Omaha daily bee., 1906-04-29

- BIsPHAM recital and May fes-
"a tival all in one week! That looks
as If Omaha were in the game
ms unsteady, doesn't it7 All the
SS great baritones admirers were

same keen delight which radiates from all
Mr.. Bispham's Appearances.
The May festival, too, was great sue
cess. Its promoters feel happy and en-
couraged over the outcome, Vague plans
Of an even larger scope are being con-
sidered for next year. Luck and plenty of
1t to these enthusiastice, energetic people.
1t begins to seem as If a few artistic souls
would no longer have to bear the brunt of
holding up the standard, unsteady speak
ing. 1t il fine, splendid, that when one
group Of workers gets tired there is an
other eager and willing to carry on the
good work. What we need most OF all
is to pull together and help each other.
This spirit Is surely coming in a greater
and fuller degree. What's the use of
smiling at other peoples work2 It's
beastly habit and one that this town needs
TO get out Of There ought to be no
'clques." One of ny dreams is a musi-
clans Cuba great big room in some
downtown building. the walls a soft green.
with few good pictures; some comfortable
chairs. a good music library, a table with
all the good music journals; to top It all,
a first-class grand plano, maybe two; a
comfortable. friendly place wherein to
meet, discuss musical matters and listen
to some good music; no red tape, no fuss
and feathers. I never was blessed with
business ability, but I think l could steer
this sort Of an arrangement and make II
reasonably pleasant. 1t might be the be-
ginning OF something very much worth
while and pass on to more competent hands
than mine.
