NI,s1y tpI. charms and thrills. Force and flexible lingering combined with brilliant tech nical skill characterized her first and concluding numbers. In the light, rum ming movement of the Anegretto and the piping, fiute-like strains Of the pastorale, the utmost delicacy Of shading and artistic expression was given with warmth of feeling and re- fined workmanship, while Rhapsody, 8 graceful composition of fascinating, changing themes was eXquisitely in- 1 terpreted.

 in Norwich for it's interesting cham Der music, played. as always, with ab- solute unity and .one ness. Haydn Adagio was rendered with the rich
 harmony characteristic of it's noble
 passages, while their two light selec- tionS, performed with round beauty . of tone resonance, emphasized anew the graceful blending of technic and i 1 shading from the perfect ensemble ! work of this quartette which has prac- ticed weekly for several years. l As soloist Mrs. Buckingham charmed the audience with her sing l ing. Possessing a lyric soprano oi ! remarkably sweet timpre and wide : range. her songs were admirably
 chosen to show the mellow, golden qual
 ities of her voice. The always lively , Angels Guard Thee. the tender pathos Q of In Some Sad Hour, and the whim . sical, lifting char1 of The Morning Wind, all sympatheticaly accompanied Q by Miss Fuller, were sung with keeI : dramatic instinct and artistic appre
 citation.
