Miss Esther Fryxell. accompanist.
The oratorio was not presented
in its entirety because of the great
length, but the parts that were
sung were given an altogether dig
nified and beautiful production
The work of the chorus is especial
Iy worthy of notice with perfectly
understandable enunciation, neat
and finished phrasing and interest
ing rhythmic effects and a good va
riety of tone color made the per-
Torrance highly satisfactory. The
attack was sure and even, the parts
were exceptionally well balanced
and arranged for the best possible
effects and too much credit cannot
be given for the manner in which
the work was presented.
The work of the soloists was uni
formly good. Mrs. j. A. Martin
has a splendid voice, high, full and
sweet, though she needs further
experience in oratorio singing. Her
rendition of II Know That My Re
deemer Liveth," was unusually
we'll done and note too should be
made of the manner in which she
sang Come Unto Me-" which was
given with much sympathy.

HANDEL CHORUS
SINGS MESSIAH
Large Audience Hears Annual Pre-
sentation Of OratOrio at Au-
gustana Gymnasium.

The fact that the annual presen-
tation of aHnders oratorio 1.-The
tation of Handlers oratorio THE
society at Augustana college last
evening drew a very large audi
ence to the college gymnasium
auditorium indicates that the taste
of the people of the quad-cities
community for good music is sure
ly growing. THE Messiah" is a
serious work and does not appeal
to the general run of musical taste
as far as entertainment Alune is
concerned, therefore the splendid
audience last evening that greeted
the Handel Oratorio society is a
reason for no little amount of sat
isfaction and guarantee of a dis
tinct musical appreciation.
The chorus was directed by Ar
vid SamuelsOn, head of the school
of music at Augustana college, and
it was assisted by Mrs. ]. A. Mar
tin, soprano; Miss Ethel Shapiro,

and greatly pleased the audience
Mr.. Compton's voice is full of
good quality, but lacked buoyancy
and carrying power, although he
gave the recitatives in a pleasing
manner throughout Mr.. HoImquist
is always a delight in the difficult
basso roles, singing without text,
thoroughly sure of every note and
tone, he creates an atmosphere of
rest and appreciation that is won
derfully satisfying. His voice is
large, powerful, flexible and splen-
didly adapted to oratorio singing.
He carried by far the largest share
of the solo work and in every in
stance pleased immensely
To Mr.. Samuelson as director and
the singers in the chorus should be
given much credit for the splendid
success of the oratorio presentation.
The orchestra also did excellent
work and Miss Esther FryxeIl at
the piano as accompanist, which is
difficult and trying position, &C
quilted herself in a satisfying man
ner
There was but one thing to mar
the perfection of the performance
last evening and that was the hurry
of certain individuals to get out of
the building before the close of the
last lumber. During the singing OF
the "Hallelujah" chorus numbers
of people left the building, the dis
turbance seeming close to sacrilege.
