The K were “Through Jasmine “Autumn Song.” and “Gipsy Maid the Hahn pieces were “Prelude” and “Romance,” and “The Woods at Dusk.” It is the obje Th sym- ct of this review only to take in the Hart and Kimball compositions, the Hahn numbers teing left to another writer. The “Elegy” The “Elegy” by Mr. Hart Jast on the program and required more than an hour in performance. The singers were Ruth Goodrich Horton, soprano; Jane Sartoris Tut- 1le, alto; Philip B. Shailer and| Maurice E. Wallen, tenors; John A. lindsay, baritone. The instrumen- talists were Herbert E. Anderson, violin; Mr. Hart at the first piano and Mrs. Emilie Andzulatis at the second piano. The “Prelude” to the “Elegy” was for two pianos and violin. By itsclf it would stand as a work of supreme merit. wThe Curfew Tolls the Knell of Parting Da: intoned the quartel unaccompanied for the most pa The blend of tone was ideal, the ef- fect breath-taking. Mrs. Horton followed with a noble aria of e tilting melody and gorgeous har- mony. came Again came a high light In the | singing of “Can Storied Urn.” by Mr. Lindsay. The impressiveness of the music and the manner in which it was sung will not be easily for- gotten. Mrs, Tuttle amply fulfilled expec- tation in the solo, 1l Many a Gem of Purest Ray Serene.” The melody was wafted above rapidly moving harmony, the violin join- ing. “The Applause of Listening Sen- ates,” sung by Mr. Lindsay, Te- quired a motif of sturdy character, Which after being embodied in the introduction was frequently heard later. It was one of rapidly mov- ing chords that aptly reflected sen- atorial applause. The quintet of vocalists then joined in a short ex- position that led to a tenor solo, and reached its climax in a unique trio for two tenors and baritone of intense dramatic power. After a short baritone solo the quartet took up the thread and alternating with a short alto solo, led to a pathetic close and thence was reached one of the outstanding ac- complishments of the composition. This was the funeral march for two pianos. Chopin and Beethoven wrote them, and it was necessary for Mr. Hart to hew along entire- Iy new lines. This he has done, Beauty You Stop ToLook At 1t there Is anything in this world Tovelier than a head of silken-like hair, pronounced in its own color, and wavy, it is an abundance of it.

The “Prelude” ¥ adequa rved as an open- ing number, being introductory in character and proved quite refresh- ing, at times the effect becoming al- most pastorale, and ultra medern in places. The first theme began in the bass with octaves well sustained, A zain in power came gradually and swiftly, a fortissimo. A rugged theme and modern harmony flowed in conjunc- [tion with very ravid ru This | gradually ameliorated, the first theme was again heard, once more gaining momentunm, and ended in the major key. The romance vein. It began vating and ori led to an allegro agitato. A return was eventually made to the first theme and ended with a heroic new theme. The whole was treated in {\ntl\ fluent style that one recogniz- ed immediately the work of a com- poser of high merit. The quartet for flute, violin, "cello and piano, entitled “The Woods at Dusk, most capably performed by the Orpheus instrumental quar- tet composed of Marcus H. Fleitzer, violin; Walter P. Occupin, ’cello: Harold G. Stedman, flute, and Charles A. Johnson, piano. A melo- dious waltz theme served as an in- troduction, followed by a piquant fast movement. Various rhythms were introduced and a return of the first theme was combined with the theme that occurred later, all mov- ing to a beautiful close. An espe- cially difficult piano part was well handled—Gertrude M. Hine.
