ence.
To some listeners the Symphany
is the life of a man. The second
movement is glad and joyful, until
the trio stops the orsry. In this
trio. Death beats the drum. With
TschaJJtowsky, .here, the drum is
the most tragic of instruments
The persistent beating of it is de
SDairine and not untouched with
ironv. It is for this that some
who do not love the composer, call
him a barbarian and a savage.
In his third movement the
march-scherzo, the "Pathetic"
reaches its full despair of dark
ness and the miserable oblivion of
death. With desperate hopeless
ness the Russian composer seems
to come to the end of his faith and
anticipation. Shelley writes of the
Symphony: "Tschaikowsky in this
symphony has stained eternity's
radiance: he has captured the
years and bound them into a mo
mentarv emotional pang."
The Sixth Symphony was first
performed in America by the
Symphony society oi xew lorn in
1894. with Walter Damrosch as
conductor. Since that time its
tragic notes have flowed around
the world, part of the world's sym
phony of despair. At its many re
citals it has been acclaimed by
great critics of music, and con
tinues in popularity.
Other numbers to be played by
the University orchestra during
this afternoon will be Tschaikow-
sky's "Waltz of the Flowers" from
the "Nutcracker Suite." George
Gershwin's composition "Rhapso
dy in Blue" will prove an interest
ing variation on the program. The
overture "Frieschutz by vveoer;
and "Dance of the Clowns" by
Rimsky-Korsakov are to be played
by the musicians.
