Resale Miller Sings
Soprano Is Heard in Song Re.
cital at Carnegie Hall

Miss Resale Miller, a soprano, we'll
known to the musical fraternity. gave
song recital at Carnegie Hall vester-
day afternoon before large audience.
Miss Miller somewhat handicapped her
self by her opening group. three mum
bers by Haendel. Though there we're
times when in "Sommi Del" and "Tor-
rente Crescinto' she sang with author
ity and knowledge of the true Haen-
delian style. she was often uneven in
her skill in phrasing, and there we're
breaks in the uniformity of her scale.
But later, in Schumann's "Melan-
choly" and "Snowbels," and in the
Hugo Wolf songs she came to her own.
Singing them all in English and with
admirable diction. she gave them with
a warmth and variety of expression
and an acute sensibility which were
worthy OF high oommendation. In
these. and later in lhe songs OF Hue
and Poldowski's "Danson's Ia Clique,
the purity and color OF her voice and
The intelligence Of her Interpretations
proved her an artist Of no mean or
der Miss Miller, in short. added to
the good opinion which We already held
her in.

creme" Has Plot.
Good Music and
Pace in Plenty
New Musical Comedy Pro.
duced at the Vanderbilt
Seeks TO Prove Woman
Is Made by Her Gowns


Creme" the new muscal show which
was produced at the Vanderbilt Theater
asst night, has full sized pot, tuneful
music and occasional bursts Of divert
ing comedy. 1t wss, in fact. devised
rom a light comedy by James Mont
gomery who also made the adaptation,
and Harry Tierncy has contributed
the helpful music.
The piece hinges around the familiar
stage idea that there is an influence
in good clothes which makes for in
telligence, vocabulary, breeding and
success. Although we have seen this
demonstrated in the theater no end,
we have always doubted the truth Of
the theory. We tried it out once for
a month and it didn't seem to do a
bit Of good. The theory was impaired
somewhat last night by the fact that
he heroine looked ever so much better
" o. shn ives on & poor working girl
than when she appeared in costume
winch was announced to be the master
piece of dres Shaking genius. We
have no qualifications which would
Justify US in being dogmatic about
wearing apparel, but we are prepared
TO hazard the opinion that there are
certain shades of pink which should
not be used with certain shades of
orange, even in times Of the greatest
emergency.
However, we are straying from the
strict duties Of dramatic critic which
seem to us to consist Of recording the
fact that Irene" is bright and lively
musical show which was enthusastical-
" received by the first-night audience.
Personally. we could get along without
all the moments in the entertainment
IN which the heroine reached for the
heartstrngs by describing the pathetic
plight of poor working girl without
ball gown to her name.
Edith Day as the heroine, sang nicely,
danced delightfully."- and played her
comedy scenes we'll when she was not
attempting to achieve humorous eft
iects by the simple expedient of talk
'ng very fast We are also of the
opinion that the trick Of seeming cute
is seldom attained by sheer determine
lion. Of course, we do not intend to
disparage will power. It's a fine quality
when not used to excess.
Bobbie Watson as male dressmaker,

occasionally Objectionable. but in the
main Re kept within reasonable bounds,
and al such times he was highly anus
ing. He danced 50 we'll that it seemed
pity that he was not called upon to
contribute more to this portion Of the
en- ertainnent.
The music of Harry Tierney is ex-
ceptionally good. 1t has q captivating
swing and plenty Of tune. Anybody
who goes in for that sort of thing

Berkshire String
Quartet Plays
Two New Works
Suite by Ernest Bloch for
Viola and Piano and Saint
Saens Quartet Features of
Recital at Aeolian Hall

Two works In which the informing
spirit was in odd contrast we're pre-
sented last night at Aeolian Hall at the
concert Of the Berkshire String
eluartet-the Saint-Saens Quartet No.
q opus. 1853, and Ernest Bloch's suite
for viola and piano. Each work was
Delng presented for the first time in
New York and each proved interest
ing, though in radically different ways.
Inc quartet was work such as might
be expected from the dean Of French
composers. It was mclodious set in a
form hallowed b USAGE we'll made,
quite IN the great tradition. It was
played by Mr.. Kortschak. Mr. Gordon,
Mr. Ferar and Mr.. Stoeber in q work
man!lke manner, if with somewhat dry
tone.
Mr.. Bloch's suite was first PLAYED
last September in Pittsfield, where it
won first prize at the Berkshire Cham
per Mus Festival 1t is dedicated by
TIE composer to Mrs. r. S. COOLIDGE, the
donor of the prize. All who know the
previous work Of the Swiss composer.
whether or not they may be sympa-
thetic with its predominant spirit. were
justified in expecting something far
from the ord nary They were right
Inc suite is written in an idiom and in
d SPlilo W'llcH is distinctly MI. Bloch s
own. Throughout it he makes no com
promise, and gives what he must give
regardless Of pubic favor. The suite
has, of course, an Oriental tinge; even
IN its melody, and Mr. Bloch is a
melodist Of no mean order. there is an
+ acrid favor, and its abrupt rhythms
and dissoaances seem borne to us as if
on winds from Eastern deserts. The
three lest movements are the most
completely satisfying, the second of
these i'll particua ar berg of a lofty If
somewhat sombre nobility
1t is said that Mr.. Bloch intended the
suite originally for viola with orches-
ira, and IN the piano part there is evil
dence Of an orchestral inspiration. The
general spirit of the work, though bv
no means joyous. is distinctly hanpier
than that which has Informed the com
positions BY which he is more gen
orally known. This is gratifying and
it is hopeful. The suite was superb' y
mayed by Harold Bauer and Emile
Ferir. The concert closed with the
beethoven Quartet in A major, Op. 49,
No 5.

Gives Fluent Piano Recital

A pianist new to the New York CON
ternoon at 4Eolian Hall She was Miss
Rosa Simon, and she proved herself an
excellent musician and one who pos
sessed a fluent and flexible technique.
Her playing of Debussy's "Rofiets d.
Eau was delicately coored, and in
the Brahms E fat minor Intermezzo
and minor Rhapsody she showed a
fine emotional instinct controlled by a
just taste and sense of dynamic bal
ance. Other things which she played
were the Bach italian Concerto " the
schumann G minor Sonata, and the
Scaratta A major Sonata. Her audi
ence was of excellent size, and it was
abundantly appreciative.
