Opens Series of Thursday
Afternoon Recitals at
dupont Hotel
MARKS ERA IN CITY
OF CHAMBER MUSIC

II the soloists az the remaining -four
Thursday afternoon recitals In the ball
room Of the Hotel dupont prove as ar
tlstically entertaining as did Paul Alt
house. the Metropolitan opera tenor. at
the opening recital yesterday, the pro
ject0rs % the series may well plume
themselves. Certainly in Mr. AlthOuse
they set a high standard. not only for
their own series but for such other re-
ciials Wilm ng.on msy be So fortunate
as TO D ur This season.
In one sense yesterdays recital mark
ed an era In the city's musical life.
While Wilmington has had, and appr,-
ciated, and supported fifteen seasons
- the ph ndelphia Orchestra, and oc-
.cssionally has been favored with ap-
pearances by other orchestras and by
artists OF front rank, the realm OF
chamber music largely has been ne
elected. And chamber music as a par
ticular field offers much OF the finest
music, both in range Of composition
and in Interpretation. It has It's own
following usually and comprises an es-
tate Of its own. However, lovers Of
chamber music often constitute the
genuine lovers Of art for It's own sake
and not for the frills and furbelows Of
society or fashion.
Tho audience gave every evidence II
had anticipated an afternoon Of delight
an anticipation which happily was full
flled. The recital had been much ex-
plotted in advance and Mr.. Althouse's 5
praises sung unto heaven by ubiquitous
but ever valuable publicity agents
Hence much was expected OF him. II
was further noticeable that yesterday
audience. which easily allied lwO-thirds
of the new ball room. was almost en-
tirely composed " women Aside from
