llERBERT-kEITH CONCERT.

The Herbert X Keith-Conant concert in
the Young Mems Christian Association
hall last night was heard by as fashiona-
bic an auditory as has gathered In the
city during the winter The Eurlber pres
ent occupied nearly all the seats In the
large room. Whatever in the way of COM
pliment may have been indicated by the
quality and quantity of the audience, the
token was deserved. and the three artists
by their very artistic and comprehensive
treatment of their parts certainly be-
slowed as great "a compliment upon their
listeners as the listeners did upon the
artists.
Such performers as Messrs. Herbert and
Keith If criticised favorably or otherwise
are entitled to more than casual com,
ment and the same applies to Mr.. Conant,
but in referring to their work In the lim-
ited space OF newspaper article they
should be given credit for the statement
that any or all of them deserved to have
been heard by critiques of capability.
Herbert showed his usual great resource
and versatility and drew from his cello
all the many qualities shown in the mans
| interpretation of the music. His num-
bers were especially varied in feeling
and were as follows: "Fantaisie Charac-
teristique," by Servals; the "Berceuse," !"
from "Joclyn." by GODDARD, and serenade
tion, and mazourka by Pepper.
Mr.. Keith was in splendid voice. Criti-
cised as baritone he is nevertheless a
tenor-robusto of such even blending that
one is slow to notice it's range, which is
really remarkable. In qualities which
! make a great artist, his voice seems near
ly perfect. He sang the aria "Senza Tet-
| to, Senza Cuna," from ii Guarany, by
Gounod; a rtple number. (O "a Song of
Soloman," by Wood. (b) Noel" by Adam,
and "Sancta Maria" by Faure. and "Eas-
ter Eve" by Gounod, with an obligato by
| Mr.. Herbert.
| Mr.. Conant's performances were more
| than splendid. AS u pianist and though
not SO great an artist as Herbert, a criti-
| cisrn of the latter might be applied to the
| former by using the word piano instead
of cello. Mr.. Conant's great breadth of
| feeling and sensitive or robust execution
| have always made his playing masterful.
| In last nights audience were some who
could appreciate the real merit of his
playing. His was a rare combination of
naturalness and honest execution, blended
| with such skill as to charm the real mil-
sic student He played: t0 "Warum?'
| and tb) serenade, each by Schumann
and tO 1dyl' and (b) Poem" by Mac.
| Dowell.
| The concert was arranged by MRS. G.
| Du Bois Dimmicll.
