 Those who will attend the piano re- cital to be given at Steinert hall next Saturday afternoon at o'clock will have the pleasure of listening to Fred erick Guilford, the flutist, as soloist Contrary to common impression, the piano accompaniment gives the same sympathetic support to a soloist that a person does who plays directly upon the piano. The object of this instru- ment is to supply technique, that &C., complishment which is gained only through years of hard, close applica- tion to that end. The adjustment is such that the musical temperament is transmitted to the instrument in the usual way, with the added pleasure ot perfect technique. The attendance al these recitals is very large. In Boston the capacity of Steinert hall fails tc accommodate all who wish to hear, and people are turned away. MT. Edgar who has charge of these New Haven recitals, reports very encouraging in. te-est, and those who come to scoff re. main to praise. The programme Sat. urday will include classical as well as modern compositions.
