This is the noisy story of an overworked song and dance man who rushes from stage to studio and from broadcast to rehearsal at such a frantic pace that he has no time left for himself or his girl friend. In fact the tempo of Broadway and the vicissitudes of modern lovemaklng wear so heavily on the Jaded nerves of this middle-aged songster that he decides to get away from It all and take a rest-cure in the country, where, as "lack will have It, he not only regains his fall Koussevitsky Conducts the Boston Symphony in Concert at the Academy of Music Piano Recital by Pia Damerini Serge Koussevltzky and the Boston Symphony Orchestra visited Brooklyn last night for the last time this season. The audience, while good-sized, was hardly one to strain the capacities of the Academy of Music. Mr.

Koussevitzky's program, a well-balanced one, contained one premiere, one symphonic war-horse and an unfamiliar Bach transcription. Edward Burllngame Hill, whose Sinfonietta for String Orchestra, received Its first performance, Is professor in the music department of Harvard and has a long record as one of America's abler- academicians. The Sinfonietta, conceived In four orthodox movements, is an orchestral version of a work originally designed for string quartet. Despite the ing voice but finds a new sweetheart.

Tha production was directed by Alexander Hall and features in addition to its co-stars Philip Merlvale and Benny Baker. On the stage tha New York Paramount is presenting" Johnny Green and his orchestra. Another film premiere takes place today at the tiny World Theater in. W. 49th where a new Italian picture, "Territoriale Milizia," makea Its American debut.

This latest importation from the Italian studios is described as "a satire on events behind the lines during the World War." a a With Gavin Muir and Gloria Stuart heading the cast, 20th Century's "The Mercy Killer" goes Into production next Monday. J. Edward Bromberg, Sara Haden and Henry Armetta will be seen in important supporting roles In this picture which will be directed by George Marshall.

wming, it set forth little that has not been said over and over again. The amiable and somewhat tiresome score was given a painstaking reading, and earned its composer a cordial reception which he descended from his box to acknowledge. The Bach transcription was the well-known Chaconne from the unaccompanied Violin Sonata In Minor, and the transcriber was the contemporary Italian composer, Alfred Casella. Much that may well have caused the great Leipzig cantor to turn in his grave has been perpetratec1 in recent years by his well-meaning transcribers. Mr.

Ca-sella's effort reaches something of a record In misrepresentation, and Is In addition a most Ineffective piece of orchestra composition. It Is difficult write ineffectively when one is transcribing Bach, but Mr. Casella has succeeded. In extenuation it might be said that the Chaconne is one of the most purely vi-olinistic, and hence unorchestral, works of the master. Mr.

Casella has been at some pains to preserve its peculiar instrumental qualities-witness the initial statement of the theme, which is played by the entire first-violin section In virtually the same form that it has In the original. In such passages as this, he has been so literal In his transcribing as to deprive the work of orchestral feeling. Such modest lit-eralness might be considered laudable, If it were not for the fact that in other and simpler passages Mr. Casella has seen fit to clutter Bach's contrapuntal clarity with no end of his own melodic and polyphonic inventions, many of which are nearer related to Stravinsky than they are to the original composer style. The concluding work on the program was Brahms' First Symphony.

Mr. Koussevlk provided an Interpretation that, for all its me-ticulousness, one might have slept through undisturbed as far as any underlying sense of the storm and passion of the work was concerned.

And this holds true not only for second rank artists but also for dancers of major significance.

Again and again months are spent In creation and rehearsal, elaborate preparations are made for staging and costuming, special music Is composed, and all this terrific expenditure of creative energy for one performance; occasionally, under the happiest of circumstances, there may be two or three showings of the work. When "Theatre Piece" and "New Dance" were shown at the Guild Theatre some weeks ago, the work was greeted with practically unanimous praise by the audience and also by the dance and music critics of the local papers. This composition, containing a brilliantly Ironic survey of modern society and positing a visionary conception of the Ideal state, was acclaimed as a great contribution to the modern dance as well as a new line of departure for future accomplishment. The entire opus was conceived and directed by Doris Humphrey with the exception of one section, "In the Theatre," directed by Charles Weidman. In addition to Doris Humphrey and Charles Weidman, who danced the major roles, various members of their respective groups distinguished themselves as soloists.

for one, regretted that this masterly work was apparently not to be repeated, and that scores of people who read the next day's criticism would only know the work by hearsayif that kind of knowledge, particularly as regards dancing, is to be considered knowledge at all. That is why the announcement that the work is to be given again this Sunday evening at the Adelphi Theater strikes a responsive chord in me. This performance, sponsored by the New Theater Magazine, will enable those who missed the premiere to attend a dance performance of unquestioned significance and rare beauty.

I know It Isn't cricket to find fault with the plots of musical pictures, but I still the Warners have told us enough about the hard-boiled heartbreaks of the entertainment world. Also, there Is room for vast Improvement in the quality of gags issuing from the Warner shop; for though the dour Allen Jenkins and the frenzied Mr. Horton do their best to punctuate "The Singing Kind" with lively comic relief, their efforts are rendered Ineffective by the uniform flatness of their You will have understood by now that neither the story nor the comedy of the picture is among its most formidable virtues. Just what its virtues are, I don't know. There Is Al Jolson, very slick and earnest in the title-role, who appears in black face, plays with little Sybil Jason i England's threat to Shirley Temple) and sings a final mammy number.

There Is a big ensemble arrangement, designed by -Bobby Connolly, In which Mr. Jolson, Winl Shaw, Cab Calloway and a retinue of choristers sing Weir- way to heaven. There is the usual supply of tunes, most of them entrusted to Mr. Jolson. But, although Mr.

Jolson holds the screen foremost of the time, it is not he but the Four Yacht Boys who grab the honors. Certainly they are a lively quartet and they know how to'" make the most of a lyric; their first number, a commentary on the march of time as they observe It in the newspapers, has a rowdy zest -of humor that most of the film lacks. Cab Calloway, too, is an asset in any film, but unfortunately you are not permitted to see very much of him. Though all the members of the cast strive fast and furiously, I'm nfrald their material was just too commonplace for them to make a go of it. Mr.

Jolson moves- through it all with a dashing assurance; the ubiquitous Mr. Horton Is as distraught and physically helpless as ever. Miss Claire Dodd attends, this time, to the golddigglng business, with a snooty hauteur all her own. As for Miss Jason, she sings in a wee voice and English- accent, but she'll have to go a long way before she catches up with Shirley Temple.

E. Church. Beverly Road and Ocean on Tuesday, April 21. At the Albee The pictures at the Albee this week are "Charlie Chan at the Circus," with Mr. Oland, and "Song and Dance Man," with, among others, Claire Trevor and Paul Kelly.

The Chan fans will presumably not balk at the slightly greater degree of improbability attaching to these latest adventures of their favorite screen sleuth, and Miss Trevor's and Mr. Kelly's admirers can be counted upon to relish their performance to the exclusion almost of dissatisfaction with the material on which, In "Song and Dance Man," they operate. Mr. Oland-Chan appears this time against a background of freaks, apes, elephants and other big top paraphernalia. All of this adds to the confusion Inevitably Incidental to mystery films, without In the least deepening the atmosphere of terror which the film, like all its predecessors, alms to create.

Some day, perhaps, the producers of the Chan films will Join forces with Mr. Tod Browning you remember Mr. Browning? and give us something indisputably blood-curdling. Mr. Browning would have made quite a bit of the circus background in the opus under consideration; he had a way with freaks.

As it is, the midgets and the animals get rather in the way of one's attention. At the end Mr. Oland effects his usual miraculous triumph over cross and counter clues and delivers a murderer to justice. "Song and Danee Man" is an undistinguished version of the fable of the rich young man who smooths the road of success for the girl he loves and wins her affections as his reward. Miss Trevor and Mr.

Kelly are a loving pair, a small-time dance team, until Mr. Michael Whalen appears the scene. A transfer of Miss Trevor's affections follows, and Mr. Kelly obligingly eliminates himself from the running. There Is a little, but not much, more to It than this.

The performance is unpretentious and quite satisfactory. At the Fox "Moonlight Murder," a Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer picture, directed by Edwin L. Marin; with a cast including Chester Morris, Madge Evans, Leo Carrillo, Frank McHueh. Benlta Hume. Qrant Mitchell and Katharine Alexander; presented at the Fox along with "The Leathernecks Have Landed." a Republic Pictures production, directed bv Howard Bretherton, with Lew Ayres.

Isabel Jewell, Jimmy Ellison, James Burke and J. Caroll Naish, The mystery picture at the Fox, "Moonlight Murder," investigates the violent demise of an operatic tenor. You hear about a half act of "II Trovatore" as a prelude to his death, and then you see him, in the person of Leo Carrillo, collapse before the rapt multitudes of the Hollywood Bowl. The story-writers have assembled plenty of people back stage who have good motives for killing Mr. Carrillo; there is a second-string tenor who would like to succeed him, a director who Is jealous of his advances to the prima donna, a dancer who is also Jealous, a swami and a maniac.

If you are wise, you will not suspect any of these people too deeply. On the romantic side, there Is a Both plays will be shown on tne same bill Heinrich von Klelsts's "Der Zer- brochene Krug" and "Die Apostel," man St. and Belmont Ave. The program begins with Ossip Dymov's "The Eternal Wanderer," to be played in Yiddish on Wednesday, April 8.

Her redoubtable program comprised the Scarlatti-Tauslg Pastorale; Para-disi's Toccata, Turini's Presto, the Fantasia Op. 15 of Schubert, six etudes, the Fantasie-Impromptu and the Op.

31 Scherzo of Chopin, and works by Brahms, Debussy and Pick Mangaiagalll. In her opening selection, the simple Scarlatti Pastorale, Miss Damerini disclosed a singing tone and a commendable sense of musical values. But from this time on the pianist was voluntarily swallowed in whirlpools of pyrotechnics which would have proven healthy workouts for a Lhevinne or a Hofmann. From the Paradisl to the Chopin Minor prelude Op. 25 No.

12 there was not one piece but would have left the fingers of a digital Samson smoking. And Miss Damerini's fingers, though possessed of a certain flexibility, did not fall In this category. The effect of her program was to tire her out to such an extent that the singing tone which graced her Scarlatti disappeared by the time Chopin's lyric Major prelude (Op. 10 No. 3) came around to offer respite.

And then there Immediately followed the hand-breaking A Minor (Op. 25 No. 11), with deleterious results. Miss Damerini deserves to be heard again soon, in a program which will not tax her capacities, and which will afford ample play for the qualities which were hidden last night. R.

William Oirdan, Veree Tldale Heler Mack. Dorothy Wilson and Lionel Stander. Wheij the silent pictures went out quite a numoer of the nation's favorite players went with them. Harold Lloyd was one and for a time his eclipse threatened to be permanent. Fortunately (or the public though, Mr.

Lloyd In retirement was busy not with resigning himself to obscurity and a life of ease, but with preparing himself for a second arduous phase, of. his career. A year or so ago he emerged in his first talkie; now we are confronted by his second, "The Milky Way." The conclusion which both invite is that Mr. Lloyd is still a first-rate comedian who should be urged (and box-office returns will probably have this effect) to cast his shadow on the screen at more frequent intervals. "The Milky Way," adapted from a stage play which had a brief Broadway run some time back, has not the virtues of plot that were found in Mr.

Lloyd's first talkie, the name of whU'h escapes the memory. But Mr. Lloyd appears In it In a familiar characterization that of the timid and believing soul who is continually fhe tool and dupe of his superiors Mr. Lloyd has his own methoJ of presenting this stock type, a method which lends it a certain engaging freshness he indicates pretty clearly that he finds it fairly ridiculous himself, snd invites us to laugh with him at the character he present 'at least rs often as he allows us to laugh at him. Mr Lloyd thus becomes the center of the picture's attraction and the greatest of Its virtues.

In "The Milky Way" Mr. Lloyd is a milRman who find himself elevated through no fault of his own to the rank ot middleweight champion of the world His associates in the cast are Helen Mack, Veree Teasdale, William Gargan, Lionel Stander and Adolph MenJou.
