Technically, they were worthy the mettle of these star men [performers in the Chamber Music Society of San Francisco]. On the other hand, this notable work from a notable woman was worthily interpreted by this organization honored by the splendid American woman who has distinguished her sex and her country by her big achievements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe flute does not predominate, but blends with the strings, and the variations are so cleverly interwoven with fixed themes that they do not seem to be variations in the stereotyped sense. This blending of flute and strings is done so ingeniously that one is under the impression that the flute is not treated liberally enough, and only after some thought and investigation does one become acquainted with Mrs. Beach s clever scheme. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e - Stephanie J.
