The CampobeIIo Concerts.

r. The CampObeIIO Concerts.
The members of the accomplished
Campobello troupe gave the last concert
fof the subscription season last evening
at the Hawaiian Opera House. We do
not remember of any musical company
which has visited Honolulu establishing
themselves SO thoroughly in public esti-
nation as the Campobello company
has done. There was no hesitation
about the matter, the first few numbers
on the opening night being sufficiently
convincing. We have not heard OF a
dissatisfied season ticket holder. In
fact they have felt thay were getting
more than their moneys worth. To the
sympathetic musical mind there is a
pure and serene enjoyment when listen
ing to the music of the classical masters,
played as it has been by the talented
Joran family.
The programme last evening was a
richly-compiled one. 1t opened with
the allegro movement from Mendels-
sohn's 5th Symphonic, for violin and
two pianos, played by Lulu, Pauline and
Elise Joran. 1t was rendered with ex-
ssee n4t f fPi sing end It Y IA s sne9Fed
style.
Elise Joran played a group OF piano
solos with wonderful brilliancy. A
Tarantella," by S. B. Mills, was the
gem of the group. 1t is a snowy COM
position, and the little player completely
captivated the audience with her re-
markable execution. She was encored
With positive enthusiasm.
A violin solo, Souvenir du Bos-
phore," by Vieuxtemp, was the next
number, the player being Pauline Joran.
1t was given in fine style, the numerous
difficulties of execution being overcome
with facility. She was encored, and
gave cradle song by Reber with muted
instrument.
Miss Lulu played in the most fascin.
ating manner piano solo, ''L'Invitation
a la Valse," by Weber-Tausig. 1t was
truly a most artistic display of skill.
The next number, ''Berceuse," by
Gounod, brought out Miss Spring and
the Misses Joran. The former sang very
sweetly, her clear voice blending with |
the violin with telling effect
The first part concluded with a duo |
for two pianos, "Rondo," by Chopin.
played by Elise and Pauline in a most
manner.
After short interval selections were
given from the Barber of Seville" Miss
Spring as "Rosina," Signor Lencioni as
'Bartolo," and Signor CampobeIlo in
he role of Figaro" 1t was a grand
and much appreciated by
he audience.
On Wednesday evening the company
will be rendered Il farewell performance.
