ISRAEL'S PHILHARMONIC GIVES CONCERT FOR POPE
ROME, (JTA) The larael Phil¬ harmonic played a precedent breaking private concert before Pope Plua XIII recently, the first orchestra ever to do so for Pope Pius. The private concert was given at the request of Conductor Paul Kletzky, who asiced that the orchestra be permitted to perform oo a gesture of gratitude fpr the help given by the Roman Catholic Church to victims of Naziam arid Fascism.
A special communique Issued by the Vatican following the Papal audience said that "His Holiness expressed appreciation of the sig- nicant homage," and confirmed that the request had been made "to renew the recognition and grati¬ tude for the Immense work of human aaslatance performed by Hla Hoilnes» In the rescue of a great number of Jews during Lhe second World. War." The wording of   the  official   Vatican   announce¬
ment stressed the fact that the orchestra is "vompO.He(l of Jewish artlst.s belonging to H different nationalities."
When the Pope entered the large consistory hall, accompanied by two Cardinals, he raised his hands in blessing over the orcheatra which waa standing in silence. Mr Kletzky then asked permission to play and, when he received it, an¬ nounced that the orchestra would play the second movement of Bee- thoven'a Seventh Symphony. Bee¬ thoven ia one of the Pope'a fav¬ orite compoaers.
When tho iaat note died away, the Pope applauded, smilingly thanked Mr. Kletzky, declared: "It v/as marveloua playing. What won¬ derful artlata. It Is not you muat thaxik me for this audience, but it is for me to thank you for th e pleasure you have given me. I pray God every day that such cruelties as happened should  never happen
again." Then he asked God's bless¬ ing for the members of the orches¬ tra and their families.
Concertmaater Henry H a f t e 1 thanked the Pope for the oppor¬ tunity for playing for him and added that "the Jewish "people are happy to express through music their gratitude for the help the Church gave to persecuted people. Our orcheatra is composed of mual- cians from H countries, moat of them have suffered prraecution," he pointed out.
Replying, the Pope said that he was happy that from so much evil such an instrument of artlsUe croatibn was bom. He recalled that Aituro Toacanlni was Instrumental in the creation of the Israel Phil- harmonic Orchestra and had eon- ducted ita Inaugural concert iii larael. At the cloae of the audience Pope Plua presented medals with his likeneaa to the conductor and concertmaster.
