OF WE 10 BESTI" a later In the program The latter benefited as much as the former suffered from this treatment and if Mr Smit thought that his barely audible Bach was stylistically correct my only rejoinder would be that if he wanted the solo part to be discreet he should have used the harpsichord The other soloists in the Bach were Mauri ta Thornburgh soprano Claudine Carlson mezzo-soprano Ken Remo tenor James Tippey bass Israel Bar keris violin obbligato in the alto aria was fire only distinctive contribution In the perform-ance Beethoven's Choral Fantasy whose long solo piano part Mr Smit stormed through brilliantly is a parody on the composer's style Its meaning- less bombast and mock seriousness could have been written by the composer's archest rival and by the time the chorus enters in material that strongly portends the last movement of the Ninth Symphony one has lost Interest of Destiny'-is another matter It is beautiful moving and skillfully written and the Chorale on its best

Things got off to a tentative start with the Chorale singing BlelbetMelne from Cantata Nft 147 an unscheduled item presumably inserted because the final movement of Bach's Minor Concerto was omitted Whatever the reason the beloved as a curtain raiser seemed a rather forlorn old friends The Cantata No 148 was performed next with the opening movement of the Minor Concerto used as an introductory
