The Lakeland evening telegram., 1914-01-12
Friday Musicale

| =
A very delightful musical and lit
erary treat was given by the members
of the Music Club and friends Fri
day night, at the Studio.
The Studio was prettily decorated
with beautiful palms and ferns and
every one was in the best of spirits
despite the inclemency of the wealth
er. Socially, a charming informality
dominates these functions much to
the enjoyment of those who are so
fortunate as to be invited.
The program was lengthy, yet it
was unusually interesting, and en-
phasized the value of the untiring
work done by the musical director,
Mrs. Fletcher, to whom Lakeland is
debtor for the gradual growth and
high attainment in the musical world
of art, her results being wonderful.
Mrs. Pilans opened the program
with beautifully rendered waltz by
GODDARD. She played with much
verve and attractive grace, that al
way elicits the heartiest applause.
Mrs. Eaton sang with her usual
ability, her song, AT Ny Lattice, :"
being one of the most pleasant fea
lures of the evening
Miss Hazel Williams, then capti
waited the audience with her singing,
"Daddie and ], Her artistic ability
being enhanced many fold by the be-
witching and charming presentment
of her song. She very graciously and
coquetishly responded with an en-
core, Little Irish Girl. -
One of the most enjoyable mum
bers of the evening was the trio, Only
Mother" by Mines. Madden and
Rodgers and Miss Biewere, their
voices blending in rich harmony and
beauty of melody.
Mr.. Hines gave c Bonds Good
Bye, Sweet Day" which he sang en-
gagingly light and musical. His
is excellent and his fine
voice has a sympathetic quality quite
out of the ordinary. OBJ Because"
by D'Hardelot, sowed a deeper quail
lty of voice, admirably adapted to the
song. 20, That We Two Were May
ing" as an encore, was sung with an
expression that only a true musician
oan put into his songs.
The chorus, "Wynkin, Blynkin &
Nod,' by the club members, with
solo obligato, by Mrs. o. NJ. Eaton,
deserves special mention because of
he beautiful fourh hand accompani-
rent by Mines. Fletcher and Pillans,
md for its pleasing rendition by the
,lub.
Mrs. Drane then gave Sunlight"
With her clear voice of excellent quail
ty, with a style which is so likeable,
Ter pianissimo being equaled only by
he daintiness of other parts.
Naughty Zell," a reading by Miss
Williams, afforded an opportunity for
he display of that impish effect that
o delighted her audience.
Mrs. Madden, with her fine poise
nd bearing and such variety in her
onal effects, as well as unusual in
erpretative ability, pleased to the ut
lost, with her song, "on the Adrian
ca"
One of our most accomplished mu-
icians, Miss Baggette, was the viol-
mist of the evening. With a full
ensing of it's inherent charm and
ne skill with which Miss Baggett
andled her instrument, this young {
rtist held the rapt attention of the '
udience. As encore, particularly
leasing was her discrimination and :
of "Air Varie v"
