The January meeting of the Nor- wich Music Association was held Mon- day evening at the home of Archibald Mitchell, there being a very ldrge at- tendance in spite of the decidedly un{ favorable weather conditions. Joseph H. Belden, president, voiced the appreciation of the association, of thé so graciously extended hespital- ity of Mr. Mitehell, in this opening his His home to them for the occasion. The programme opened by the sing- ing of the audience of the Hymn to Musie, the very lovely composition, which the association feels it has a | personal share in by virtue of the au- thor and ihe composer bel fellow members, the words being by Miss Maisie V. Caruthers, and the rnusic belonging to Mr. Seiden. The verse foilows: God given music! For this hour Casting aside the cares of day, Let all surrender to the power And beauty of its magic sway. Hearts that are sorrow here forget! Fear for the coming morrow cease! Hush, fof 2 little, life’s vain fret, While music speaks to us of peace. The main part of the programme was rendered by the string quartet, Miss Isabel H. Mitchell and Miss Eli- zoheth A. Lane, violins;- Frederick W. Lester, viola, Charles D. Gallup, ’cello. The parts were well balanced and even, with no sacrifice of tone and no ap- parent effort to preserve that balance, Lut a very uniform smoothness.~ Mozart’s Quartet in C major was given its full brilliance and its ide melodic range was emphasized. Its adagio was played with dignity and statelinéss, the andante cantabile was melodiously lovely and the allegro's intricacies were played so well. Haydn’s delightful Quartet in G Ma Jjor was most enjoyable. The menuett was attractively rhythmic and the im- pressive adagio, with its sWeeping breadth of tone, the solo passages of which Miss Mitchell rendered with such depth and purity of tome, was greatly enjoyed. The presto move- ment was lively and pleasing. The performance - was characterized by marked stylé and finish, Miss Mary Lester’s fresh, young Voice gave 4 great deal of pleasuré in her group of Songs rendered most ar- tistically and with a good deal 6f pow- er. Her choice of songs was most happy as well. TFlorian’s Sohg by Godard is a gem, The Pine Tiee was rather unusual and her last two songs, Snowflakes and Love, I Have Won You, were most attractive. Mr. Les- ter accompaniment was exceptionally fine, as might be said of it always. The- evening was altogether one of rare enjoyment and profit and. was under the direction of Miss Mitehell. The programme was as follows: Hymn to Music Quartet in C major (K. £65) Adagio—Allegro Andante cantabile Menuetto ‘Allegro Miss Isabel H. Mitchell, Miss Hfiza- beth A. Lane, Freterick W.
