Thursday Musical.
The following program was given
last evening at the open meeting of
the Thursday Musicale. A large and
appreciative audience greeted the per-
formers. as the abilities of our home
talent are we'll known to all, and Miss
Murphy having played here before,
we were assured of rare treat.
The Brahms music is reputed to be
most difficult to interpret, as we'll as
being difficult to execute, and the SYM
pathetic, deep-feeling way in which
Miss Murphy interpreted and the easy
manner of her execution do we'll pro-
claim her successful artist.
Miss Murphy has an exquisite touch,
and her fingers coax and tease, or
taunt, or triumph over the tones in
wonderful manner. Her finger dexter
ity in the Minuete, by Scambati, which
she played as an encore, was almost,
startling. Such work is rarely seen
In Grand Forks. She scored her high
est merit when she played Saint Saens'
allegro AppassiOnata." It was mag
nificent.
Mr.. Schefstad was at his best last
evening. He always holds his audi
ence in an almost breathless spell. and
the exquisiteness of his tones in tho
eyer-varying themes of the Hungarian
dances was fascinating.
Miss Titus accompanied Mr.. Schef-
stad, and Mrs. Thomas was at the
piano for Miss Morehous, who sang in
her usual charming manner.
