The first performance of a new composition, Iberia American Suite by Dmitri Tiomkin, son of the Zionist Revisionist leader Dr. Z. Tiomkin, was warmly greeted at the Lewisohn Stadium, where it was offered Tuesday night and last night, under the baton of Hugo Reisenfeld.
The composition provided a musical setting for a performance by the Rasch Ensemble under the direction of Albertina Rasch, wife of Mr. Tiomkin.
