A RARE TREAT
FOR AUDIENCE
Program at University Fur.
nished by Members of
Wesley Faculty.

The regular c~onvocation at the Uni
versity Of North Dakota this MORN
ing was a great treat. The program
was furnished by three Of the men,
bers of the faculty of Wesley college
conservatory of music. Professor J. A.
Buchholz, Professor Paola Conte, and
Professor H. Alden Enyeart. Miss
Lilah Sannes vas at the piano.
In the absence Of Acting President
E. ]. Babcock, DR.. E. P. Robertson,
president of Wesley college, presided.
He read as the Scripture for he
morning an arrangement of verses
which he called the Gold Of Charac-
ter" In the absence af Professor w.
w. Norton, the singing was directed
by Miss Kathryn Harris, assistant in
the department of music.
Buchholz First Program.
The first on the program was Pro
lied" by Kreisler, Meditation by
Massenet, and Concerto No. Z. Move
ment III by DeBeriot. Professor
Buchholz played with that evident en-
jayment of his art which gives the
performance a freshness and spontan-
iety that is refreshing. The second
number Of the group was played with
appealing tenderness and artistic re-
traint. Contrasting with the sweet
g%entleness of the first WI numbers
was the brilliant mood of the De-
Beriot number which Mr.. Buchholz
played with a dash and spirit that
evoked the most hearty applause, as
did also his playing of the other
numbers.
Audience Appreciated.
Music at it's sweetest most SYM
pathetic and best is always expected
when that artist of rare skill
composer of lovely melodies, Paolo
Conte is al the piano. That this
mornings audience expected a treat
was evident from the burst of APP
plause which greeted his appearances:
that this expectation was more than
fulfilled was evident too from h in
sistent call that came from the audi
ence for more when Professor Conte
had finished his group which con-
sisted Of prelude by Chopin.
'.Scherzo,' Nartucci, and Concert
Waltz by Conte. Mr.. Conte played
as an encore THE Song or the
Brook" one of his own compositions.
This last was enjoyed even more than
any Of the others. 1t is a charming
picture, INC it's ripping tones are SO
fascinating that they live long in one's
memory even after the piano is closed
and the strings are silent.
Closes Program.
Professor Enyeart closed the pro.
gram Of the morning with a group or
three we'll chosen numbers. There
Cried a Bird" Sindig: 1.-THE Rose of
Ispahan'' by Williams Arms Fisher,
and "At Parting by 1ngelfritz. Com
plete mental control characterized Mr..
Enyeart's rendition Of these numbers:
He was in particularly fine voice. and
this in view Of his exquisite vocal
equipment means that those who
heard him this morning were very
fortunate to be there. The second

Of technique.
