platform. But she offered Monday
evening a wholly unconventional pro-
gramme. made up of songs stimulating
and at times even irritating but al
ways gripping the attention.
They were songs demanding psyche
logical insight and a fine sense of
musical values. They needed also
ability to deliver text in such a way
that the meaning Of the music might
be made clear by 1t. Miss Hager sang
all these songs intelligently. But what
was vastly more significant, she sang
them as If she had thoroughly con-
ceived 1t to be her first duty to inter-
pref them and not merely to make use
OF them to exhibit the quality of her
voice or her technical skill. If Miss
Hager with her slender equipment mad
approached her recital in that manner
she would have made a distinct fail
ure. BY modesty and self -effacement,
by subordination of personality to the
purposes Of the composers, she won
for herself very pretty little success.
At this very hour there Is before this
public (and others) pianist whose
first appearance stamped him as a
virtuoso pure and simple. Music must
bend itself to his whims. He plays
1t as If 1t had all been created solely
to reveal his extraordinary technic and
power Now this pianist gets much
applause. Every one does. Applause
is no evidence Of success. The worst
is like the best. The ever ready palms
beat themselves just as furiously to-
gether for mere bawler as for the
late Enrico Caruso.
The true test of success Is continued
public favor. II an artist can hold
his place before this public by sheer
merit for ten years he is indisputably
a success. Those who wish to observe

chance to be interested in the matter
notice how many singers and instru-
mental performers OF other nationals
ties fail to achieve glorification. But,
of course. that is another story. The
resounding note of patriotism Is not
heard in the complaints Of their
friends.
II the majority of performing mu-
sicians were more interested in the
music they perform than in themselves
and their own doings there would be
less complaining Of all kinds. For
which reason they might all consider
the case of Miss Nina Hager, who
came quite unheralded out Of the West
to give song recital on Monday even
ing In Aeolian Hall.
Miss Hager will never thrill the
shouting throngs in the Metropolitan
Opera House. She has not any far
reaching tones. no clarion high notes,
no flashing colorature. She has small,
thin. unsteady voice and rather
timid and appealing manner ON the
