MIR. P0WELL'S RECITAL.
Americas Pianist Prcsents schs.
mann and Chopin PP0Era ne.

John Powell a young American pian-
lst who was heard with favor here
last season. gave Schumann-C Chopin
recital in Aeollan Hail yesterday after
noon. As a composer Mr.. Powell has
also attracted come attention in this
city. his violin concerto in Il major
having been played on December ~.
1912. by Efrem zimbalist. and during
the following season. by Mr.. and Mrs.
Names. his Sonata Virginianesque"
was introduced here.
The compositions by Schunlann con-
tained in his programme Of yesterday
were the T. sharp minor sonata and the
Forest Scenes" Those by Chopin COM
prised the impromptu in G fat, the etude
in c sharp minor. the c sharp minor
scherzo and the. Il minor sonata.
A detailed analysis OF Mr.. Powells
performance Is hardly necessary. as II
can at once be said that its dominating
features could easily resolve themselves
in large part into those charactertsing
one OF excellent merit. In the Schumann
sonata there was at times lack Of
fiuency In style and there could here
have been applied a greater breadth Of
tone in forte passages, as well as more
lightness OF touch, and this chiefly In
the scherzo. But even these defects
stood In a minor light when faced by
the sum OF his delivery. where there
were displayed technical skill. sensitive
ness backed by virility and intellectual
poise in taste. rich resources In tone
colortng and never failing sense Of
correct rhythm. Mr.. Powell was heard
By large audience that manifested
warm approval, and II was also ono At
tracing attention for the unusually
large percentage OF men II contained
when compared with that OF thA familiar r

OSCAR SEAGLE HEARD
In OLD FRENCH SONGS
BarytOnc Gives a Programme
of Much Interest as Well
as Variety.

oscar SeaGle. 81 hsrytone who has been
heard often with much pleasure. gave
4 song recital Yesterday afternoon in
Carnegie Hall. His programme was one
of interest and charm. II began with
old French numbers after which came
a croup OF lyrics by more recent COM
posers Of France. The third group con-
tanned TWO songs by Chopin and one
each by Rimsky -Eorsakov. Gretchainov
AID Moussorgsky. The last group was
devoted 20 American and English
writer's. !; included two new songs by
Edward Horsnan. The poems were
taken from the Chinese and were en-
.itled In the Yellow Dusk" and Thus
Wisdom Sings They proved 10 he two
good songs and will undoubtedly be
heard again.
Mr.. Seagie j. singer who delights
hv reason of his nice appreciation or
the qualities OF style HIS voice Is one
OF much beauty and his vocal technic
is generally sound. lie has good com.
mand of mczza voce and head tones
and he uses them with skill and taste.
In only one instance yesterday was his
taste open to serious question, and that
was in reaching for a final hgn tone
which Was no, good in itself and added
nothing to the purpose Of the music
1t is rare. however. that this fastidious
singer makes such an excursion INTO
doubtful regions. As a rule he delivers
his lyrics with delicate perception OF
their poetic and musical qualities and
careful adjustment Of his vocal means
to artistic ends Much Of the pleasure
derived from hearing him IL created
ny his resposeful manner. His diction
too is so good that his songs are made
quite intelleibic. lie continues to be
one OF the most satisfying exponents OF
the art OF song Interpretation.
