said the course of organ building entered
diverger, channels The new system con-
tanned nothing in itself to alter the standard
crgan OF the period in any respect save ease
Of manipulation. And yet il made possible
the successive inventions whose adoption, 70
any considerable degree, has produced an IN
strument OF widely different resources from
its prototype. With the development of new
possibilities Of contrast and expression, Of
structural disposition and mechanical con-
troll arose new fields, perhaps hitherto un-
dreamed o.; in some cases requiring for their
successful exploitation technique and rep
ertoirc quite individual.
The general excellence Of the modern IN
strument ard the variety Of It's resources
should stimulate the organist to efforts COM
mensurate with the advantages offered him.
Hc must rot regard the exploitation Of these
resources as his artistic goal, but rather
their employment as 4 means Of musical eX-
preston. BY his choice OF repertoire and
the manner of its performance he must en-
courage the production and perpetuation OF
such works as accord with, and Will perpet-
uate a true conception Of the individuality
Of the organ; aad he must strive 10 perfect
himself in the ant II improvisation, which Is
so essential to his musical development.
Thus must the fIlure Of organ playing and
Of the organ and It's literature be safeguard
ca in our country.
Upon such foundations the French school
of organ playing and organ composition has
been reared In 10 other country has the
organ achieved so high position OF honor
among musicians, or have so many OF the
creates. contemporary composers interested
themselves in the organ, both as executants
and as writer's of organ music. | refer par
ticularly to composers of established reputa-
ton and recognized prominence in all forms
Of music: orchestral, instrumental and
choral"

personated was not the original from
Florence, nor yet the later Pierrot of
France, but her own conception-'a Pier
rot who is rather a symbol than char
acter.' There were numerous Satire
touches in the Perrot recitations that
we're keenly appreciated by the audience
"She envisaged her songs with the
humor, the pathos, the heart-hunger, the
satire and the grimness of this Pierrot Of
al ages" declared The Evening Journal
THE Herald" thought that surely no
one gets so fine mingling of LIES serious
and trivial sides into the limits of a single
song recital as does Nine. Guilbert."

With the sun full glare on him and me
Just leyelled us stiff, and it counted piles
For the maxim o true democracy.

Mime. Gabrielle Gills's Song Re-
cital

I Asst year this French artist came 10
l. America under the auspices Of the
French-American Association for Musical
Art. Her second recital this season was
given Friday afternoon, November 30, at
Aeolian Hall, her programme including
an "Ariette de la Folle," by Rameau, which
the singer repeated "Chanson ancienne
de Charles d'0rleans," by Sauzai, with
violin obbligato, played by Reber Johnson; ;
an air from Carpenters Louise"
Dwight Fiske's The Bird" and notably
a group of songs by Gabriel Faure and
Debussy's lie Chevelure," which last, in
the opinion Of "The Globe was the song
in which the artist rose to her greatest
height This she gave with tenderness
and broodng intensity that made it
memorable"
To "The World" it seemed that the
singer has not a remarkable voice, but
she uses it so discreetly and makes so
much of every bit of it that only in the
Louise aria did the singer fall short
OF vocal requirements" Similarly, The
Tribune thought that "her voice is not a
great one, nor is her tone production i'm

book is an elaborate yet very concise
study of the organs mechanical construc-

special attention being paid to the regis
tration Of French organ music upon
American instruments. OF the organ in
America Mr.. Goodrich writes:
probably in no other country have the
successive changes in methods Of organ
construction. during the last quarter OF
century. more nearly justified the designa-
ton revolution than in the United States.
At the beginning Of this period, making due
allowance for the individual methods or
characteristics of various builders, practically
all organs followed a general standard with
regard TO character of specification and the
rurposes for which they were built. Organs
designed for concert use were found ~ some
OF thu LARGEST auditoriums, and occasionally
in smaller halls; the size Of church organs
was governed by the proportions Of the edit
fees in which they were placed and to
certain extent by demands Of liturgy or form
Of worship. A few private residences boosted
instruments Of more or less Importance. yet

An AlI.Schumann Programme

1OHN POWELL INSPIRED a large hu-
dience at Aeoian Hall on Wednesday
afternoon to a pitch Of warmest en-
thusiasm. He presented an all-Schumann
programme. The experiment, rather
daring one, was tried last season with
great success. "The Times" said Of the
present recital:
"The programme contained the 'Humor-
csques,' On. 20, all eight OF the 'Krelslcr-
lana and the 'Etudes Symphoniques.' OF
these the 'Etudes SympEoniQues' are much
played; few of the 'krelslcriana' a little,
and the rest OF them and the 'Humoresques'
not at all.
"And yet the 'Humoresques are quite worth
giving in public, even more than some other
lesser works of Schumann that pianists have
lately found valuable Mr.. Powell in his
little essay points out their continuity, their
perfection of time, their fascination Of con-
trasts, which he thinks are to be found in no
other works of the master"
THE Sun" rejoiced in the fact that Mr..
Powell played with understanding and
emotion" and that he 'subordinated his art
TO the thought of the composer, and resist
ed temptation to make parade Of difficult
ties" The Tribune visualized the pianist
warming himself "at the fire of Schu-
manns genius" and rejecting the light and
flame, "even though he does not himself
burn"

TT WAS an aIl-American programme

TT WAS an all-American programme
The plays had American settings and
N they were all by American authors.
So perfectly, indeed, was the idea carried
ont that all the roles were played by
American actors. 1t was decidedly patri-
otic affair. and according to Tho Herald,
the audience seemed to enter into the
shirt Of the occasion and showed apprecia-
/ ton Of the efforts of the young players
TO snow both the grave and the gay SIDES
Of American life. and applause was hearty
and plenteous throughout the perform
ance."
To "The World" it seemed that the most
interesting feature Of the programme was
the one-act play by Theodore Dresser,
called "The Girl in the Coffin 1t supplied
the punch" which the other offerings
lacked, according to this paper
Another of the plays was THE Crllcs
Comedy" by Samuel Kaplan. In The
Sun" one found the following comment
/ upon it:

/ evening from dulness. IT told terSe1y anu
