INCREASED ST CCEss THE MATINEE YES
TERDAY.
A very perceptibc addition to the musi-
cal strength of the festival was manifest on
yesterday, in chorus voices and in solo tai
ent. Much enthusiasm prevailed through
out and every one in attendance was more
than satisfied with the entertainments
given. There is no State in the Union
So imbucd with the love of music in COM
parison to its inhabitants as Vermont. Its
green hills and mountains are forever echo
ing with the songs that spring naturally to
the lips and wcllup from the hearts of those
who dwell in their shadows May she ever
keep her laurels green and wear them with
grace
THE MORNING.
In the morning the chorus met for re-
hcarsal and the day was opened by prayer
from Rev. DR.. Harris and the singing of
good old Hamburg" The forenoon was
then well improved in earnest work. These
rehearsals serve to prove to all the great
power and skill of Carl Zerrahn as a must
cal conductor. His classes cannot but feel
inspired with his own inspiration and bend
to his will with an ease and precision truly
wonderful.
TIE MATINEE.
The matinee in the afternoon was the
best yet offered, and presented fine pro-
gramme to full house. The opening
overture, Schubert" was executed in Il
decidedly exquisite manner by the Ger
mania band This company is composed
of artists, everyone, and renders everything
it undertakes in perfect time every instru-
ment blending in delicious harmony with
the rest.
The chorses were an Improvement upon
the day before in execution, and the solo
and chorus of Nazareth" by Gounod. in
the beginning of the afternoon, was very
fine The solo was sung by John " Hall,
Esq, of Bennington, basso of good re-
pute, and was finely executed.
The richest honors of the entertainment
were borne by Miss Belle IIuntoon, of Cut
tngsville. This young lady has voice of
rare promise, and received ilattering re-
ception from the audience in the song
Come the Bark is showing" She respond
ed to well-meritcd encore by singing, II
love my love-" in a decidedly bewitching
manner. Her voice is rich, round and full,
and withal very pleasing to the car.
Miss Ella Earl young prodigy of some
ten years, sang Il am Coming very
sweetly and with wonderful confidence for
her age. Bassini's song of cave Maria
was well rendered by Miss frankie Burt,
as was also a Good night song. by Mrs.
