AMUSEMENTS.

MIR. SHAKESPEARE'S LECTURE-RE-
CITAL.-A large audience greeted Mr.. VIM.
Shakespeare of London at the Universalist
Church last night. He is a vocal teacher
of prominence in London, and he has
taught many American singers and teach
ers. Perhaps the best known Of his pupils
in this city is Miss Katie V. Wilson, and it
was through her instrurhentality that Mr..
Shakespeare came to this city. He gave
what he called a lecture-rectal, and in his
talk which he divided into two parts, he
spoke first, upon Voice Production and
later upon Execution and Interpretation
MIR. Shakespeare is not pleasing speaker,
his voice having high pitch and his En-
glish accent being very marked. His re-
marks upon the art of breathing, the con-
troll of the voice through the respiratory
organs, the great value of iegato singing,
the method of tone production and the ne
cessity of understanding how to phrase
properly and to give expression to the SEN
timent of the composition sung were
such as are made by every good vocal
teacher, and contained no original thought
or expression. They were interesting to
both teachers and vocal students, because
to the former they We're review of their
own work, and to the latter in that they
told them what they had done and what
they had yet to accomplish. To the general
pubic MS tax was attractive, as are al
ways the utterances of a specialist who Is
thoroughly familiar with his subject, Of
which his auditors are entirely ignorant.
MT shakespeare MADE ms lecture enter
tanning by relating numerous stories OF
celebrated artists of long ago, which he told
in an attractive way Between the two
parts of his lecture Mr.. Shakespeare sang
selections from Mozart and Handel. The
audience gave him double encore for his
vocal work. He played his own accompani-
ments and proved himself an accomplished
pianist.
NJ. CHARLES BISCHOFFS RECITAL.
Monsieur Charles Bisch3ff's recital of dra-
matte, lyric and ballad music, at the hall
of the National Rifles Armory last even
ing, proved a decided musical success. The
artists presented were MIR Philip Dalmas,
baritone, of the Societe Humbert de Ro-
mans, Paris, Mr.. Victor Da Prato, violin
list, of Brussels, and Mr. John F. Braun.
tenor, of Philadelphia. Mir. Harvey Muir
ray who was TO have been the accompan-
list, being i'll, Mr.. Dalmas took the place
and accompanied himself and the other ar
fists. Both the vocal artists are eminent
in their parts and fully sustained their rep
utations- Mr.. ia Pratp. the violinist is
pupil of Ysaye, the great master, and
his performance was fully commensurate
with the expectations of the audience. The
performance as q whole was greatly appre-
ciated and literally applauded.
