Concerts



Madame Johanna Gadslxi, the
worlds greatest Wagnerian inter-
prefer, will be heard here In concert
the ballroom OF the Willard Hotel
The return Of this famous artist TO
the musical world has been the occa.
sion of much critical comment. Her
opening recital in New York was one
of the most brilliant affairs the me-
tropolis has had the pleasure OF spon-
soring. She was the\recipient of flow
ers that completely covered the stage
around her. Her appearance was the
sign for a general outburst of APP
plause that terminated in a huge ova-
ton.
Nine. Gadski's critics had nothing
to give but the highest praise for her
work. Her upper tones were heroi-
cally full; her mezza-voce was Of ex-
quisite, softness. and her lower regis
ter Carried a richness that has not
been heard in II before. Her artistry
was OF such marked value that 1t COM
pletely captivated her listeners. There
were shouts, and here and there per-
sons stood up in the audience and
waved wildly. The applause was deaf
ening. The papers were universal in
the agreement that no other soprano
has appeared In New York, since
Nine. Gadski's last concert, who has
been able to sing the program she
gave in the manner in which II was
delivered or with half the complete
mastery Of the roles she portrayed.
Tickets are now on sale at the Jor-
dan Piano Company, Thirteenth and
G streets.

Music at University Club.

Nine Ethel Camp Hugh, of Berne,
Switzerland, mezzo soprano, with Mrs.
John l.. Cable, wife of Congressman
Cable Of Ohio. as accompanist. and
little eleven-year- Rosemary Finck-
ell, pianist soloist, gave a most interest
ing program for Ladies Night at the
University Club on the evening of
November 3.
Selections from "An Incomplete
Anthology OF Swiss Poets.' with poet
ical translations by Madame Hugh
of Significant poems Of contemporary
Swiss poets, introduced a compare
lively new literature 10 America, the
readings by Madame Hugh exhibiting
rare power Of feeling and expression.
She also sang group of modern
Swiss songs that gave opportunity
for a range of expression from the
most delicate humor and fantasy in
the two children's songs by jacques
Dalcroze, to the deeply dramatic quail
ity Of Louis Duchosal's Pour TEtern-
ite."
Two songs by Mrs. Gable introduced
to Washington a young American com
poser whose gift should bring her
recognition among the present genera
ton of Americans in music. The
playing of Rosemary Finckel was re-
ceived with great enthusiasm. She
is a pupil of Felian Garzia and showed
poise and maturity in her renditions
of Bach. Iljinski and Grieg.

HhutNuCoOh HSCClt".
The coming of Ernest Hutchinson In
a piano recital, on the evening Of De-
cember 8. is of twofold interest 10
Washington. First, because Mr..
Hutchinson is an artist who has won
the plaudits Of the world. and second
because his art has become close to
the National Capital through his
group Of artist pupils who are ma
tives of this city. bringing a personal
element into his gift to all music
lovers as a virtuoko pianist and an in.
terpreter of the first rank.
'Hutcheson preached the pure gos-
pei Of Beethoven beauty" said IL. f..
Krehbiel. "A dazzling virtuoso with an
almost superhuman technique" saio
James G.. Huneker. The two attributes
are a wedding Of the opposite poles Of
musical expression. combining skill In
execution with that far deeper insight
into music that means Interpretation.
The Hutcheson recital is given I'M
der the. auspices Of the Whitecroft
Piano School, and student tickets may
be had at reduced prices by address
ing the school. 1926 Madison street

Future of Brazil.

Brazil. which is almost wholly in
the tropics. has the opportunity to up
set the belief that no people can reach
the very highest civilization In q trnpi-
cal climate. The census, Just cont
pleted. credits Brazil with 30.500,O0O
people, which makes Il the second
American country in point Of popula-
ton. Some modern men. of science
maintain that when means have been
found 10 utilize the heat of the sun
as mechanical energy the tropics will
become centers of production and
therefore Of civilization. If that should
be true. what country could match
Brazil. with its great resources Of min
erals, timber and land, and its great
navigable rivers?
