DELIGHTS AUDIENCE

II. too. was approximately received. AT
this point In the program. Miss Wilson
invited the audience 10 rico and Join
with her in singing 'Thc Star-spangied
Banner" which was accomplished With
fervor and unanimity. 1he singing Of
tho high school chorus and Miss Will
sons effective hisn Is nat at tho climax
made this striking feature OF the
concert.
1t would be difficult to be too ex-
travagant In the praise of Mr. Grain
sers piano numbers. with improbable
technique. with wonderful crescendos
and stupohdous climaxcs. his playing
was revelation to many OF his audi
tors. Ills ability to produce almost un-
limited power In his bass tones Is
nothing short OF amazing. In his Chopin
Polonaise, as In the Bach-Liszt Fan
tasia and Fugue. his dramatic eli
makes were built up with remarkable
skill and pianistic art. His fuguc PASS
ages likewise were brought out with
clean cut precision and with the ut
most delicacy. His Debussy "Dans
fEau" was impressionistic In character
and realistic in rendition. 1t is a great
faYorite OF the pianist. As an encore
to his second group Of numbers. Mr..
Gainaer gave his own Shepherds Hey"
a rollicking style OF selection. light and
graceful In his interpretation.
