The Wheeling daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1865-1903, 1883-03-16

Miss Mamie Moore, Of Wheeling, made
her debut on this occasion, and, consider.
ing that her little piece was the first she
had ever learned, did herself and her
teacher great credit. The position OF the
hand and touch were excellent, and exc.
cution very neat. But better than all, was
the musical intelligence manifested in Civ.
ing a decided character 10 the composition
expressive Of its title. In course OF time
with persevering study the little Miss bids
fair 10 become fine player.
Miss Mamie Gloninger, of Allegheny City,
Pa, has a meZzo-soprano OF good compass
and sweet in tone. She executed her song
with great correctness and considerable
spirit, and since her last appearance has
made marked improvement.
Miss Jennie Brent, OF Powhatan Pt., Ohio,
read poem entitled, keep nothing from
Mother" The young lady's voice is clear
and articulation distinct, she also read
slowly, and with intelligent expression.
Miss Lille O'Brien, Of Toledo, Ohio,
played her impromptu with spirit and ami.
nation, but her touch lacks delicacy, and
she will have to pay great attention to
meditation in tone.
Miss Martha Lahey, OF New York City,
has a sweet mezzo soprano, with good,
low notes, and will make pleasing singer
as soon as she acquires sufficient self.
possession.
Miss Doxie Moore, OF Wheeling, W. Va,
read poem by Longtellow, with good
enunciation ami expression.
Miss Maggie Brennan, OF New York,
gave very good rendition OF an "Idylle,"
by Lebert. Her style is easy and bright,
execution neat, tone sweet and firm, but
she does not, as yet, seize the musical idea
| ina composition. But with careful culture
this will, without doubt, be developed.
Miss Jennie Glenn, oil Pittsburgh, Pa,
has made a great advance since she gave
the audience her first song. She has a
charming soprano, and rendered her
Serenade in delicate, finished style. She
is also beginning to take her high notes
with greater precision, and consequently,
with far better effect than formerly. When
frequent repetition in singing before an
audienceshall haveconquered her timidity,
she will be able to accomplish much more
than she has at present attained.
Miss Blanche Warehouse, Of Wheeling,
did herself great credit by giving Lebert's
"Nocturne" in excellent style.
Miss Fannie Ahl, Of Pittsburgh, read a
most pathetic poem, descriptive OF trial
scene at an Irish court in '9s. Miss Ahl has

OF elocutionary training is, as yet, too
prominent The height Of art Is to make
itself unnoticed in It's truth to nature. But
this is most rare, even in professional
readers, and demands that order OF talent
which Is akin to genius.
Miss Fannie Robinson, OF Wheeling,
continues to improve steadily. Commenc-
ing with voice that was exceedingly i'm,
mature, by dint OF judicious training and
great care on the part OF her teacher that
which gave 80 little promise, has become a
most agreeable voice which the young lady
manages with considerable skill and hne
effect. In Schuber's beautiful melody she
delighted her hearers with the purity Of
her lone, and the smoothness oil her execu.

the general finish Of the entire song.
Miss Grace Jones, OF Ohio, did remark
ably well In her piano solo, playing not
only with correctness, but with ease and in
a polished style, which gives bright hopes
for the future. $50, -,
