Pupil Recital.

Pupil Recital.
If the Aessrs. Dessauer and Troostwyck
give another pupil recital this season they
will have to engage larger hall, for their
music room was inadequate to the demands
of the crowd which took possession of 1t
yesterday afternoon. The interesting two
hours would easily haye become four had
all the eneores met with q response.
The pupils of this admirable school of
music did much to redeem New Haven
amateurs from the commonplace. Their
work throughout was characterized by
enthusiasm and sense of security which
comes from q perfect fundamental train
ing,by masters of the art of mueic.
Miss Carrie Kimberley of Danbury, q
child in years bot nat In Intelligence,
played flute solo with the ease of virtu-
oso. Miss Marion Richards showed the
beneficial results of conscientious study,
combined with great deal of natural tai
emit, in her piano solo, the Chopin Polo
naise in 9 minor. Miss Alice Cheney
played the GODDARD Mozourka with deli
cious rhythm and grace. This very young

cal gift.
Quite a surprise was given to the audi
encs by Miss Mabel Hepburn, who played
fantasis by Thalberg which demands a
high degree of technical excellence, which
this young pianiste possesses. The violin
pupils of NJ. Tyoostwyk did much credit
to their master.
Master Donald McLane did some very
clever bowling in his violin solo, an air by
Dancla. There ia musical material in this
clever little fellow. Miss Ssgourney
play ed q vieux temps fsntasie with an ex-
uberance Of sentiment seldom heard In
an amateur. Mrs. Cass and the Msssrs.
Limburger and Elliot deserve q word of
communication. Their work was of a very
high order.
Iiss Hey sullivan's lovely soprano voice
was heard to good advantage in the srs-
tanned tones Of Elsa's dream from I.ohen-
grin. Herr Schaub, with whom
Miss Sullivan is studying, has done
much to develop this singers voice.
Mrs. Fechter- Gilbert sang the Meyer,
Hsllmud "Magic Song" With warmth,
color and aesthetic finish. The
last number on the program, q trio by
Hermann, was admirably rendered BY
Nessrs. Troostvyck, Elliott and Limbur-
ger.
In the audience were Professor and Mrs.
