MUSIC NOTES
.By Jessie MacBride

Henry -Gregor, pianist, gave
most interesting lecture recital for
the students Of the Wilson Normal
School recently on THE. Dance
Form as Inspiration Of Classical and
Modern Music" .
He included two East Indian I'M
pressions of his own composition,
"Temple Dance and a Malay
Song also his "Norrland Sciierzo''
and his own transcrIptio ns on the
Blue Danube" Mr.. Smidt -Gregor
traced .'the dance through the works
OF Beethoven, Chopin, Brahms,
Granados, Grieg and Raciinnaninoff,
using the latter's "Polichinelle.
r. ~
Cara Verson, a visiting pianist,
gave a very delightful piano recital
at the Women's Congressional Club,
for the first tea of the season. Miss
Verson is a ''modernists, In a
somewhat conservative estimate of
that term. In Chicago they spoke
OF her playing as being a musical
revel," SO alive is she with the
vitality, the rhythm OF her music.
She played the Kettle Sonata of
Mcdowell, "Humoresque" of Rach-
mammoth, some Bella Bartok, and
music of Sgambati, of modern
Rome. Her pedal technique" Is
found very interesting. And in her
.recitals, Miss Verson gives the
legends that lie back of the sketch
or story the music conveys.

Annie Moffatt, soprano, was soloist
on the program given at the John
Dickson Home by a section of the
