Women S Singing
Club Proposed

There is some likelihood, apparent
iy, that a singing club made up
exclusively Of women Of Fargo and
Moorhead who are interested in
vocal music, may be formed. Since
the recent annual concert Of the
Apollo club OF Fargo, F.. J. SucheT,
director of that organization, has
been asked liz he would conduct a
women's club we're one organized,
and states that he would be willing
to do so provided there are SUM-
Gent number of members who will
be faithful and attend all rehearsRls
during the winter season. A
conscientious membership Of so or
more would be required for the
formation Of such club. and re-
hearsals would begin next October
and conclude on the first of March.
1t has been suggested that the
proposed organization could be known
as THE Lyric Club of Fargo, or
some such name. and as in the case
Of the Apollo club, the membership
fee would be nominal, and the
money thus secured would be utilized
to cover the cost OF the music to be
used.
II is the opinion of several inter-
ested in forming such a club, that
there is as much favorable material
i'm the two cities for a women's sing
ing organization as for a mems
chorus. and the success Of the local
Apollo club has stimulated a desire
to develop these possibilities.
In order to waste no time in the
fall in getting the proposed club in
training, it will be necessary to form
IL this spring IL the idea Is to be
realized, and all who have pleasing
and musical voices and who can
read music reasonably we'll would be
eligible to membership unless a test
Of their voices decreed otherwise.

Trio OfArtiStS
Here April 19

A trio of popular musicians who
have achieved successes both in this
country and abroad, will appear in
concert at Stones hall in Fargo on
April ~ and 20, under the auspices
of the Business Women's club of the
local Y. w. G. A. They are Florence
Austin, an eminent American violin
list, Wilmot Goodwin, baritone; and
Lee Cronican, accompanied and
piano soloist.
Miss Austin has, in addition to
much other concert work, been
soloist with symphony orchestras
such as that Of Minneapolis, and ap-
peared with Individual singers, in
Guiding John Mccormack, for whose
great summer concert che was
specially engaged in 1915. She was
the first American to win the
Premier prize at the celebrated Royal
Conservatory Of Music of Lieger
Muehin, Musin, Thomas, Ysaye and
Marsick studied their art. She has
scored triumphs in a number Of the
great cities Of Great Britain and the
continent, and returning to America
because of the war conditions In
Europe, has repeated the successes
won in the old world.
Mr.. Goodwin is said to be an idea
baritone both through physique and
training. He was born in Canada,
stands six feet, four inches in his
athletic costume, and has always
been a power in games Of strength,
He 10 now in his thirties and Is
popular with thousands Of music foy-
ers. Mr.. Goodwin, after successful
ly filling the position Of soioist in
leading churches Of New York, sang
with the st. Paul, New York Philhar-
monte, the Boston Festival and the
Russian Symphony orchestras, then
accepted the position Of principal
baritone with the Aborn Opera COM
pany, being with the latter organiSa-
ton for three years, in leading roles.
Mr.. Cronican is described as an
artist of high rank but always
musician of. and for the average
listener. He Is said to have won a.
place among the very few pianists
OF power and brflliancy whom the
general public truly enjoy. He
strictly maintains his rule, however,
that only good music is worth play
ing and that good music may be made
more enjoyable than any other sort.
Putting in practice this theory, Mr..
Cronican makes his Interpretations Of
classical themes so purely elemental
N presentation that musical educa-
ton is not necessary to their
thorough enjoyment. Music critics In
various parts OF the country have re-
.erred to him as a highly capable &C
as we'll as brilliant
soIoist.
