...shopworn but showy Concerto in D Minor. Still one of the world's great pianists, despite his small hands,* and a brilliant technician who excels at interpreting Chopin, Hofmann next played a group of Chopin solo pieces and many an encore. One of them was the "Minute" Waltz which Hofmann-his humor not deserting him even on so dressy an occasion-tacked impishly on the end of a languishing Chopin nocturne.

But next week Kostelanetz will excise large chunks from the Naila Waltz of Delibes, the Caprice Espagnol of Rimsky-Korsakov, and Pianist José Iturbi will whip through the finale of a Mozart sonata in 3 min. He will also play the piano part of Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue, minus only 4 min. of its 16-min. length...
