How to do this was one of Schumann's secrets. It is safe to say that no matter how familiar you may be with this exultant "Fantasy Piece" you will gain added understanding of its significance when you learn from Mr. Dunhill's annotations the cir cumstances in which it was written, and see its amazing kinship in spirit to D.

Chopin's "Raindrop Prelude" Out of the vast reservoirs of his familiarity with Chopin's life and work G. C. Ashton Jonson has brought to the opening paragraphs of this roll just the bits of detail needed to invest this music with the intensity of meaning that it undoubtedly had for its composer. Then, as the music unfolds, its progress from tranquility downward into gloom, its sojourn there amidst ghostly phantoms, and finally its emergence into light again, is pointed out in running comments so compelling that the listener seems, himself, to have lived through some terrible crisis of the soul.

*Bizet's "L'Arlesienne" (2 rolls) "To separate this music from the drama, (says Philip Hale, in substance), is like detaching the color from a painting." In these two rolls the music, written by Bizet to accompany Daudet's ~rama, ."The Maid of Aries," is restored to its proper setting. The story of the drama is told In the Introductory paragraphs. Then as the music begins, the listener finds the accompanying action unrolled before him, pictured vividly in Mr. McNaught's running comments, and adding to the music a well nigh heart- breaking poignancy.

A middle section brings a bolder, more sonorous utterance, as of a quickly passing summer storm, after which the airy delicate melody and the contemplative mood of the opening part return, tinged with a touch of wistful longing or regret. The whole charming mood picture is conveyed with mas' terly skill as well as with poetic feeling.
