The program opened with a group
of three piano solos by Miss Shaw,
"Ninuet Siocosso," by Haydn 'On
Wings Of sons" Mendelssohn-Lisz
and "Scherzo." by Nendelssohn-
and such musicI Miss shaw Is a
great pianist. Her exquisite shad-
ings, her sympathetic touch and her
fiawIeas technique stamped her as
an artist of real distinction.
The second group OF pieces were
reproduced on the Duo-Art from
recordings made by Rudolph Cans,
Ignace Paderewski and Ignace Fried
man. The hUmanness with which
this instrument plays IS almost UNI
canny During the playing OF ChO-
pins "Etude. Op. %. No. g." by
Paderewski. one would swear that
the artist himself was at the instru-
ment The most delicate tonal color
ings were reproduced with beauty
and accuracy.
IngersOH Gives solos.
Frederick II. Ingersoll, violinist
and director of the South Bend SYM
phony orchestra, gave two solos. dur
ing which he was accompanied by
the Duo-Art.
The fourth group of pieces was
arranged to show the artistry of the
Duo-Art In the playing of hargau-
otis 'Nalse" Miss Shaw played al
ternately with her own recorded
playing Was it not for the fact
that one could see Miss Shaw lift
her fingers from the keyboard it
would be well nigh impossible to
distinguish between the playing Of
the artist and the reproduction.
Hungarian Dance No. s." by
Brahms. was played as a duet, Miss
Shaw playing with the Duo-Art re-
cording of Harold Bauer.
An interesting feature of the eve
ming was Louis ElbeTs playing of his

lowed by his recorded playing on the
Duo-Art
The entertainment closed with the
presentation of Chabrier's "Espana. A"
