He began with the Pugnani-Kreisler "Prelude e Allegro," plunging into it with vigor, and playing with breadth and power. It was boldly set forth, and the audience seemed to appreciate fully the fine work. Then came that exquisitely ethereal .. Melodie" by Gluck, and the "Waltz in E Minor" by Brahms, arranged by Mr. Gordon. These had the mellow, sustained melodies played in a way that couldn't fail to stir an audience. His first group closed with Beethoven's more lively "Contredance."

Sowerby's .~jSlow and Sentimental," and Gordon's 'arrangement of Glazounow's "Caprice," completed the second group. The latter was done mainly pizzicati and with harmonics.
