Poise rather than power and clarity
of tone rather than mere volume dis
tinguished the offerings of Professor
William H. Knapp's pupils, who ap-
peared in recital on Monday evening at
the Knapp Studios, 165-167 Park
street.
The program for the concert includ-
ed both solo and ensemble numbers.
The latter were rendered by Ladies
Chorus singing under the direction Of
Professor Knapp. Their best number
was an exquisite Interpretation Of the
z Bridal Chorus from Cowen s Rose
Maiden. In this offering both har-
mony and coloring were above crit
cism, making the number fitting fin
ale for very artistic recital.
The individual numbers were almost
uniformly commendable. All were char
acterized by sincerity but simplicity in
Interpretation and by a timbre which
gave evidence Of proper placement and
intelligent breath-control. Accompani-
ments were brilliantly played by Mrs.
w. H. Schroeder, Miss Margaret Beck
er and Mrs. W. Fl. Knapp.
Outside of the direction Of the Choir
US and short speech by way Of in
PRODUCTION, Professor Knapp appeared
on the program only in a cello obligato
for Miss Florence Kingsley s pleasing
rendition of Del Riego's "Rest Thee
Sad Heart -
Especially meritorious for both
perfection Of tone and delicacy Of feel
ing were the interpretations Of Gil
berse Il Two Roses by Miss Johanna
Madsen, Of, RUSSELL yale" by Mrs.
il. A. CAESAR. of Rogers 1.-THE Star =
by Miss Margaret Becker, and Of Find
en- When / Wake by Miss Marion
Bullamore. In the way Of quiet emo
tion artistically suggested Miss Edna
Cameron scored with " A Southern Lul-
laby' by Terry and John Hanny gave
a wistful, irresistible if fragile beauty
to Fairchi1d s "a Memory.
