ROSAMOND JOHNSON AND
TAYLOR GORDON PLEASE
LARGE AUDIENCE

A large and enthusiastic audience
greeted ]. Rosamond johnson, com
poser and baritone, and Taylor Cor
don, tenor, at Technical High school
last Friday night, when these artists
gave a delightful program of spirit
uals. 1t was their first appearance
in the city. The concert was given
by the Women's College club for the
scholarship fund for Omaha high
school girls.
August M. Borglum, well known
musical critic of the Omaha World
Herald, published the following ap-
probation of the work of these tall
ented musicians in Saturday morn
ing's issue of his paper:
Due to the courtesy of the Omaha
College club, an Omaha audience has
had the privilege of hearing an ex-
ceptional presentation of art at the
Technical High school auditorium on
Friday evening, in the singing of Ne
gro spirituals by J. Rosamond john
son, composer and baritone, and Tay-
lor Gordon, tenor.
The art of Mr.. johnson and Mr..
Gordon is an art which stands by it
self, fascinating because of its alb
solute sincerity and freedom of ex-
preston. It is an art entirely racial
on account of it's characteristic sim
plicity, its decided rhythms, the in
dividual quality of the voices and the
totally free way in which they are
handled. Always musical, always
sincere, these singers aim to please
and they do, in a most decided man
ner.
The first group, consisting of
Didn't My Lord Deliver Daniel, +"
by and By" 80, Wasn't Dat a Wide
River" repeated, and the Band o.
Gideon" were all songs of a truly
spiritual character and were deliver
ed with deep feeling by Mr.. Gordon,
enriched by the fine voice of Mr.
Johnson in secondary parts and his
versatile accompaniment.
The next three songs, Joshua Fit
de Battle o. Jericho" by Brown,
"Roll De or Chariot Along" and
my Lord Says He's Gwinter Rain
Down Fire." were full of originality
.,d obo,aa4ar EfC+ans C+;1l To~J,,, 3,
was very dramatic number and the
sclosing group cor Time Religion, y
"Scandalize My Name" by Burleigh
and Witness for Ny Lord" were
given with a great deal of enthusi-
asm.
Among the encores were go Down
Moses" Nobody Knows the Trouble
/ See," There's No Hiding Place
Down There" Maybe You Will Love
Me-" Gan Gods Children Got Wings, -
Don't Toucha Ma Garment" and
Under the Bamboo Tree" in which
the audience joined in the chorus.
Nearly all of the selections were
opened by Mr.. Gordon, Mr.. Johnson
answering with subdued voice in
contrapuntal style, and also taking
second verse, or singing in duet
form, making a most effective en-
semble. There were the peculiar in
Elections of the Negro voice, the emo
tional CALCULATIONS of the over
wrought religious enthusiast and the
characteristic rhythms which belong
to no other race and which Mr.. John
son, who has arranged all these songs,
understands so well, all of which
showed great versatility in both com
poser and singers.
Mr.. Johnson made a big success
with his ''Lil' GAL" sung and played
by himself. Some of the selections
were full of humor, and with the ia
cial expression Of the singers became
very amusing.
