NEr. Perahn,s Cancert.

Mr.. Ernst Perabo's concert this evening
will attract powerfully the understanding
lovers of music in Portland Mr.. Perabo has
won an exceedingly enviable place in the first
rank of Boston pianists, he is sound ,discrimi-
mating ana wholly sympathetic musician, and
possesses an adequate and effective technique.
Misunderstanding justly the works of the
masters, Bach, Handel, Beethoven as the
heslthful and mighty beginnings of the rich
and extensive possessions of the musical art.
Mr.. Perabo is peculiarly ready to see the
merit of modern composers and to interpret
their works with spirit and sympathy. The
programme of this evening exemplfies
this generous and interesting phase of Mr.
Perabo's musical character. X. Scharwenks.
whose Valse Caprice, OPP. 81, appears upon thu
programme, is young composer whose writ
ings have already been received with dis
tinguished favor in Germany. and have be-
come known to Boston audiences through Mr..
Perabos playing Bargiel and Rheinberger
are also composers, modern in their style which
is nevertheless we'll founded upon the lasting
traditions of the masters. The programme
presents much variety, and will give our Port
land musicians the opportunity to hear to much
advantage the brilliant, expressive and solid
playing Of Mr.. Perabo. The appearance of
Mr.. Kotzschmar in two duets, the Fantasia by
Rheinbsrger and Memberships Allegro Bill
liant will add greatly TO the pleasure aud satis-
faction of the audience. Miss Bryant's round
and sweet voice will be heard to advantage in
her selections. 1t seems scarcely needful that
it be pointed out how genuine and artistic a
pleasure is 10 store for those who avail them
selves of this opportunity to hear Mr.. Perabo-
a conscientious, thoroughly trained pianist
who directs his rich and spontaneous gift of
musical expression By the most uusel6sh
devotion to his art. The programs e is ar
ranged as follows:

There are doubtless nany who have never had
the pleasure of talking through this instru-

such there be, if they will drop into Lancaster
Hall they will see the photograph and the tele-
phone both in working order and have chance
to speak through them both for one price Of ad-
mission. The former instrument is proving
very popular. Yesterday afternoon co npany
of ladies visited the hail and ose of them sang
a song which was produced very plainly. She
had sharp voice and by pitching it high it was
repeated by the photograph much to the pleas
urs of the company.
Today the children of the Female Orphan
Asylum will visit the hall by invitation of Mr.
