed off. He didn't assault his audience with a barrage of wrong notes, a lamentable habit among manv performers of Bach. The playing was spirited and lively in the "allegro" and "presto" movements; lyric yet exciting in the "andante" movement Here the performer got all the way to the meat of the music For this reviewer's money, Mr. Zenge would have been wise to reverse the order of the first two numbers then 7H FT M Am 'emda Stallion Performs an 'Air Above The Ground' . . . Lippizans Coming to Durham Sunday. Famed Horses To Perform By ERICA MEYER DTH Staff Writer Some of the most beautiful horses in the world are coming to North Carolina. The famous Lippizan stallions are being sponsored by the Exchange Club of West Durham. The pure white Lippizans perform intricate measured formations and great leaps and plunges with trained grace. They are the "ballet dancers of the horse world." This breed was created for the Hapsburgs, Austria's royal family. Traditionally, only nobles serving with their armies were given Lippizans to ride. It's a rare breed and no more than a few hundred have ever been alive at any one time. The Lippizan population was particularly low in Austria during the last part of World War II. Performances ceased during war time. Russia had captured that area and the horses were starving. They were saved from total extinction when evacuated by a courageous group of men out from under Russian noses. This dramatic story was told in Walt Disney's "The Miracle of the White Stallions." One of the men who helped take the horses to safety is Professor Ottomar Herrman. He will be starring with them in Durham. The most famous part of the stallions' performance is the high, beautiful "airs above the ground." It was once used to terrify foot soldiers but is now presented only for its loveliness. Training the horses to do this is almost a lost art; Professor Herrman is one of the few men in the world who can. His family has been associated with the Lippizans for 300 years The horses will be at Durham Memorial Stadium at 3:00 on Oct. 13. Advance tickets can be obtained by writing P.O. Box 2913 in Durham. Advance tickets are: Reserved seats, 4f3.0X),GeneraJ, Admission, $2.00 for adults and $1.00 for children. At the door they will be $3.50, $2.50 and $1.25. Durham is the only North Carolina appearance the Lippizans are planning. Before this tour, the only place the horses had ever been seen was in their native Vienna.

Reminiscent of the recent P.J., this film stars Kirk Douglas as a cop whose belief is that "hands are made for shooting, punching, holding drinks and caressing dames," according to Varsity. Also featuring Eli Wallach and Sylva Koscina as, respectively, his attorney-boss and the "body" he's assigned to "guard." Variety calls it "slughappy," with the "plot wavering uncertainly at times."

A well-cast, carefully-directed study of eight Vassar girls during the 30's. the Schubert might have been more effective. Intermission came and went and Mr.Zenge launched into the Chopin "Barcarolle", Opus 60. He evidently feels a great deal of empathy with Chopin. He not only kept up with the composer's notes, he also moved with the music. Occasionally conducting himself at the keyboard, he gave the audience a Barcarolle that was at the same time accurate and moving. The audience approved. Mr. Zenge's final number was Leon Kirchner's Sonata (1948). This was far and away the most difficult number onthe program, and as a consequence Mr. Zenge missed more notes than he had earlier. But even so he didn't miss many. He played the three movement piece without pause, thus keeping the audience slightly on edge never allowing them tc relax. This was probably what JCirchner had in mind, for the performance came off with great nervous intensity and quite successfully. In fact the concert as a whole was quite successful. Mr. Zenge is a more than competent pianist-his best moments are very fine indeed. His interpretation of Bach in particular is something which should not be missed, His audience certainly approved of what he was doing. The only pity is that the audience wasn't bigeer.
