ATTRACTIVE PROGRAM
FOR KENT RECITAL
Concert in Auditorium Tonight Will
Include High Glass Music that
Appeals TO Popular Taste.

Program making for concerts has
become rs high an art as the technical
performance. So much music Of the
highest class is melodious and pleasing
20 the popular taste that most at
tractive program can be chosen.
The Grieg concerto. which has been
played by Miss Charlotte Kent with
Creat success. and which will be played
at her recital in the AUDITORIUM tonight.
abounds with the dance rythms of the
Norwegian peasants as well as with
their tlnefu1 folk songs.
The cadenza is one of the most diff
cult of concerto cadenzas, yet never
becomes vehicle of mere show tech
niGne. Rather ii amplifies and eolors
the beautiful themes of the concerto.
The classical group chosen by Miss
Kent gives some of the finest examples
of classical and romantic writing. At
the same time it will appeal to the
general public as strongly as to the
most ardent musician.
a quaint group of old songs to be
given by Mr.. Ahern is especially
charming, while the more ambitious
arias give him opportunity to display
his musicianly qualities.

merely increase the profits Of ship
