MUSICALE AT MRS. TIP. KELso's.
One of the brilliant musical events of
the week was the Staples violin recital
given at the charming home of Mrs. r.
p. Kelso. on North Emporia avenue. on
Thursday afternoon. Despite the most
wretched weather "a large audience was
present and were rewarded by an adj /
mirable selection of standard works from
Mendelssohn's composition. The first /
number on the program was the great /
violin concerto in Z minor of which the I
first two movements were played. This /
concerto was begun in 1893. two years /!
after Mendelssohns marriage. but not /
completed until six years later. It is /
the masters own love tale, set in per /
feet frame of musical story. The ale /
gro is the first chapter and IN it one I
reads the doubt ana hope the delicate /
remis. the poetic forces, the hesitant APP
proaches, the gracious responses Of the /
springtime Of life. The andante tells the (
story of welded lOve-the pulses a little {
slower. but the melody richer and fuller. /
The finale continues the story and ends I
in a triumphant exutation.
Mr.. Staples Interpretation Of the an !
dante was of perfect eloquence. and Mrs (
Kelso, who was at the piano gave I
beautiful reading of the accompaniment. {
Mrs. S. w Shattuck sang "On Songs .
Light Pinions." one Of Mendelssohn's (
particularly characteristic and beautiful /
and one which is especially +.

St. Paul with great clearness and taste.
