Katherine Riggs, harplst. and Emily Harrold, soprano, appeared in recital last night at the Arts Club, achieving marked success because of the artistry, the beauty and originality of thelr program, and their fine presenta tions. They zave two groups of numbers together, the deep fuil tones of the harp blending with the lovely lyric qualliy of the singer’s voice, notable particularly in the folk group. which included a beautiful melody of Latvia “The Sun Runs Its Course.” and the tragic “Choral" of Poland. In Chopin's “Spring Song’* of Poland. which closed this group, Miss Harrold did the most attractive ‘work of her program. al- though “Joy,” hy Gaul. which closed her group of solos, was a close second to it Intriguing harp accompaniments were a feature of several of their num- bers together, notably 3 (Del Riego) and ‘“Ashes of Roses (Woodman). the latter displaving to excellent advantage Miss Riggs’ mastery of her harp, and Miss Har rold’s clear enunciation and effective legato. In her individual number Miss Har- rold was supported by Lenore Jones at the piano. Particularly delightful wera Mrs. Beach's “Exaltation” and Fisher's “1 Wait for Thee." Loukine's “Prefude in A Minor.” one of the best of modern harp numbers, with moments of striking beauty, and a welrd, reiterated refrain. wax fol- wed by Hasselman's fascinating “Harp of the Winds." said to he the portraval by the composer of the idea in the celebrated painting of the same name by Homer Martin.
