~, Vue so'olsiS, Miss Wolf, Mrs. GoSlin and
MISS MISS Il lSser, Mr.. halloran ana Mr.. Cane.
ueepehed the impressions made upon he
puoho tuesday night, as outlined by us
sesseiIay' The gem of the whole work
unuouoltoIy.ls the number assigned 10 The
Vou.ta''o; Miss Elmlna Wolf While the
SuHus lduy was not at her bes',
SFeat 10 near her rich voice as sha nonrs,1
Iorlh the tones that yisibly moved
me audience. She had two advances,
FIRST, her number in itself was one thst
would be appreciated when sung nv
an Indifferent voice, and second, She has
the rare gut OF genuine cOntralto organ.
whose tones are tull of pathoS, and Mould
move Tue coidest audience to Qmckenine
recognition.
IL was with regret that the friends of Mr.
" ear schmidt noticed that he WAS sull
suffering from the hoarseness that pre-.
vented MS hne bass voice from being
heard. The soloists were MOI
forgotten, and rare flowers were offered in
aprofuSion that must have been gratifying.
- We can most conscienuously congratulate
Dallas IN its possessing a director of such
marked ability as Mr.. Frees has shown Ia
his thorough control OF both orchestra and
chorus. The baton in the hands OF a
less able man would several times
nave been poSerless to prevent a very ap.
parent break. That Mr.. Frees has been
able, IN the short space of six weeks, to 50
completely drill his chorus in the not easy
work, speaks more loudly in his praise than
any word OF ours can DO.
In conclusion, now that the Dallas Spn.
geriest is numbered with the events OF the
past, as We look over the influence that
These three concerts will have on the musl
cal people OF the city and the
state We caA but feel regret thai
such an orchestra as is
rarely gathered together, directed by an
able leader, should have been satisfied with
presenting only light marches and over
lures to The exclusion of the
higher works. Much good would have
been accomplished, many ears would
have had their first lesson in true orchestral
music II even one movement Of u symphony
10y some standard writer had been placed
upon one OF the programmes.
Taken all in all the, SWngertest has been
u musical success, in so Tar asst has afforded
pleasure TO many.
