Show i 10A The Salt Lake Tribune, Tuesday, September 9, 19i( Audience was small lp The Music Philharmonia concert great, but not popular By Anne Mathews Tribune Staff Writer It may have been because of Pavarottis concert, it may have been because it was a Sunday night, or it may have been due to the Utah Symphonys Bon Voyage concert on the two previous nights. For whatever reason, the audience at the London Ihilharmonias concert Sunday at Symphony Hall, sponsored by Weber State College, was embarrassingly small. Because most of the roughly 350 people there sat in the three upper tiers where the lower-priceseats were, the main floor had only 50 to 75 people. When the orchestra came on stage immediately before the concert began, the hall appeared virtually empty. There was a kind of horror that accompanied the realization that this was it The musicians were visibly shocked Conductor Giuseppe looked grim. The program began with Schumann's Symphony No. 2 in C Major. At the beginning, one was still painfully aware of the lack of surrounding bodies. The playing seemed a little dispirited in the first movement and it would not have been surprising had the entire concert sounded lackluster. But the musicians gradually seemed to forget the cavernous hall and launched themselves into the work with conviction By the time the Philharmonia played the second work in the program, Tchaikovskys Symphony No. 5 in E Minor, it sounded like the great orchestra it is. We forgot the empty rows of seats; the music filled the extraordinary. Tchaikovksy becomes irresistible when played like that. The audience, perhaps in consequence of its tiny numbers, shouted and clapped with passion for many curtain calls. Sinopoli and the musicians Philharmonia looked both bemused and gratified. Daniel L. Martino, director of Weber State College's office of cultural affairs, said a considerable amount of money was lost with the concert, which was underwritten by an anonymous Ogden patron. The orchestra's fee alone was $45,000, Martino said. The Philharmonia's appearance was apparently scheduled two years ago when nothing but the State Fair had been scheduled for two weeks on either side. There is probably no single reason for what happened Sunday. It is a pity that so many people missed such a fine concert. Sin-opo- li hall.

Sinopoli is an elegant conductor, spare in his movements, but expressive. He stands perfectly still and from the waist up moves like a ballet dancer His rapport with the musicians is strong. The Schumann symphony, with all its scoring for strings, showed off the Ihilharmonias warm string sound to advantage. But it was the Tchaikovsky that revealed fully the orchestras skill. Sinopoli gave the works a broad, lush treatment and a strong momentum. The orchestra created rolling billows of sound; the velocity and accuracy in the last movement before the final andante theme were d FIRST Man r- Dr. Gregory F. McGinn, D.C.
