Abstract
- When the Poland-born musician Paul Kletzki, made his first New York appearance recently at the head of the Philadelphia Orchestra, critical attention focused upon him with considerable intensity. Only a few days earlier, it had been announced that the Dallas Symphony, formerly led by Walter Hendi, had contracted Kletzki as music director for the 1958-59 season. Officials of the orchestra, it is said, had heard him conduct a pair of concerts in Cincinnati last month; had invited hint to Dallas; and speedily fixed upon an agreement. To begin with Kletzki's reading of the first work' on the program--Brahms's Fourth Symphony, was the most peculiar, one has ever heard. His tempt were slow enough to place the interpretation roughly into the category, of Germanic performances.
