Of lines had been interpolated to give

same as that given at Covent Garden

staged It.

Philadelphia Orchestra

The illness OF Nine. Olga Samaroff,

the Philadelphia Orchestra at the next

shltuns OF programs. Efrem Zimballst,
the violinist whose extraordinary talents
nave won him unreserved applause in the
last two years, will come for the two
concerts and Nine. Samarofr will take
his place, November 20 and 21. Mr.. zim-

major. and was able to make this hack
neyed piece live again.
Particularly delightful was Miss spen-
GERS Interpretation Of Debussy. AS she
sat at the piano one thought that she
herself was listening TO a player, was re-
garding herself effectively and thought
fully considering and approving OF every
note. There was not a shadow Of strain or
Of self-consciousness In her work. 1t was
serious or whimsical, but always delight
full. Her playing of the Brahms Inter
mezzo" and of the Liszt "Ballade" was
more in the nature OF concert playing but
the technical abilities exhibited were re-
markable. Miss Spencer Is able to COM
bine personal force with the musical
righteousness Of Interpretation which
every player owes to the composer. Her
triumph last night was well deserved.
Miss Spencer, who has studied the piano
in Geneva and Munich, was assisted by
Mrs. George w. Stewart, soprano, who
sang Charpentiers aria, "Depuis le Jour,
from the opera Louise" and group of
songs including Tschaikowsky's 20,

given last night at Melrose Hall, Oak
Lane. under the patronage of many
women of this city prominent in philan-
thropic work. Excellent as the purpose
of the musicale was. It's chief claim for
attention was that it introduced a pianist
OF uncommon charm to Philadelphia.
Miss Sylvia Eastman Spencer, of Melrose
Park. made her debut at the musicale,
and 1t was auspicious in the highest de-
gree. Ease and grace are the two fea-
lures OF her playing which appeal at once
to the hearer. In the Chopin pieces Miss
Spencer seemed to be communicating d.

rare thing for players OF Chopin. She
