Miss Scott was the first soloist on
the program and she chose Massenet's
lovely Meditation" from "ThaiS" tor
her first selection. She played 1t beau
tifuily and with q surety and care that
won her instant recognition from her
hearers. A 'Minuet" OF Hochsteins
and Gardner's From the Canebrake"
followed and the last named was in
terpreted with real artistry.
Mr.. Kinsella began his first group
with the "Caro milo ben," by Giordani,
which was followed by Time Was l
Roved the Mountain" from THE Songs
of the Norseland," by Lohr, in which
he seemed to get as keen a delight as
his audience. He has strong, virile
bass voice, of good range. and it was
most effective In this robust compost
ton.
In the familiar II Passed by Your
window" the Brahe-LucaS arrange
ment, the Glee Club was quite at home.
and 1t sang it with much sweetness
and beauty.
Another group by Miss Scott was be-
gun with "Berceuse," by Karl Holer,
with the composer accompanying. This
is beautiful composition, and both
violinist and accompanist made the
| most of it to the great enjoyment Of
the audience, which indicated a desire
to have 1t repeated. Closing this group,
Miss Scott played the Gypsy Dance"
by Nachez, q difficult composition,
played in mastery manner She played
the "Hopak," in an arrangement by
MousSourgsky-Rach as an en-
core--an encore. by the way, that was
almost literally demanded.
The program closed with an arrange
ment of Ave Maria" by Schubert
Saar. in which Miss Scott played the
violin obligato.
Miss Linkins' leadership was evident
throughout the concert, and her group
of singers was ever at her command.
To her able directing and training is
due much Of the success in last nights
program. Marjorie Davis was the ac-
companist for Miss Scott, and her SYM
pathetic work at the piano made an
admirable background for the violinist's S
splendid playing.

MUSIC
THE DORIS NILES BALLET.

Doris Niles, American dancer. assisted
by her sister, Cornelia Niles, Q small
orchestra under the direction of .Vladi-
mir Brenner, and the remarkable fret
ted instrument group, known as Rondal-
Ia Usandizaga (Spanish guitartsts),
brought her ballet in long but nicely
varied program Of dances to Polls
Theater yesterday afternoon.
Miss Niles herself, in the role OF
premiere danseuse. showed energetic
endeavor to please and won her
audience particularly in her dance
Southern Roses" when she threw pink
roses prodigally into that part Of the
audience nearest the stage to the lifting
tune of some Of Johann Strauss most
alluring waltz music. She also won spe-
cial applause for her first Spanish solo,
"Espana Cant" by Marquina, In which
she wore a beautiful white lace cos
tune and distributed her favor between
ground, eSplashed with flowers. Miss
Niles repeated this number-the only
repetition of the afternoon. Another ad-
mirably done solo number was the
Nautch dance in East Indian costume.
Cornelia Niles won prolonged applause
Of encore proportions for her distlnc-
tive and extremely artistic work In
Dancing Waves" a number that was
unique both in lighting and costume as
we'll as in interpretation In fact 1t was
the most unusual number on the Wnoie
program.
The Giesha Girl dance in the "Japa-
nese Cherry Tree Fete"" was perhaps
the outstanding ensemble number from
point of view Of authenticity In a little
tried field. In other more typical ballet
ensembles from the first, danced TO .
Bourree of Bach, In traditional ballet
costumes, through list including
Strauss waltz, East Indian and Spanish
numbers, the eight young girls OF the
ensemble seemed to be skillful and en-
thusiaStic interpreters Of Terps1chores s
art.
The Spanish guitarists proved excel
lent artists, and the applause OF the
audience indicated that they could nave
been enjoyed in group OF numbers
twice the length OF the one given. IL
takes artists of first caliber and Latln
temperament to catch the elusive, sub
tie swing of the Latin music themes and
rhythms. This group could be heard
here again In washington. Their &C
compartments for the dancers IN. the
last group were admirable, too.
Mr.. Brenner's Orchestra worked hard,
and showed not little ability to con-
quer a musical score that was an ex-
acting composite of works by many
classical composers. n. r.
