Harry Rowe Shelley organist of the
Fifth Avenue Baptist Church, New
York city, gave, last night, the final
recital in the series of three that have
been held at Union Church. The church
quartet assisted. The singers We're:
Miss Alice NJ Eastman, soprano; Miss
Geraldine G. Damon, contralto; Fred
l. Day, tenor and John H. Howell,
bass. H. D. Sleeper, organist of Union
Church, accompanied the singing. A
large audience listened to delightful
concert.
Mr. Shelley is one of the most if not
the most popular organist in the coun-
try. His original contributions to
church and secular music are not
few The eighth number on the pro-
gram was an Ava Maria, a minuet and
the Dance of Dragon Flies" all his
own compositions. Mr.. Shelley's pedal
ing was very interesting. His rendition
of the Brahms Andante, the second
number on the program was ideally
beautiful, his phrasing bringing out
finely the exquisite sentiment in the
work Each number on the program
was given highly artistic treatment.
Mr.. Shelley is a typical New York
err suaVe and courteous, agreeable in
conversation and most genial.
Mr.. Sleeper's duet for tenor and So
prano will undoubtedly find favor, if it
has not already done SO, with all
lovers of good music. The biblical
words are appropriately set and the
music is not at all commonplace. The
