HERzER RECITAL
SCORES SUCCESS
SoloistS and Chorus EnthuS-
iaSticaIIy Received BY
LARGE Audience.

Hugo Hcrzcr presented number
of his pupils and chorus that in
cluded some wcll-known local sing
ers in very successful recital last
night in the ballroom of the Young
Hotel. A large and extremely appre-
ciative audience gathered and each
number was given bountiful applause.
The program was In two parts, the
first serving to bring again to the
fore Mrs. Hugo EIcrZer and to intro
duce Reynold II. McGrew as one of
the most promising baritones that
has appeared in local amateur ranks.
Mrs lIerzer added to her laurels in
the numbers where she appeared,
while Mr.. McGrew sprang into in
slant popularity when he first sang
His voice, while still capable Of
great development, is clear and true
and has a peculiarly pleasing quail
ity. One of his numbers, Valerie
Whites Marching Along" was
married by the failure of the accom-
PIANIST to subdue the heavy piano ac-
compartment to volume that would
accord with the strength of the sing
er's voice, but this was only an in
cident.
Mrs. Herzer picked out light num-
bers that suited her soprano voice
nicely. She was particularly well re-
ceived in two songs by Carlos Ca
ceres, the local pianist, who accom-
panied her splendidly. The songs
themselves are gems.
The second part of the program
was Woodforde- Finden's "Pagoda of
Flowers" called a Burmese Love
Story" The music Is much reminis-
cent of Madame Butterfly" with the
Oriental strains woven In frequently
This procession of tonc-pictures was
worked out by the chorus of twenty
voices and Mrs. Herzer. Mrs. f. W.
Macfarlane, Jr., A. +. Wall, Reynold
u. McGrew and Mrs. n. S. Fairweath-
or. The hall Is too low of ceiling to
give the fullest advantage to chorus
work, but Hugo lcrzer, who conduct
ed the chorus, got "A great deal out
of II. The soloists were applauded
enthusiastically.
