n NLY few music lovers braved the
threatened downpour last night to
~ attend the Nowland-H Hunter con-
cert in Symphony hall, but those who
went listened to a happily selected
program. An innovation SO delightful
that it should become universal was
lowering of the lights in the hall dur
ing each number, the few electric lights
on the platform necessary for the play
ers being sufficient to diffuse a soft
glow through the room and yet leave
no glare to weary and distract atten-
tion.
Almost at the eleventh hour last
week it became necessary to change
one number of the program, and at the
request of several musicians who had
heard it before the Chaminade trio in
A minor was substituted for the one
formerly announced. For the second
number Eugene Nowland and Fordyce
Hunter rendered the Gade sonata in
d minor and the program was con-
cluded by Arthur Foote'S trio in G
minor
The Lyric club will give the second
concert of its present season the
evening of March in Simpson audi
torium.
