Persian Garden" a song cycle arranged

tain1y enjoyed a treat, which will not

which, by the way, is from the pen OF
a woman, Liza Lebanann of New York.
has created quite stir in the musical
circles of different parts of the East,
and the prospect of hearing it in our
city awakened much interest among our
musical people. That they were more
than gratified was shown by the en-
thusiastic encofes after the rendering
Of each number. The composition is
most interesting one-artistic to a de-
gree The difficulties of both the words
and music require the most careful
thought and Interpretation, which can
be given only by a thorough artist. Miss
MARY WAlldiilS, Will Tic III 0-iihC 'o4SS,
gave an ideal Interpretation of the So
prano role Mrs. Carroll Nicholson was
most satisfying in the rendering Of her
two beautiful solos. We were fortunate
in having Mr.. Girard, who has sung
the basso part a score Of times in New
York, and his work was most finished.
And we were proud of our tenor, Mr..
Owens. who sang so ably the most diff
cult tenor solos, and seldom, If ever,
has he been heard to better advantage
Mrs Pommer deserves great credit for
the able manner in which she assisted
the artists, and certainly added to the
success Of the day.
