URITSKY and SEIGEL, Mr. ZARETSKY, and Ms. BABCOCK Baldwin piano Please exit to your left for supper following the concert. The performers appreciate your not smoking during the concert. Week 10 Johannes Brahms Sonata No. 2 in A for violin and piano, Opus 100 Some composers have maintained that the violin is the instrument that comes closest to reproducing the singing quality of the human voice. Whether or not Brahms ever espoused this view, his violin sonatas give tacit assent: they are among the most lyrical of all his chamber compositions, and the first two, at least, emphasize this fact by actually quoting from his own Lieder. Brahms spent the summer of 1886 in the splendor of Switzerland, on the shores of Lake Thun, a place that proved to be so congenial to his mood that he returned for the two following summers. His first stay saw the completion of three chamber works: the second cello sonata, Opus 99, the second violin sonata, Opus 100, and the third piano trio, Opus 101.

WORCESTER Thirty-first Season, J9H-J9J2 MAX FIEDLER, Conductor frogramm* of % FIRST CONCERT WITH HISTORICAL AND DESCRIP- TIVE NOTES BY PHILIP HALE TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 28 AT 8.00 i COPYRIGHT, 1911, BY C. A. ELLIS PUBLISHED BY C. A. ELLIS, MANAGER : : Vladimir De Pachmann The Greatest Pianist Of the 20th Century ON TOUR IN THE UNITED STATES SEASON: 1911-1912 For generations the appearance of new stars on the musical firmament has been announced — then they came with a temporary glitter — soon to fade and to be forgotten. De Pachmann has outlived them all. With each return he won additional resplendence and to-day he is acknowl- edged by the truly artistic public to be the greatest exponent of the piano of the twentieth century. As Arthur Symons, the eminent British critic, says " Pachmann is the Verlaine or Whistler of the Pianoforte the greatest player of the piano now living." Pachmann, as before, uses the BALDWIN PIANO for the expression of his magic art, the instrument of which he himself says " .... It cries when I feel like crying, it sings joyfully when I feel like singing. It responds — like a human being — to every mood. I love the Baldwin Piano." Every lover of the highest type of piano music will, of course, go to hear Pachmann — to revel in the beauty of his music and to marvel at it. It is the beautiful tone quality, the voice which is music itself, and the wonderfully responsive action of the Baldwin Piano, by which Pachmann's miraculous hands reveal to you the thrill, the terror and the ecstasy of a beauty which you had never dreamed was hidden in sounds.

PROGRAMME NOTES Quartet for Strings, Op. 54, No. 2 (1788) Franz Joseph Haydn (1732 - 1809) The opening C Major statement is dramatically throttled by silence which, on its return, Haydn impishly lengthens by a bar. The second subject resembles that of the previous quartet - Haydn had not quite got the rhythm out of his system. In the Adagio, the first violin introduces a chorale which the second violin takes over, allowing the former to weave a Hungarian Gypsy descant in a precisely notated rubato. This dissolves into a minuet whose coyness is offset by an impassioned trio featuring the augmented triad. The finale is a bit of a surprise, particularly to the cellist who is required to ascend the fingerboard into regions long dulled and cobwebbed from disuse.
