What in all probability will be one of

THE MUSICAL COLUMN

Music is made special feature at the
services of St. Paul's Episcopal church.
In Mr.. John c. Dunster, the oreauist and
choirmaster, the church has amusician of
which the congregation sSjustly proud,
Mr.. Dunster occupied a number of import
ant musical positions on the other side of
the Atlantic; among others he was the
musical director of the Royal Bavarian
church il London, and conductor of the
Fast Twickenham Choral society under the
patronage of the duchess of Teck. There
is an exceptional amount of talent at Mr..
Dunster's command, for the mixed choir
numbers no less than thirty-five voices.
The quartet, consisting of Madame Mar
tinez, soprano; Mrs. Nuns on, alto; Mr.
Barr, tenor. and Marion Wigmore, bass, is
both in point of individual voices and con-
certed singing one of the best in the city.
Madame Martinez is too we'll known a
singer here to require any expatiation on
her powers. for she is frequently heard in
concerts and oratorio.
Since September, 1894, the list of classi-
cal works performed in st. Paul's church
is both interesting and imposing, as fol-
lows: Mozart's Twelfth and Seventh
masses. Haydns Third and Sixteenth,
Councils Messe Solennelle, Weber's Jubi-
lee Cantata, Rossini's Stabat Mater, Mem
delssohn's As the Heart Beats, selections
from Handel's Messiah, Haydn's Creation,
Mendelssohn's Elijah and Hymn of Praise.
Hummels Alma Virgo. Mendelssohn's
Hear My Prayer, Wesley's Blessed Be the
God and Father; j. Baptiste Calkins',
Vests and Martins services and Sir John
Stainer's Crucitxion aud o Clap Your
Hands have also been produced. 1t will
thus be seen that member of the st.
Paul's choir had an opportunity of becom-
ing familiar with the grandest oratorios
AMI church music.
The rector of the church. the Rev. John
Gray. is himself skllful musician, and
both he and Mrs. Gray take much interest
and pains in the church's music. A most
important source is we'll watched and de-
veloped by them. Every week they con-
duct practices of from dozen to twenty
single boys, who thus early are made ia mill
lar with church music and very soon be-
come valuable members of the choir.
There is no sweeter voice than the boys
treble, but it is only such interest as the
Rev. John Gray shows that will attract and
keep the attention of the youngster. The
heartness of the congregational sing ing is
one of the pleasing features of the church's
music. which should not bs overlooked.
Next Sunday the music at the Emmanuel
Presbyterian church will be reviewed,
