Farewell to Sigi W eissenberg "PLAY WITH FIRE"
Forthcoming Rep's Production
Left to right: Mr. and Mrs. L. Karnovsky, Mr. Sigi Weissenberg and Mr. Solly Yellin.
T HE City Hall was crowded on Monday, September 23, when Sigi Weissenberg gave his final con- cert in Johannesburg in aid of the Palestine Orchestra and the Habi- mah Treatre. The concert was ar- ranged by the courtesy of African Consolidated Theatres.
W eissenberg was in excellent form in a programme which ranged from Beethoven to Wladigeroff, and at the close of the performance the young artist was repeatedly called out by the audience. He gave a generou:;
number of encores.
The same evening members of the Committee and workers of the S.A.
li'riends of the Palestine Orchestra and Habimah met at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. H. L. Karnovsky to bid farewell to Sigi Weissenberg. Mr.
Solly Yellin, acting Chairman of the
"Friends," made a presentation to Mr. Weissenberg and thanked him for the magnificent performance which he had given. He said that as a result of the concert the Palestine Orchestra and Habimah would bene- fit to the extent of £1,300, and that was due to the co-operation of the artist who showed the greatest eager~ess to play for the Palestine Orchestra.
Mr. Yellin paid tribute to Weis- senberg's great gifts and said that he was on the threshold o_f a great career and that everyone was confi- dent of his great future.
Dr. Wulf Sachs associated himself with the 1·emarks of MT. Yellin, and moved a vote of thanks to the host and hostess at whose home, he said, the Friends of the Orchestra was first formed.
The J ohanne?-burg Repertory Players open at the Library Theatre on October 9 with a thriller, 'Play With Fire."
"Play With Fire" is written by Edward Percy, one of the co-authors of "Ladies in Retirement." It is produced by Anita Colman, and the cast includes Theo Sachs, Kathleen Kelly, Rognvald Gibsen, Hadassah Blechman, Mark Carel, Jessie Moss and one newcomer whom the Reps regard as a "find"-John Rutherford.
Johannesburg Musical Society Concert
Three Arias by Gluck, arranged for a quartet by Professor Kirby, were the main work performed at the last concert of the Musical Societv held at the Selborne Hall.
Anne 'Taylor,
a
the Eoloist, gave agood performance of this difficult work, but her voice was better and her sing-ing easier in the songs which followed.
Bruno Raikin's accompaniment of Miss Taylor's songs was very sensi- tive.
The Chamber Music portion of the concert consisted of Michael Dore's string quartet playing the lovely Quartet in D Minor by Schubert, as well as three very interesting Novel- Ietten by Glazounov.
