Mr. Stenson is well known here as a pianist and as composer. He played a group of Chopin selections very well and gave Sinding’s “Rustle of Spring” as his encore. He deserves special mention for excellent blending of the piano ac- companiments to the tonal expression of every phrase in their songs given by the ensemble Such accompanying is an art in itself. As the name of this ensemble sug- gests, the group is composed of singers who are established as soloists in pro- fessional work in Washington. Sixteen women form the ensemble and every one of them is to be commended for the co-operative artistry shown under Mr. Simon’s guidance in blending all the voices to fine, even tone quality. The advantage of having soloists in such a becomes evident when some particular shading of tone em- phasizing one voice for a few phrases to vary the tone color and prevent monotony in the effects achieved is produced.
