NUSICAL NOTES

There was look of panied surprise on
che faces of the Mozart symphony Club
last evening when they took their places
In Unity Church for the first number on
their programme. The expression was
quite excusable, too, for the audience was
disgracefully small, and it must have
been an unusual experience for the artists
who compose the club to find so few
music lovers in city of nearly hundred
thousand nhabitants.
The programme was popular, too; that
10, it was not seriously classical, and the
rendition was very superior.
In the concerted numbers the quartette
showed themsev to be artists and mu-
sicians as well; each played his instru-
ment with the skill OF master, and the
ensemble was delightful, particularly in
the Rubenstein andante. The character
istics of the viola d'amour, which has
the sweetness of the violin and the rich
ness of the viola, were beautifully shown
in the prize song from Tannhauser, and
Mr.. Stoelzer is as much at home with the
curious instrument as with the viola
which he plays in the quartette.
There are other interesting instruments,
the Da GAMBIA viola and the triumphal
played to good advantage last
evening. Miss Braems and Miss
DR.. Veille assisted the club, the former
with an aria from Freischutz, the latter
with recitation, which was out OF place
and disturbed the harmony OF the pro-
gramme. Later in the evening the ladies
sang duet from Martha.
Mr.. Lund's handling of the violin is
particularly fine, and in the De Beriot
ballet scene he showed exquisite dainti-
ness of touch and tone. The concert was
thoroughly enjoyable, and the perform
ance, especially in the concerted music,
was finished and artistic. This evening
