- I'M, Haydn, GODDARD, Weber and Noliet,
Il list of names not to be eScelled AM
rarely equaled, especially at what Is
known as a students recital.
1t would be difficult to discriminate
but one III the most eXactins selections
was the List concerto in hat, played
oy Miss Hope Edna Hopkins. Miss HOP
kins is young pianiste with very
promising future. to judge by her worh
last night. She has temperament. foret
and a degree of technique that rendered
her Interpretation of the difficult con-
certo among the best numbers on the
program. Mrs Suzanne McDonald-Hop-
kins delighted her hearers in ner mas
terful reading of LISTS Hungarian
rhapsodie No. u. In writing his rhap-
sodies List evidently did so with the
impression that they would BE attempt

and proved quite capable of HANDLING
the heavy score.
Mr. Paul Sperry gave delightful rem

her superb style. and Mr.. Anton Kaspar.
who with Mrs. Lucy W. Stoddard gave
Grieg's Andante. opus 40. in such an
artistic manner that the number had to
