Coming Musicales.

Local musicians have had the field en-
tlrely to themselves during the past
week. A number Of concerts and musi-
Gales were given and several recitals, all
by st. Paul artists or ST. Paul students
OF tho recitals perhaps, one of the most
meritorious was that of Miss Bergh.
pianist. Miss Bergh has received her
training from Prof G. G.. Titcomb. AL
though lacking the experience of Mrs F.
L. Hoffman,, she has frequently shared
honors with her as accompanist when the
names of the two have appeared on the
same programme. Her work as Soloist is
not SO familiar to a ST. Paul audience
and doubtless the people who enjoyed her
recital last Monday night at the Peo-
pies church, found the young pianist's
work something Of a revelation She has
sure technique, brilliant execution and
musical temperament. Among other
things she played the three '"Tone
Arthur Bergh. They are called Rage"
Sadness" and "Dign 'ty.'' They are de-
c1dedly ambitious compositions and prom
Use much for the future of the composer.

st. Matthew's vested choir Of boys and
young men gave an excellent concert
Thursday evening at Churchill hail. ST.
Anthony Park John Leopold Fenwick
organized the choir last fall and it is
under his direction. Mr. Fenwick has
some good soprano voices and few ex-
cellent leading altos in his choirs, and the
tenors while not particularly strong, are
of good quality. The first part of the
programme was sacred Among other
things, the choir sang with excellent ef-
feet Gounod's "Send Out Thy Light and
three subjects from S.ainer's Cruelty
ion," "The Mystery of the Intercession,"
GOD So Loved The World" and Come
Unto Me-" the subjects being arranged
by Prof. Fenwick. The solos in the last
movement were carried by Walter South
all, soprano, and Raymond Meek, alto.
Harris more Love To Thee" an en-
semble number, was sung by Herbert
Todd, Walter Southall, Fred Southall
and Horace Todd.
In addition to the choral work Albert
Ingram played a violin number, and j. r.
Jameson, baritone, sang.

which was given Thursday evening at
the Central Park M. 3. church under
the direction of Miss Mona O. Suesa, as
sisted by Miss Hopes orchestra, will be
repeated next Friday evening at the First
Baptist church. The rendition of the
oratorio Thursday night was an entire
success. The chorus of sixty voices is q
well balanced and well drilled one and

preparation did excellent work The
soloists were Miss E. I. Weimar, soprano;
Miss e. Wood, contralto E. F. Wood
worth, bass and D. Price, tenor, and
their various parts were acceptably sus-
tanned The orchestra under the direc-
ton Of Miss Nellie A. Hope, did some ex.
cellent work.

by the choir Cf the Church of st. John
the Evangelist this evening at 1880. The
