One of the most pleasing recitals of
the season was that given last even
ing by Mr.. Edwin Lemare. the famous
London Oreanist. on the organ of the
Reid Memorial church. The first
number on the program was a march,
"Pomp and Circumstances" written
by Elgar. This number was rendered
in a most charming manner by Mr..
Lemare. The melody in the middle
part was extremely beautiful. A very
recent composition from the we'll
known organ composer, WolstenhOlme
entitled "Berceuse. was the next
number. This composition is in the
nature of slumber song. One OF the
most attractive features of it was the
middle section in D minor Mr.. Lee
mares expression and tone quality in
this selection was of unusual merit
Bach's Prelude and Fugue, better
known as the Great G Minor. was GER
tainly a creation of artistic beauty
and melody. The fourth numbers on
the program, ta) Curfew, and OBJ
Scherzo in A-fat by Bairstow were
greeted with applause by the audience.
The fifth and last numbers on the pro-
gram were omitted. "Parsifal," writ
ten by Wagner, was played Immediate
ly after the interval. This selection
is a miracle of solemn beauty The
Prelude prepares the minds Of its
hearers for the drama that follows.
