SCORES SUCCESS IN APPEARANCE HERE impresses Old Friends With Her Technique and Interpre- tive Ability Appearing Thursday night at the City Auditorium under the sponsor- ship of the Catholic Daughters of America, Miss Erma Weinberger dis- played to advantage the piano tech- Pave won a reputation for her in the | ¢ Northwest and a scholarship to study at the Leipzig Conservatory in Ger- many. She played for one of the most dif- ficult audiences a young virtuoso can face, an audience of friends who “knew her when”; a friendly audience but one which it was all the more difficult to impress because of past association, But Miss Weinberger was more than equal to the task. She had not only superior technique but an artistry which caused the audience to forget the performer for long moments, con- centrate wholly on the music. Throughout the concert Miss Wein: berger’s manual skill was above re- proach, but that can be said of many pianists, What won her audience and earned for her an ovation was the in- terpretive quality of her work. In this, as well as in her stage presence, she was far superior to most pe! tormers of her years and experience. Played Chopin Group The young artist's interpretation of the entire Chopin group was worthy | % of a much older pianist. She brought cut the plaintive quality of the com- | ¥ poser with delicacy, at the same time presenting the main theme with a/¢ Frecision born of her excellent tech- nique. One of the most brilliant numbers was “Fantasie-Impromptu, Op. 66,” in which her swiftly moving fingers caught the major theme, bringing it out clearly above the notes of the staccato runs. Varied in the beauty of the musical Pictures it presented was “Minia- turas,” by Turina, “Caminando,” was accented by its bass notes. Miss Weinberger proved that she was cap- able of interpreting gaiety, lightness and staccato movements as well as the siower, heavier themes. She ably ac- cented the soft, sweet quality of “Duo theme of “ La Vuelta.” Even in the swiftly moving “Pois- sons d'Or,” Debussy, Miss Weinberger made each note an entity blending into a pleasing melody. The difficult theme of “Triana from ‘Iberia,’” was excellent proof of her power and well- trained hands, 3 Waltzes Were Pleasing “Concert Arabesquest on ‘The Beau- tiful Blue Danube Waltzes,” ended her announced program.

There must be just the right amount of soft, deep folds at the chest, not too much “break” at the sleevehead, and the collar must fit just so.

Not content with the program, the audience requested another number. Miss Weinberger complied with Nie- mann’s “Singing Fountains.” It was @ happy choice, ending the concert with its haunting, lingering quality, brought out by the player with the effortlessness of great skill. Miss Weinberger and her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Weinberger, 700 Mandan 8t., left Friday morning for Minneapolis. Miss Weinberger sails fcr Europe from New York City on the Queen Mary Sept. 8.
