Musin Concert Co,npar


The audience at the concert given at
Ming's opera house last night by the cels-
brated ~virtuso Musin, was an unusually
large and select one, even the gallery had
its share OF music lovers. Musin proved
himself to be the same Musin Of two years
ago; tho sympathetic qualities of his violin
were never better demonstrated than last
evening. His company supported him
superbly, the performance being from be-
ginning TO end a continuous ovation;
tho sncores were responded to most earn
estly and although the programme carried
only eleven numbers, more than double
that number we're played.
Miss Tanner, who made 30 many friends
among the members of the Encore club two
yenrs ago. was enthusiastically received.
Her voice has the SAME clear sympathetic
quality as of yore, and she has gained
greatly in brilliancy Of execution since her
tour and studies in Europe.
Miss Parmater's singing of the beauti-
full English songs was simply perfection,
and her rich mezZo soprano and clear enun-
citation gained her the warmest apprecia-
ton of the audience.
Herr Scharf, of Leipsic, is an exception
ally brilliant piano %virtuoso, with fine
technique, combined with deep feeling, and
a sympathetic ~accompanist.
The Knabe grand used at the concert was
ono of the finest heard here; the exquisite
tone in the soft passages, and, on the other
hand, the grand fortissimo, showed the
piano ut its very best.
The concert this evening will begin
promptly at 8 O'Clock.
