A PRIMA DONNA.
Mrs. Katzenberger's Concert Last
Night.

Last evening the farewell concert to
Mrs. Anna Katzenberger was given at
the Casino hall The auditory con
sisted of the cream Of the fashionable
society of San Antonio. and the hall
presented a bewildering picture of fair
faces and elegant toilets. The tai
ented kempa Ladies' orchestra opened
the concert, selecting the Merry
wives OF Windsor" for an overture,
and "a the last strains of this de
servedly popular composition died away
a burst OF spontaneous applause broke
from the delighted and critical audi
ence. Miss Eva kempa then gave DE
Berlot's sixth concerto. and her clever
rendition OF II on the violin called forth
the highest eneomiums. "Cabaletto,"
from "r.rnani,n was sung by Professor
Guerrero. This gentleman has n line
baritone, but, owing to evident nervous
ness, he did not appear to his best adj
vantage. A concerto for two violins, by
| Professors Marx and Mendelssohn, was
n fair performance. Mrs. +. Hern and
| Miss Marie Lacosto sang the vocal duet,
.Ionelv Maiden" beautifully, and both
the ladies received floral tributes of APP
probation at its conclusion. Posi-
| bly, the finest panOiorte solo
ever heard in san Antonio
was when Professor Albert Pieclonka
gave Beethoven's famous Grande Sonata
| Appasionata. The gentleman held his
audience spel-bound by his facile execu-
ton and delicacy Of touch. This was
possibly most observable In the first
movement and the finale. AT the CON
clusion of Professor PiecZonka's solo,
Mrs. Anna katzenberger, the beneficiary,
sang solo. Her appearance was the
| signal for tumult of applause, which
| grew perfect, rapturous after the audi
| snce had heard the sCena and aria from
| Der treisChuetZ.' Mrs. kaiZenberger
was never heard to greater advantage
| than last night, and she astonished many
| Of her bearers ut the degree Of dramatic
fervor she exhibited, and many augures
of n successful future were made by COM
| petent critics who heard her clear sOpra-
| no. 1t is needless to add that the lady
was enthusiastically recalled and over
whelmed with bouquets. Mis- Helena
| kempa played nocturne as cello solo
spenUidly, the volume of tone devel-
| oped by this young lady from the instru-
ment being MS remarkable rs her eXecu-
| tive ability. A string Guartette by
Messrs. Marx. McAllister, Mendelssohn
and Miss II. kempa was also peculiarly
line. The concert concluded with
"Diamond Cut Diamond Mrs. KatZen-
berger taking the soprano and Professor
A. H. Barbour the baritone in the char
acter OF CHARLES" Mrs. katzenberger
excelled herself, and WAS highly APP
plduded as was also Professor Barbour,
who exhibited. however. n certain de-
gree Of diilidence scarcely in keeping
with the role he assumed. This fare
well concert may be recorded rs II huge
success. and in the arduous profession in
which Mrs. katzenberger has embarked
she has no lack of friends to wish her
