It was this part of last evening's program that came off best the Lcbussy and the Prokofiew. As a classicist, we find Mr. Koussewitsky less stimulating. His "Leonora" overture Is a string, well co-ordinated performance, but his "Eroica" Is too great and unsubstantiated a challenge to classical traditions to be good. It Is over-dramatic, weighty, tlow and in the end, tedious.
