The Grinke Trio: Frederick Grinke (violin); Florence Hooton (violoncello); Dorothy Manley (pianoforte)

A comparatively late work of Brahms. this Trio has from the outset a sense of real bigness. The violin and violoncello alone begin the first big subject in octaves, and the second, more smoothly flowing, grows out of it so naturally that when the pianoforte begins it, it seems to be a continuation of the first. It is a long and elaborate movement, coming to an end with a quicker section in which the pianoforte has a strenuous part while the strings have a slower melody. Writing of this first movement Professor Tovey says that 'the style is grandly energetic with deep shadows of mystery, the mystery of nature rather than romance'.
The theme of the slow movement has that simple folk-song character which Brahms so often contrives to give his tunes. As in the first movement, the two strings begin in octaves while the pianoforte accompanies with chords. Another tune appears first as a pianoforte solo, and the opening returns in a more vigorous form. Then there is a flowing, tranquil section, with a tune which the violoncello begins, to be followed by the violin.
The most striking feature of the Scherzo is the figure made up of rapidly repeated notes played by the strings while the pianoforte rushes upwards in scales. The Trio has a fine, song-like melody which the violin begins with rippling accompaniment, and the Scherzo is repeated.
Again in the last movement the two strings play the first big theme in octaves at the outset while the pianoforte accompanies, and it is they also who introduce the second principal tune, another broad melody. Like the first, the movement is an elaborate one, but, with the two tunes in mind, it is easy to follow and to enjoy.
Ireland's Fantasy Trio, a comparatively early work, presents no difficulty at all to the listener. From beginning to end, it is frankly melodious. There are four sections, played without a break, corresponding to the four movements of a sonata. The sense of unity is obtained by the use of the opening broad melody of the first section, which appears again in the other sections, notably the third.

Sir DONALD F. Tovey , Mus.Doe.
(Reid Professor of Music in the University of Edinburgh)

Out on the allotment, in the small or large garden, in the greenhouse or by the cold frame, preparations are in progress for another season. Enthusiasts remember the snags' of last year, the seeds that let them down, the seedlings that came up but perished in the advance of slug invaders, the dressing that was wrong, the ' worm in the bud ', the maggot in the carrot— they remember these disasters and want to avoid them this year.
Such listeners, and especially those who have sent their problems and difficulties to Mr. C. H. Middleton , should listen to his talk this evening, because he is going to answer questions of general interest, put to him in his large mail.
Nobody-not even the most skilled gardener-can afford not to learn. The novice should be all ears, pencil, and a note-hook. It's February. Shouldn't he sow those sweet peas now under shelter ? Is he over-watering the carnations in the frames ? When should he prune the roses ? Invaluable hints for gardeners will be given in this talk tonight.
