RUSSIAN CONCERT PLEASES AUDIENCE “Foreign” Music Also Played at Continental Hall Benefit Affair. Under auspices of the Grand Duke Alexander of Russia, a gala concert was given last night at the Memorial Continental Hall for the benefit of St. Alexander’s Russian Orthodox Church. The artists who appeared were Perle Barti, prima donna of the Royal Opera at Madrid, and soloist to Her Imperial Majesty, Victoria-] ia, the Queen of Spain; Nicolas opeikine, Russian planist; Michael Shvets, basso, and Emanual Zetlin, violinist. Althcugh the nmrm struck pre- dominantly a Russiarl note, there was considerable “foreign” variety offered by the artists. Mme. Barti sang from Verdi's “La Forza del Destino” 'and from Landon Ronald’s “The Cycle of Life,” and Mr. Kopeikine alternated Russian themes with such favorite bits as Ravel's “Jeux d'eax” and the “Mephisto Valse” by Liszt. An interest- ing collection of Russian music was assembled by Basil Tourtorski for the different musicians. Perle Barti has a voice which she handles with comparative ease and much dramatic intensity. The power of her clear soprano tone was especially apparent in her Verdi number, and afterwards with Ronald’s “Prelude,” the Spanish song “Amor Fugaz,” and Rom- berg'’s “One Kiss” from “The New Moon,” she demonstrated her versatility in modulated capacities. Whether or not due to the tonal atmosphere of the room she seemed however, at her best in the more resioient upper notes of her 0] range. icolas Ko) played his piano selections with the touch of the imag- inator as well as the acute technician. The most effective part of his 3 included the “Jeux d’Eax” by Ravel aud “The Lark” by Glinka-] ireff. The violin pleces that Emanuel Zetlin of- fered were short and done with con- siderable sweetness of tone. Amon, the fones that Michael Schvets sang, the familiar “Volga Boatman” was cer- tainly one of the most applauded. CITIES IN 16 STATES START DAYLIGHT TIME 2 AM.
