Miss Else Jache's Debut in Mime.
apoiis.
/ Mankato has of late given to Min
| neapolis several singers and must
clans who have achieved wonderful
/ success, and are now favorites in
! the musical circles of the metropo-
! lis of Southern Minnesota. Last
| Thursday evening Miss Else Jache
of this city made her rebut in Min
I neapolis and her reception by the
music lovers of that city is describ-
ed by critic who wrote as fol-
lows for The Minneapolis Journal:
"a program Astounding in great
technical difficulties and taxing the
endurance of the performer, served
Else Jache, former pupil of Ru-
dolph GAM and who has recently
become a member of Minneapolis
musical colony, as vehicle in which
to make her debut last night before
a local audience Handicraft Guild
hall was filled with music lovers who
were appreciative to marked de-
gree. Kathleen Palmer Hart, So
prano, sang fifteen songs and sew
eral encores during the evening, ex-
cellently, accompanied by Mary AL
len.
miss Jache has comprehensive
technic with a decided leaning to
the stormy effects of List. In the
Chopin Funeral March a more deli
cate pianissimo might have been
wished for. Parts of the wonderful
sonata, op. So, were we'll played, not
ably the first movement, barring
slight nervousness. due perhaps to
! the presence in the audience of her
celebrated teacher. 1t was in Schu-
mann's 'Warum' Miss Jache was at
her best and almost equally so in
'Des Abends,' another Schumann
number. The melancholy compos-
er's art is wholly retrospective and
depends for successful Interpretation
on a clear exposition of the inner
voices, which Miss Jache succeeded
i'm doing. Brahms two Capriccios,
Op. rs, Nos. l and 2, were beauti-
fully played, with singing tone and
sonOrous chords. Hesitation in Rats
Risaudon held up all too prominent
lily it's very mechanical structure and
development. with it's gruelling oc-
taves for the left hand. An Etude
Caprice by CAM was brilliantly play
ed and had to be repeated in part.
i This number showed Miss Jaches
style of playing to advantage Schu-
bert's 'Du Bist Die Ruiz in the List
! transcription, and LISTS tremendous
Eroica, requiring phenomenal tech
meal proficiency for mastery per-
Torrance, closed the pianist's part
of the program. Miss Jache is a
sincere artist, whose residence in
Minneapolis will help in maintain
ing a high musical standard.
Miss Hart was especially success
fml in her singing Of Schumanu's
'Widmung,' which she had to repeat.
and Debussy's Les Cloches, The
Mozart recitative and aria from
Figaro were not quite convincing
and in Delibes' Les Files de Cadiz'
she lacked the dramatic touch and
the Spanish fire absolutely essential
to the compositions Interpretation.
Strauss marvellous 'Morgen.' a tone
poem of the first rank, left pro-
found impression"
