CONCERT WEDNESDAY IS INITIAL PIERIAN BOW
PROGRAM OFFERS VARIOUS WORKS BY FOREIGN COMPOSERS
The Harvard University Orchestra, of the Pierian Sodality of 1808, conducted by Mr. Slonimsky will give its first public concert of the year on Wednesday, December 19 at Brattle Hall. The performance will be followed by a dance.
The Pierian Sodality is pursuing its new policy of fresh programs and heightened standards of performance: in fact a month before that jazz-opera is produced in New York, the audience will hear a Fantasia from Krenek's "Jonny spielt auf."
An unusual program is announced for the first concert of the year: The first movement of a Symphony "Pilgrim" by Paul Allen '04, Rondino by Libelius, "In Silent Forests" by Richard Strauss, Rumanian Folk-Dances by Mela Bartok as well as that orchestral fantasia "Jonny strikes up" by Ernest Krenek, which is so popular in Europe now.
