Appears a. csilIst and 10 Heard
Playing Two Pianos simultaneously y
Maurice Dambois, the Belgian cellist
composer and pianist, appeared in the
first Of series Of recitals given at the
Academy of Music last evening in
honor of the fifty seventh anniversary
Of the founding of the firm Of Hoppe
4 Son, and, with the aid Of the Duo.
Art piano, gave a whole program un.
aided.
First he appeared a. accompanist,
playing on a SECOND piano, the &C.
compartment to Rudolph CAMS solo
part of the last movement of the Liszt
concerto in fiat, the solo part being
performed on the recording instrument.
After this he played the solo part OF
the Saint. .Saens' concerto for cello, and
the Du0.Art played the accompani. I.
ment, which had been recorded on the
instrument by NJ. Dambois himself.
Next he sat at the recording instru.
ment himself and appeared in this
number as composer and performer, as
he alternated his own playing with
portions Of his own record of the com.
position. Then he again appeared as
cellist, playing three short numbers
by himself, Boccherini and Pepper,
while the automatic plano reproduced
his own records Of the accompani-
ments. Finally he played the first and
the sixth of the Brahms Hungarian
dances, for two pianos. He had rec.
orded one part which the Duo Art per.
formed while hS played the other part
on the second piano. In this number
NJ. Dambois was heard playing both
pianos simultaneously.
The concert was a very interesting
one and revealed NJ. Dambois as q
pianist, cellist and composer. The
compositions were excellent and musi-
cianly and his piano playing was far
above the average but it was clear that
the cello is his best instrument; as u
matter of fact, he is one Of the best
cellists that has been heard in this
city for long time. His technique is
impeccable, his artistry excellent and
his tone sweet but not large. In his
solos, as we'll as In the pieces for two
pianos, whether duets or solos and ac-
compartment. NJ. Dambois had the ad-
vantage Of playing the solo to his own
accompaniment, a distinction which 1t
Is not often possible to enjoy. How.
ever, 1t showed how exceedingly ac-
curately the instrument records, for it
was generally impossible to tell from
the ear alone whether NJ. Dambois was
playing personally or whether the
recorded version of the composition was
being heard.

ROBERT 3. .MANTELL
HERE IN REPERTOIRE
Opens Two Weeks Season With
"Richslieu," to Be Followed by
Several shakespsa arean Plays

Broad -Bulwer- Lgtton's stacy and
melodramatic ''Richelieu'. makes a
fairly accurate barometer with which
to estimate the probabilities Of series
Of Shakespearean performances. Tie
stilted lines Of this favorite Of the. "old
school" actor are constant temptation
to rant and resort to all Of the hack.
neyed tricks Of the trade. and, If these
temptations are resisted in "Iaichelieu, :"
there IL every reason to expect we'll :
lines and less artificial situations Of the
bard.
Robert b. Mantell opened his present
season of repertoire with the Bulwer-
Lytton play last night. It is hardly
to be expected that any actor Uf his ex .
perience and surety will be able to sur =
round himself with q cast that can even
approach his standard, but Mantll's
'Richelieu" shows evidences everywhere
of his tempering hand and his mastery
Of dramatic lights and shades.
Naturally, he himself stands out 50
pre- eminently from among the rest OF
the players that they suffer by the con
trast. His Cardinal is a convincingly
human man and he never resorts to tho
cheap trickery which makes "Richelieu'
almost burlesque in the hands of old
line thespians. Mantell's repression Is
his distinguishing characteristic in this
part. The years have given him oil the
physical aspects Of the aged churchman,
but his resonant voice is still the sslne
rich organ that it has been in the past
and it is capable Of most effective nu
ances Of emotion.
Miss Genevieve Hamper, still his
leading woman, was an appealing Julie
In appearance though she seemed some
what lacking in full conception Of the
character. The play was beautifully
mounted. Merchant Of Venice" is on
