OLIVE KLINE PLEAsEs AUDIENCE
Music Lovers Show Appreciation Of
Felk Songs in Popular Recital.
fBy JOHN II MCELLER)

fDs JUN n III E<lLkRl
II has been the good fortune of the
| music lovers of Columbia TO hear sew
eral matured artists during the cur
rent season. and it was evidently with
high degree Of satisfaction that
they listened to one who is just on the
threshold of her concert career
Olive Kline gives promise of most
successful future. Although her voice
does not possess unusual volume or
sorority. it is of exceptional pleasing
quality and has free emission. She
was in her element in the soft color
atura passages of "wohin" (Schubert,
The Fairy Pipers" (Brewer). and in
10. Here the Gentle Lark which was
her first encore. II was in the last
named that her special gift displayed
itself The plastic quality of her voice
enabled her TO manipulate the trills
and various lyrical fourishes with un-
obtrusiyeness and becoming grace. 7
Her enunciation is likewise distinct
and always obvious
To Miss Kline belongs the distinc-
tion OF introducing the first ultramod-
ern solo selection of the season. AL
though "Fantoches" by Claude Debus-
sy is hardly extreme in that character
istic school, the song was a very good
representative of the modern tenden-
cy in all our arts, namely that of de-
serting the beaten paths of acknowl- /
edged form for the by-ways of ap-
experimental formlessness. !
However. the title justified and was BY {
chance in keeping with the composers I
