RECITAL 7
BY the Bostonia Sextette Club
the Baptist Church is a
Fine One.

A large audience attended the sec
ond number of the series of Marcato
Club entertainments, the appearance
of the Bostonia sextet club, at the
First Baptist church, Thursday night.
The sextet was composed ofthe fol
lowing members: c. L. Stats, direc-
tor, clarinet; Elmer c. Adams, violin;
Joseph G-ewirtz, violin: Carl A. Oster-
berg, cello; o. L. Southland, bass;
Clarence d. Miller, viola. The se%tet
was assisted by Miss Catherine Mel
ley. soprano.
The club won favor of the audience
from the start and FREQUENT encores
we're demanded. Mr.. Stats, who is
said to be one OF the. finest clarinet
performers anywhere. delighted the
audience in his skElfuI and artistic
execution of Mayeur's ,Andante and
Polka Caprice" for the clarinet Miss
Melleys solos, with accompaniment
by the sextet, contributed much to the
variety of the program. Miss Melley
has voice of good range and .excell-
ent quality She sang the Shadow
song" from Meyerbeer's "DInorah.
and Schubert's shepherd on the
Cliff" with clarinet obligato, and re-
sponded to encores.
Mr.. Osterberg's cello solo, Cod
ards Sur lie Lac" was very effective.
BY request the sixth number on the
program was changed, the sextet per-
forming in its stead selection from
THE Fortune Teller by Victor
Herbert. Mr.. Southland ably sup
ported the other Instruments in his
excellent manipulation of the big
bass, and Mr.. Miller's viola part was
very pleasing. and added much to the
general effect.
The ipdtyilustl members of the club
are. all performe rs Of recognized ahfl-
ity, aud the. violins were in keeping
with the high standard of the club as
whole. Mr.. Adams first number;
was Dvorak's well known "Humor-
eske," and he rendered it with such
grace and charm that the audience
almost hesitated Sto applaud, fearing
to spoil the effect. The second num-
Der, Dance OF the Elves" quite diff
Ferent in conception and recurring
skilful and rapid execution, was wel'
performed, and Mr., Adams responded
with the beautiful Rosary as an
encore The audience showed Its APP
preciatlon by compelling him to re-
peat the number This young MANS
technique is very good, and a brilliant
future in music may be predicted for
him. Mr.. Gewirtz played nm exceIl7
emit second violin and in q short time
win likely be playing hrst instead
