FISHER Ships GREAT VOICE
sOLOIST AND READER WITH THE
OTTERBEN QUARTETTE-
Voices in Male Quartette Good, But
Selections Too Frivolous to Be
High Class.

The Otterbein male Quartette and
Miss Fisher Shipp, solOist and reader,
appeared at the GOOdand opera house
Saturday evening. It was the first en-
tertainment in the seasons lecture
course for GOodIand, and owing to
the change OF date, and hence a lack
Of time in advertising the event, the
attendance was small The talent ex-
hibited was high class. and it is hard
to reconcile some Of the worthy per
fOrmances with the undemonstrative
character Of the audience, except upon
the theory that the music was too
good.
The anomaly in the character Of
the Otterbein organization is in lay
ing stress upon Miss Fisher Shipp as
a reader and not as a soloist- Her
voice is the one thing Of all that viii
be remembered Her performances
were practically mOmentary, yet day
after day those notes viii lead US to
what is good and beautiful. They
were dazzling, passionate, yet in a way
eternal Her reading Of "Sombra''
was excellent as imitation is able TO
make, but her singing is a permanent
creation Reading is a matter Of prac-
tice, but the power Of song is a divine
gift possessed by few. 1t is possible
that we may hear ''SOmbra'' equally
well next week. but we Will not hear
those notes SO richly born Of human
breath Her soprano is one Of much
charm, and when, rOcket-like, it burst
forth with all its beautiful intensity on
high 3 in The Last Rose Of Summer, %
the emotions were enraptured, just as
the minor mode touched the heart
with melancholy.
The solo, ''SOn Of the Desert" by
R V. Hildebrand, was very acceptable
as was the solo by Oliver Arnold, sec
Ond tenor. The male Quartette sang
really worth the attention OF a must
cally cultured audience, and that was
THE Sunset The song was a must
and was rendered with fine express

criticism on the vOices-fOr they are
gOOd-but a criticism upon the folly
Of lowering the art because in some
places, such pieces take"
GOOdland Will be greatly pleased to
hear Miss Shipp again, and the quar-
tette, too, with a change OF repertoire.
The people that heard Miss Shipp viii
be glad 10 know that she is a western
girl, raised in BrOOkfield, No. where
her parents now live She received
her musical education in Boston, and
is making the third season in the west

greets with a greater love OF song
