Gouvy's “Decameron Suite, Opus 28,” proved to be a triumph for his ac- companist, Josef Adler, whose strongly marked raythms and ciear bell-like tone won for him the heartiest applause of the morning. In the modern group Mr. Van Vliet introduced some nice effects, but not enough of them to sustain great in- terest. His tone was sweet but rather thin and his contrasts lacked brilliancy. Jeral’s “Danse Exotique” was the most imaginative of the group. Mme. Muzio employed & small, clear voice in Brogi's “Gatine Cialle” and Debussy's “Nuit d’Etoiles.” Her clever handing and sincere feeling left the audience murmuring appre- clatively in her favor. The frequent mixing of her rather breathy larger voice with the soft register inter- rupted the continuity of Schubert’s nett and Car- “Pastorella” and Verdl's “Aria, Pace, penter.
