FQber-McArthur
Recital Gives
Rare Pleasure

Erie Faber, Baraboo tenor, and
Miss Margaret Macarthur, pianist
aecompanist, gave a recital of rare
quality at the First Methodist
church on Monday night. Baraboo
people are well acquainted with
the pleasure to be obtained from
any event in which Mr. Faber takes
part. The former Baraboo boy,
son of Mrs. E. B. Winslow, 213 Sec
ond street, is not only possessed of
a perfectly trained voice of unusual
tone quality but his personality
makes his music the more enjoy.
able. He has ability as an enter
tainer, as we'll as a musician.
This was the first appearance of
Miss Macarthur before Baraboo
audience and her accomplishments
as we'll as her piano solo numbers
were a delight for technique as
we'll as the feeling with which she
is able to interpret such composers
as Mozart, Wagner, and Brahms.
Miss Macarthur received her degree
of Bachelor of Music from the Col
umbia School of Music, Chicago,
and she has studied with E. Robert
Schmitz, eminent French pianist.
Her versatility was quite evident in
last nights repertoire when she
gave Mozart's "Pastorale Varie"
closely followed by "Hopak," a
Moussorksky composition.
The wide range of selection in
the numbers given by Mr.. Faber
gave the program a variety bound
to please all tastes. Perhaps no
group of songs was so apprecia-
lively received as the group of
heart" songs which closed the
program, OHara's "In The Wee Lit
tie Home l Love-" '@The Morning
Is Calling" by Terry, when Song
Is Sweet" and 81 Cannot Help Low
ing Thee" His audience refused
to recognize the close of ehe pro-
gram after this group and several
encores were given.
Mr.. Faber sings in Italian and
German with feeling which con-
veys to his hearers the meaning Of
the unknown tongue in manner
quite remarkable. He gave a sell
ection from the opera Andrea
Chenier, CONNIE un bel di di
Maggie" and one need not under
stand the words in order to get the
pathos of the song.
The playing of a beautiful sacred
record which Mr.. Faber has made
was a unique surprise. 1t was very
interesting to hear the voice of the
man on the platform blending with
the voice coming from the Bruins
wick, when the two" sang togeth-
er. Mr.. Faber not only makes
records of some of his numbers but
he has also given several radio
performances, one of which last
winter many of his BaraDoo friends
heard.
"Baraboo's famous son." as T. F.
Risley termed Mr.. Faber in intro
ducing him to the audience last
