The article presents various music recordings. According to the author, symphonies by the company Beecham, and London Philharmonic orchestra, Columbia are superb. Columbia also has issued Franz Schubert's "Piano Sonata Opus 120." This is the one that is most played by students and amateurs, which may be why the public has the idea that all of Schubert's sonatas are minor works with only the pretty melodies and the archnesses of this one. A performer's inflection of a melody, his differentiation of its sounds and lifting of some into higher relief than others by gradations of force and pace, is his way of making the meaning he hears in it apparent to the listener.
