annual Music Festival of Students Of Yale Department of Musfc-Fine Pro-
 gramme SpIendidIy Given.
 Woolsey hall was well filled last night at the concert of the students in 'he Yale department of music. This con- cert has come to be an annual affair of considerable importance. When it was first inaugurated comparatively few were interested outside of the friends and relatives of the performers. Now the city puts on it's best clothes and comes, and, while it doesn't understand it all, maybe, it gets a good deal of pleasure out of the evening. The programme given last night and the way it was given was a great credit to the department and showed, incidentally, that Yale has a remark ably able staff of teachers. A fine or chestra for the accompaniments, con- ducted by Prof. Parker, lent greater dignity to the concert. All sides of the department, except the vocal, were rep resented and all were equally good. It was difficult at times to realize that it was the work of students, so clean
 were the performances. Nothing in the evening was better than the admirable exposition given by Walter RueI Cowles of the first movement of Bee
 thoven's c minor concerto for plano and orchestra. MT. Cowles, who IS a junior in college and with many calls on his time, has made remarkable pro sVa t, ek,, Prof. Knight. He played the move nlent last night with clear under standing of its meaning and with a great deal of authority. His technique was clean and fluent. His work prom ises we'll for the future.
 The other representatives of the piano department were Miss Jennie Margaret Hawley, Miss Frances Louise Kirchoff and Miss Saidee Winifred Cooper, who played Bach's concerto in D minor for the piano, with orchestral accompaniment. It was broad and dignified performance in which the en-
 semble work was unvaryingiy good.
 Miss May Louise Stanley played the
 violin concerto in B minor by Camille Saint Saens. Miss Stanley is one of
 Prof. Troostwyk's best pupils and has lappeared in these concerts before. She showed in her performance last night that she has made a remarkable i'm provement in the year. Her technique has developed and with that she has
 learned to put vigor and feeling into
 her work. Her most effective move
 ment was the Andantino. Miss Hen drika Troostwyk was heard in the
 charming Fantasie Caprice, op. Il, for violin by Vieuytemps, in which she
 showed very beautiful tone and free and quiet ungirlish technique. Both Miss Stanley and Miss Troostwyk were presented with large punches of flow CTS at the end of their selections. Prof. Harry B. Jepson's department
 of organ playing was represented by Leonard Walter Wood and Seth Dan iels Bingham. MT. Wood played Caesar Franck's Piece Heroique;" Mir. Bfnb- ham, Boellman's "Fantasie Dialogue, for organ and orchestra. MT. Bingham
 brought out In his selection, the last one on the programme the full power of the great Newberry organ and showed himself master of all the intric- acies of the wonderful machine.
 Egbert Shepard Marsh was the only
 representative of the creative depart
 ment of the school which is under the
 care of Prof. Parker. His concert over ture in E minor was a vigorous and
 melodious composition, well scored and
 original. The composer conducted his own work. Two arrangements by the class in composition were played by the orchestra.
 In brief intermission in the pro- gramme President Hadley announced that the Lockwood piano scholarship had been divided between Walter Ruel Cowles and Miss Frances Louise Kir- choff, and that the Lockwood vocal
 scholarship had been awarded to Miss Ruth Jathrop.
