...musicians their reputations are uniquely and indissolubly bound into one. They are the only famed lutanists in the world. Spanish Composers Manuel de Falla, Isaac Albeniz and Joaquin Nin have written music for them. Paris, London, Brussels have applauded their playing. Fortnight ago they made their U. S. debut in Manhattan. Last week seven other cities heard them?Boston, Princeton, N. J., Greencastle, Ind., St. Louis, Lake Forest, Ill., Chicago, Providence.

Serafin and Joaquin Alvarez Quintero, playwright-brothers of Madrid, might easily have drenched it in tears of sentimentality, but the best proof that their play avoids pathos is the fact that the old man does not die in the last act.
