" PLEASNG Toachers Achiere Ditinction in " Thair First Concert The first eoncert given by the New Britaln Teachers' Glee club took plage at the Senior high school audi- torium last night before a well filled house. The Glee club made an at- tractive appearance as well as fur- nishing pleasing music; it consisted of several dozen young women and | balf a dozen male teachers. who fur- pished bass and tenor. In addition there was a vocal and an instru- mental quartet, and an instrumental solaist. The Glee club was Miss L. Ethel Prior, who has charg: of the music at the State Normal school. As a director, Miss Prior knows what a baton is for, and she combines grace with effi- clency. The chorus was well trained and followed her interpretations to a nicety. The vocal soloists, who had op- portunities in various numbers and also gave a brace of quartet music, were Kathleen Crowley Solomon, so- prano; Florence Ostlund, contralto; Charles Stuhlman, tenor, and Ernest F. Upham, bass. These were also an aid in providing sonority and bal- ance to the Glee club singing. Instrumental music was provided by the Orpheus Instrumental Quar- tet, consisting of Marcus H. Fleitzer, violin and director; Walter P. Occu- pin, 'cello; Harold G. Stedman, flute; and Charles A. Johnson, piano, Mr. Fleitzer also played a violin solo, giving an added number. The quar- tet also added an encore. Miss Lolia M. Littlehales was piano accompanist for the Glee club and the vocal quartet, and her capable efforts received unstinted approval by the audience. One of the high lights in the con- cert was the duet singing of Miss Winnifred Partridge and Mr. Up- ham. They gave the popular, “The Bells of 8t. Mary's,” which is woven _around endearing words.

Auditors com- mented upon the fact that she had a ‘splendid voice. The Glee club sang nine selec- tions, ranging through many moods and all projected with a high regard for their content. One of its most fetehing contributions was at the “very beginning, when Pinsuti's “The - Sea Hath Its Pearls,” was given with imaginative distinction; and this was well duplicated near the end, when Robertson's “All in the April Evening,” was similarly treated. The serious and the humorous also ' found places, the program being spiced with gratifying variety.

The Instrumental quartet had quite a field day, or night, play- ing six pleces. Among the newcom- ers in the repertoire was the Sibel- ius “Valse Trieste,” and the minuet from the Haydn military symphony; the “Invitation to the Dance,” by Weber was also warmly received. ‘The quartet's playing earned much applause. Adding a touch of completeness to the program, Mr. Fleitzer played a violin solo, the “Scherzo,” by Van Goenz, a rapid ear-tickler that was 80 well received the violinist had to add a Kreisler piece as an encore. these numbers.
