Phone Potomac 40, 41, 42, 43 Lightsome as Tuscany’s Breezes MUSIC The Rubinstein Club, more or less of an institution in Washington, as its biggest choral organization of Wwomen, gave its third and final pro- gram of the season at the New Wil- lard before an audience that filled the large ballroom last night. ' The feature of the program was supposed to be the singing of the prize composition, “Ho, to Spring!™ written by. Louis Vietor Saar of the Chicago Musical College. It does not seem to be a very distinetive work, It is one of those things in which the one phrase of words is repeated many times with varying intonation and the same sounds juggled about until one is utterly weary of them. Scarlatt! managed to do’ this sort of thing very well in the seventeenth century and the old English madri- gals used similar methods, There is nothing modern or American about the work. Mr. Saar is undoubtedly a fine musician and is noted as being a prize winner of established reputa- ton. It would seem, however, that he dashed this song off in a spare moment between more serious things. The real feature of the evening was the. “Colonial Song,” by Percy Grain- ger, arranged for the chorus by Elizabeth Collison-Hill, a member of the club. ‘It is a beautiful thing, full of plaintive melodies that grip the mind and imagination and recur to one when least expected. The ar- rangement includes violin and cello obbligatos, effectively played by Elsa Raner and Mabel Duncan. The club did not seem to be thoroughly familiar with the words of this song and con- did not enunciate with their xcellent clearness. It is a re- markable work, however, and quite worthy of a permanent place in the repertoire of a serious-minded adult aggregation of singers. “Rose Baby" was another choral number with inti- mate club connections. Jessica Tabler Benham, another member, is the com- poser. Arthur Tregina, formerly with the United States Marine Band, ar- ranged the work for chorus. The club opened the program with Spross’ arrangement of Rubinstein's LEARN DRESSMAKING Millinery—Costume Designing Very low tuition. Ask for Catalogue LIVINGSTONE ACADEMY 1517 R. I. Ave. N.W.

Mrs. Beach’s delicate and beautifully worked out choral, “Peter Pan,” was sung admirably, with un- usually effective piano accompani- ment by Pauline Knoeller. Mr. Robe- son seems to have emphasized variety in his choice of selections for this program and was, udusluul, tully equal to his task as conductor. Three soloists and the Madrigal Quartet, all club members, gave short groups of songs. Cecile Sale, possessor of big rich tone of contralto quality, but not clean-cut in her enunciation, sang three songs, of which Spross “Minor gnd Major” seemed the most colorful in interpretation. Frances Cole, mezzo-soprano, has a smaller voice of nice quality and gave her numbers fine enunclation and good tonal shading. Especlally good were Phillips' “Hushed Is My Lute” and her encore, the negro spirituel, “Swing Along.” Gertrude Russell, soprano, also had really fine quality and enun- ciation, but uneven tone production. She sang Pearl Curran’s “Rain” as an encore. The quartet sang Del- Riego's “Homing"’ and Clough-Lelght- er's “Lady Chlo” as on the program and inserted Curran’s “Dawn” be- tween the two. .
