In this article, the author talks about various musical performances. The complete score of artist Igor Stravinsky for the ballet "Pulcinella," was performed for the first time by artist Robert Craft at a concert of his Chamber Art Society. The author was really impressed by the performance. At artist Franz Rupp's piano recital one heard a remarkable gain in technical mastery of his instrument, in the accuracy of fast passage-work, the clarity of texture, the beauty of sound and also a remarkable gain in musical continuity. What was lacking in the performances was the impress of style.
