These records are a splendid splen-did dramatic interpretation of probably I the greatest love scene in all literature. Roniro has fallen in love with Juliet, although their families ore bitter en-I en-I rmies with a blood-feud generations old At the risk of his life. Romeo makes his way into the garden beneath her balcony, where Juliet has come alone offer Jhe nisht's festivities He hears her, oblivious of his presence, avow the newly awakened love that is to exalt them to the topmost pinnacles of being Echoes of the departing revellers, and a touch of the music from Gounod's opera "Rosieo et Juliet," lend a subtle atmosphere to this scene of which Sothern and Marlowe are the Ijreatejt living interpreters A contrast of strong, ringing, mascu- I line clearness of tone in a slow move- ment, and intrepid accuracy of playing in a swift and brillisnt one, may be heard in the new Victor Record "Sicil-ienne "Sicil-ienne and Kiiraudon," by Tascha lleifetr. The Sicilicnne is a dance ot antique dignity, the Rifjaudon a furious, whirling whirl-ing rhythm like a hornpipe gone mad. Those who love music, and dwell upon 1 i its workings in the soul of humanity j f j v.-ill find new sources of wonder in M I this Hcifetz record. "The Fountain fjeux d' Eau)" is a roetic and fanciful composition. The 4 eys melt under Cortot's fingers into a melody which, like the fountain rises fishing toward the heavens, to fall back in a myriad elitterin drops, gurclin?, 1 flashing like half-heard bells. The pool is disturbed by a p.issing wind, its waters shivered into mis! and the sur-' sur-' face blown into ridges and waves. Then the wind dies down, the pool grows calm, the fountain plays on almost silently. a3 if by moonlight. This Victor Record attains a rare degree of 1 musical perfection. Mr Stokowski says of Beethoven's I "Eighth Symphony" played for a Victor Record by the Philadelphia Orchestra "I chose this movement because of its ' wonderful beauty . . It is full of a light, child-like humor, expressed in music of the utmost grace and loveliness loveli-ness . . ." All these qualities arc ex-, ex-, ju,s',c'v rendered by the orchestra which Mr Stokowski leads. "A Dream" is a memory song in which, as Caruso interprets it on a Victor Record the commonplices singers havo M E u t you have St -- "yj world's living CoTUSO tenor singers, it will indeed reveal to you depths of beauty and emotion which you mirht well have thought impossible, im-possible, even with so lovely . a song.
