CONCERT.
Brehany Company Is Highly Spoken of
Everywhere.

The Brehany Concert company will
appear at the university auditorium
tonight. The Colorado Springs Gazette
has the following to say about the COM
pany:
1t was a lyceum audience which filled
the Temple last evening to hear the
Louise Brehany Concert company, the
first attraction in the lyceum course.
That is to say the audience was COM
posed OF the highest culture OF Colora-
do Springs and the fact that the artists
that the concert was an artistic sue
cess.
Louise Brehany, by her former con-
nection with Edouard Remep VI, Sousa's
band and numerous other arrangements
which have always demanded the best
talent, has made for herself a wide rep-
utation. but one no more extensive than
deserved. Her voice is one Of the rich
est and sweetest heard in Colorado
Springs for many a moon, and her hear
ers will long remember the lullaby
which was rendered at her second ap-
pearance, and the splendid rendition OF
THE Last Rose of Summer" Miss Bre-
hany is particularly skillful and pleas
ing in her lighter numbers.
Mr.. w. Guillaume Sauvlet is too
widely known as a pianist to need par
ticular mention. His selections, all OF
them classic, were perfectly exe-
+cuted and the artists could not posi-
bly, have had a o able accompanist.
