Dr. Serge Koussevitzky returns to conduct this week's Symphony concerts with a program which begins with Handel's Sixth Concerto Grosso and a Symphony in D by Clementi, and ends up with three Wagnerian selections. It is interesting to note that the Symphony which was written in the time of Beethoven, was lost for nearly one hundred years, being finally purchased at auction by the Library of Congress. It was subsequently revised by Alfredo Casella.

Rachmaninoff Recital

Sergei Rachmaninoff, the noted Russian composer, conductor, and pianist, is to give a recital in Symphony Hall on Sunday afternoon. His program includes four of his own Etudes Tableaux, Beethoven's Sonata Opus 109, several Chopin numbers, and Liszt's Rhapsody No. 12.

Another pianist, Frank Glazer, who has been acquiring quite a name for himself recently, is to play in Jordan Hall this evening.

Other Events

The Stradivarius Quartet, an admirable chamber music group, is to give a concert in the central court of Fogg Art Museum next Tuesday evening. Bach's Passacaglia in C minor, arranged by Alfred Pochon, Beethoven's Quartet in D major (Opus 18), and Haydn's Quartet in B flat major (Opus 64, No. 3) are to be performed. The San Carlo Opera Company is opening a week's engagement at the Opera House next Monday evening with "Carmen." "Aida" will be given the following night and the repertoire for the rest of the week includes "Lohengrin," "Madame Butterfly," "Rigoletto," "Faust," and "Il Trovatore."
