Citizen H. J. Pfnchon is preparing
to leave for the far west. Come 4th
of July we don’t know who will take
hig place as master of the fireworks
display. W'e will miss his kindly com.
ments couched in the style of the Jap
anese schoolboy.
The Civic Club food sale held in
Lewis’ market last Saturday wa
an unqualified success. Mrs. V. J.
Lee, Mrs. A. McN. Blair and Miss
Mary Richardson were most zealous
workers.
Frederic Balazs, the young soldier
violinist who played Monday night at
the fourth concert of the Library
series, prvwed to be as fine a musi.
cian as one is likely to hear. He is a
"jomplete master of his craft. Bowing,
tone and key were superbly right.
Besides his splendid musicianship,
Balazs has a delightful personality.
He charmed the audience with his
simplicity, his dignity, his youth.
Both he and his accompanist, Clemens
Sajidresky, completely won the hearts
of the audience of around 150 peo.
pie. Seldom does one hear two artists
20 perfectly attuned; if the soloist
excelled, so, in like degree, did the
accompanist. His touch, his interpre.
tation, his sympathetic collaboration
with the soloist, showed the true mu
sician.
The concert opened with Mendel
ssohn’s Concerto in E.minor, a famil.
inr selection. Balazs, who has only his
third.best violin with him in the
Army, feared the second movement
might sound harsh, but it was ren.
dered in sweet and true tones. The
andante, with its gay marching tune,
brought rounds of applause. Both
violinist and accompanist synchron
ised perfectly and played as one in
strument.
The soloist’s great mastery was
shown in his unaccompanied presen.
tation of Bach. His Mozart menuett
had a definitely Hungarian lilt to the
tempo that turned the stately dance
into a witching gyps.v tune. In Pa.
franni’s “Caprice,” the artist demon,
strated his great virtuosity.
After the first movement of Dohw
n.nnyi’s “Ruralia Hungarica,” Balazs
stopped to give credit to Sandreski by
i-ayLng, “This is a most difficult
piano accompaniment” (applause
oroke out) “and also quite difficult
for the corporal who is turning pages.”]
The violonist resisted the tempta
tion to sentimentalize Rimsky-Kor.
akow’s “Song of India’’ and made the
much.hackneyed tune fresh and pure,
lacking in passion. The remainder of
this group was rendered lightly,
humorously and with true precision.
The ever.popular “Flight of the
Bumblebee’’ and Caprice by Von
Gossec as encores closed the even,
•.ng which was acclaimed the "best
\et” of the current concert series.
