NINE. MAUDE ALBERT
IN GOOD SONG RECITAL

Madam Maude Albert. of Baltimore. gave
interesting song recital in the Bellevue
Stratford last evening before audience
that filled the concert room.
Her program varied one, embracing
almost every school of vocal writing Nine.
Albert possesses a contralto voice of excel
lent quality and great range and power but
under perfect control. Her manner of singing
Is either dramatic or lyric, according to the
composition, and she seems equally at home
in either style.
She began with three italian numbers of
which the Don Fatale from Don Carlos" of
Verdi was of the best things she did
during the evening. Then came four French
songs by Debussy, Delibes Rabaud and
Saint-Saens. which were done jus: as well.
After two French songs with cello obligato,
she closed with five short songs the best
of which was "Reiver's Neck-Verse" bv
Maurice n. Weyl. of Philadelphia. Mr. Weyl.
who is we'll known as n composer here has
written fine song. which in its musical con-
tent carries out with great accuracy the ideas
of the words. 1t should be better known
Nine. Albert was assisted by Maurice
Eisenberg, ceist, who played with taste and
skill. Miss Etheyn Dryden played the ac-
compartments with sympathy and discretion
At the close of the concert Nine. Albert was
obliged to sing several additional numbers
