The daily phoenix. [volume] (Columbia, S.C.) 1865-1878, 1869-04-07

a--G
The concert given last night by Mas ter
Ferdinand CARR, was, in the character OF
the audience who attended, glowing tri-
butte to his undoubted musical genius, but
we fenr it failed to prove q pecuniary sue.
cess We regret this deeply, because, if we
are not misinformed, the young Maestro
could lily afford at this stage of his profes-
slonal education to meet with disappoint-
ment OF this kind, athis own home; and we
regret it for IN additional and, perhaps
selfish reason. and that is, that our citizens.
VIII" are universally known as liberal pa
irons Of the fine arts and accomplishments
OF life, failed to do themselves Justice ON
! this occasion.
Master Carri must not be discourn ped
however. There may have been many causes
unknown to thepublic why the concert failed
TO attract such an audience as it deserved.
For this lie must make allowance and re-
serve to himself the satisfaction of knowing
that those who were present went away moro
than eratified ut the entertainment, and
looking forward to the day when he will
receive his just need of praise in larger
sphere or professional display.
The programme WAS well selected and
faithfully rendered, and where there is 80
much to praise, We hardly know how to
! choose any one feature for special praise;
tut trusting to the expressed commenda-
ton of tho audience, we should say that
fieuxtemps' Last Rose of Summer struck
the most sympathetic chord of Master Oar
rl's listeners. In this piece, his execution
was not only fne but brilliant, and the
delicacy with which the variations to this
ever popular melody were delivered, gave
promise that the bow in his hands, with
study and practice, would become as great
power as it was in those of the com
poser himself, or Ole Bull. The piano in
terludes of Madame Carri were very aocep-
table, and the trio rendition of Arditi's
"Ilma Waltz" by mother and son, aided
on the viola by Prof. Koepper, was loudly
applauded. In Master CARR, we find con-
spicuous evidences of great musical genius.
and we hope that future OF brilliauoy
and fame will crown the lad.
