Deserved Applause,

the well known local violinist, was
more successful than any event of its
kind heard in Honolulu of late. There
has since Mrs. Bishops departure
been n dearth of musical events and
the one last night was a most happy
interruption.
audience which in view of TIE fact
that there were several counter at.
fractions must be said to be a very
good one. The old families OF the city
and the musical circles were well rep.
resented and the audience was more
enthusiastic than is generally the case
at local concerts. Their enthusiasm
was well placed.
A Skilled violinist.
Mr. ANIME showed himself last night
to be not only a skilled and conscier.
tious violinist but he fairly surprised
many of his hearers by showing forth
in several of his numbers a feeling
and magnetism which he was not
generally known to possess. With
his excellent European training he has
acquired a purity Of tone and a con.
scientious care of detail which place
him above any of the local violinists.
This combined with the real feeling
which he showed himself to be the
possessor of in his performance last
night made 1t evident to his audience
that this city is now in possession OF
a viOlinist who can and will play class
ical music as It should be played with
purity and ConsCientiousness. which
fact Is so much more to be appreciated
as there has been a good bit Of muir.

often much too difficult.

Mrs. Turner's second number,

Thomas, is one of her old favorltes

beautiful piece although 1t perhaps Is
excelled by the piece by LiHz also on
the words of Gothe's "Keunst du das
Lund," which piece by the way has
also been sung her by Mrs. Turner.
Concert Was Success.
Upon the whole the concert was a
success and Honolulu can rest easy in
the faith that there now Is here a VIC.
linist who has sufficient technique to
play the classics and who, which IL as
important, has received training
which enables him to understand them
and bring out all the rare touches
which are their special charm.
