violinist, to Kennewick on Thursday,
May 6, is heralded by local music low
ers as the greatest musical event in
the history Of the city. Skovgaard
ranks high among the master must
clans Of the world, having played be-
fore King Christian, of Denmark,
King Oscar, of Sweden, King Hakon,
Of Norway and at the special request
Of Emperor William he appeared as
soloist at the opening Of the Royal
Berlin Academy of Music and later
upon two occasions he was invited to
play private concerts at the royal
palace.
The following critical excerpts give
some idea Of Skovgaard's European
successes: Berlin, Germany, Lokal An
zeiger-Skovgaard is a perfect mas
ter of his intrument and his audience
is involuntarily drawn into state of
perfect harmony with him. He over
came the greatest technical difficulties
with ease and the taste and thorough
comprehension which characterizes
his playing proves that he possesses a
complete knowledge of his art.
Copenhagen, Denmark, Wort Land
Artistically, the most brilliant event
Of the season was the violin recital
last night. From the time this artist
begins to talk to you with his violin
until he stops, you are compelled,
whether you will or not, to listen.
Skovgaard plays on the wonderful
Stradivarius violin for which he paid
$4,000 and which is now valued at
vastly more than that sum. The vio-
lin was fashioned in 1712 and for near
ly a century and half after the MAX
er's death it reposed in Spanish
museum.
Skovgaard is coming to Kennewick
under the auspices of the Kennewick
Woman's club and will give his con-
cert in the high school auditorium the
evening of May 6. The admission
charge will be so and 35 cents.

APPREC|ATIvE AUDIENCE
ATTENDS CHORAL CONCERT
Arthur Sullivan's "Pr0digal Son" is
Given by Local Singers and
Visiting Artists

While not as large, perhaps, as It
should have been, the audience which
gathered to hear the Kennewick Cho-
raj society in concert Tuesday evening
was most appreciative and seemed to
thoroughly enjoy the efforts of both
the local singers and the visiting ar
lists who assisted.
The first half of the program con-
sisted of the singing of the parable
of the "Prodigal Son" as set to mu-
Sic by Arthur Sullivan, an oratorio
which gave plenty Of opportunity for
splendid chorus effects as well as con-
tanning many fine recitative passages
and arias for the display Of the solo
voices. 3ss "
The latter part Of the program
opened with a beautiful trio by Mr.,
and Mrs. Kennedy and Mr.. Buchholz
and this was followed by solos by Mr..
Zercher, Mrs. Kennedy, Mr.. Buchholz
and Mrs. Ham, each Of, the artists, be-
ing heartily encored. The program
closed with selection by the chorus
Those who assisted as soloists were:
Mrs. E. D. Kennedy, soprano, Mrs.
Alice A. Ham, Contralto; Mr.. J. s.
Buchholz, tenor; all Of Spokane, and
Mr.. r. H. Zercher, bass, Of this city.
Mrs. p II. Zercher and Miss E. M.
Shier acted as accompanies and the
chorus was strengthened by five voices
from the Pasco society. &
Mr.. Zercher, who had the business
management for the society in charge
reports that financially the season,
while not profitable, ended very sat-
isfactorily. Mr.. Kennedy, the diree.
tor, has made himself well liked by
his work in Kennewick during the
past few months and in turn has ex-
pressed himself as being highly pleas
ed with his associations here and by
the cooperation Of the singers who
gave Of their time to bring the so
ciety's work to such successful ter
mination. -
