Greatest Ovation Ever Known in
Portland. Strongest Attraction in
Nineteen Years History Of Maine
Musical Festival.

The Maine Musical Festival reached
its climax last evening when Legin-
ska's marvellous piano work walked
people up TO such a degree that they
gave her an ovation unlike anything
witnessed here in many years. There
was perfect storm of plaudits after
the superb Hungarian Fantasy Of
List. and five times this strangely
fascinating artist played with the ut
most good will besides bowling her
thanks for five times that number
more.
A little body is she. almost childlike
in appearance, with her shock of
blonde hair falling around and often
over her face in the oldest sort Of
way, but once at the piano her muscles
seem to turn to finest tempered steel
and she plays in heroic style, broadly,
with a rush at times like a torrent,
and then again with a caressing magi-
cal delicacy that is the quintessence of
charm.
Ethel Leginska has fire and repose, a
tone color that dazzles in it's infinite
variety and ideals that carry her to
stupendous heights in the realms of
music. No artist has ever been pre-
scented by Mr.. Chapman. great as they
have been, who eXerted so strong an
attraction for his Portland audience.
