Monday Music Club.


A program which was an interesting
departure from the usual recital pro-
gram was given by the Monday Music
club in the Y. w. G. A. auditorium
last night It consisted mainly OF con-
certed numbers, the only solos being
two groups for piano. Program build
ing is an exacting art. 1t requires
nice sense of musical values and
above all, experience, for the builder
must be able to see it both from the
inside and the outside-to understand
lit from the angle Of the artist who is
giving it and to hear it as the audi
ence will hear it.
In a club the size of the Monday
Music club the task becomes increas-
lingly difficult on account of the mass
and variety of mater presented
A successful progra requires con-
ltrast rather than comparison, but the
contrast may not be too marked.
sense of cohesion and unity must al
ways be preserved. H.
Last nights program was splen-
did example of well balanced pro-
gram Mainly composed of concert
ed numbers the needed variety was
introduced by two groups OF piano
solos played by Miss Helen kiedaisch
with accuracy and marked degree or
ipoetic insight and musical feeling.
| Two groups of vocal quartettes and
a trio sung by some of the clubs best
known soloists were rendered with an
effect of coordination and consequent
sense OF spontaniety which was most
gratifying and showed the result OF
long and serious work together.
| Further variety which also bespoke
unity was found in the interesting Sc
! uuence of Rubenstein's BaJaderen
dances which, as piano duets opened
and closed the program. These were
played by some of the younger mem
bers of the club and proved most
pleasing introduction of new talent
The program committee which is, by
the way, one of the hardest worked
committees in the club, is to be con-
graduated on the success of this ana
