The piano oIob.


The recital given by the Piano Club
last Thursday evening, was most enjoy
able affair. In the character of the Sc
lecticns and quality of performance 1t was
an agreeable surprise to many Of the audi
ence who were unfamiliar with the excel
lent work that the club Is doing.
The Piano Club was started three years
age in very quiet way and its meetings
were held In Mrs. A. H. Smiths parlors
Since then they have been held at the
homes Of the members, but owing to the
great improvement In the character OF its
work and the consequent increase Of
membership, the accommodations of a
private house seem insufficient for its
members. We understand that 1t has
been proposed 10 rent suitable room for
Its meetings next season, and II is to be
hoped that this win be done, so that .
greater number of persons may be per-
mitted TO enjoy the excellent work which
Is being done by few enthusiastic and
intelligent lovers Of music in our midst.
The last recital was given In Mr.. Frank
z. Friiz's wareroom, which was tastefully
decorated, and contained the two pianos
necessary for the occasion. The program
was short, consisting OF only five num-
bers, but so tastefully selected and well
rendered as to make the audience heartily
wish for more. The opening number, the
feature Of the evening, Mendelssohn's
Concerto, 10 g minor, a long and diff
cult work, was beautifully rendered by
Mrs. Psrisen and Mrs. Smith. Then came
song, Helmund's ''The Daily Question"
by Mrs. Chss. NJ. Dilts, who sang with
her usual sweetness. The audience en-
Enthusiastically demanded an encore, to
which she responed- Next came spright-
'ly Tarantella, by Mrs. Smith and Mrs.
Massey. The fourth number was beau
tiful waltz Of Chopin, and pleased tie
audience, as good waltz well rendered
always will. The performance concluded
with Hungarian Dances, by Brahms, q
striking Illustration Of the weird and fan
tastic character Of much of the Hungarian
dance music. 1t was played by six mem
bers Of the Club.
The precision and accuracy Of the rem
dition, was remarkable. In fact the per-
formance, as whole, was so good that
1t is impossible for one who 10 not an ex-
pert, 10 select certain features as worthy
Of special praise. One fact is certain,
that such organizations have a most slim
ulating effect upon the development Of a
true musical taste in community, and
we hope the Piano Club may continue TO
prosper.
