Throughout the evening the work OF
the chorus was excellent. The men sang
with precision that was remarkable
taking the slightest movement of
Director Clymer's baton as a signal &c
| begin or to cease. to swell into fortis
simo, or from that 70 pianssimo tone.
The vivace movements were not as
sprightly as the director evidently de-
sired them to be, but few more months
of zsRlous rehearsal will accomplish al
that is desired In that line The members
we're peculiarly fitted to the occasion and
each was heartily applaudei.
Before the chorus made its appearance
last evening large orchestra composed
of members Of the Opera touse orches
ira. Grace Orchestra, and the orchestr.
Of West Presbyterian Church played
selection from said Pasha, under th,
direction of G Il Lauer Of PHILADELPHIA
The orchestra was seated on the stage
which was beautifully arranged as a pal
ace scene. fhe front OF the stage wa
completely hidden by a handsome banl
OF potted plants which had been arranged
there BY A. E Rollo.
An octette with pleasing bass solo
"The Farmers Life for Me" was 81
well received that It had to be repeated
Other appreciated features were a quar-
tette with solo by w. j. Fisher, "Oft ii
the Silly Night" "Gipsey Life,
chorus which contained bass and teno
solos BY ]. A. Ward, NJ Conway and
e. w, Gallagher
Miss Katherine Clendenning. contralte
Of Philadelphia, was the so lost Of tn
evening and on her FIRST selection she wa
recalled and presented with hardsom
bouquet. Miss Clendenning has 3 ric
contrslto voice and sings with much ez
preston. Her solos last evening, how
ever, did not display Der full ability an
cultivated voice to full advantage.
Professor Frank Steubgen, the leade
of the Opera House orchestra, was tn
violin soloist aud he was greeted by lou
applause he played "Fantsise Caprice,
by Vieuxtemps, with artistic skill an
grace. The soloist was accompanied b
an orchestra Of fourteen pieces and tn
made the brilliant solo much more effec
i've. Professor Steubgen is soloist {
rare ability
