Miss jeanette Weinstein, l6-vear.
Md daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs, William
Weinstein, was warmly received nv
o. large audience when she PLAYED .
benefit concert Wednesday eyenino
AT the Bismarck city auditorium
under auspices Of the Thursday Mus
lcal club.
Promises Of the musical treat IN
store, which may have seemed a bit
extravagant, were justified BY the
performance which the young artist
gave. Miss Weinstein, who has won
the praise Of directors and instn,c.
tors at Curtis Institute, philadelphia
Pa, where she is scholarship pupil
was received with equal enthusiasm
in her home city. Bismarck NAV we'll
be proud to have such a talented
Young woman as q native daughter
and to sponsor her career in what
measure It can.
The superb confidence and the
technical mastery which this Young
pianist has somehow achieved in a
few short years were apparent as
soon as she opened her program with
the very difficult List ARRANGEMENT
of Fantasia and Fugue, G Minor"
intricate even for Bach. Balance and
contrast were unerringly carried out
in every phrase and the composition
showed to advantage the splendid de-
yelopment OF Miss Weinstein,s left
hand.
Plays Chopin Group
The caressing touch employed in
the Chopin nocturne, which opened
the second group, brought out the
full sweetness and delicacy of line
typical of the composer. The rapid
tempo Of the Chopin etude, and the
valse which followed, provided an ex-
hibition Of the technic which is Miss
Weinstein's forte. The valse, as she
interpreted 1t, was shower OF cry
stall clear notes, full of spontaneity.
In the etude, which closed the Chopin
group, the left hand again shone.
In the Paganini-Liszt La Campanel-
Ia her fingers raced over the key
board effecting octave jumps and
trills with agility and without loss Of
precision and perfection Of rhythm.
The brilliant crashing chords and
the delicate traceries and Celebrations,
lightning changes in tempo and the
clear lire Of melody maintined through
the infinite variations of the Concert
Arabesques on 1.-THE Beautiful Blue
Danube" by Strauss-Schulz-Evler,
won huge wave of applause for Miss
Weinstein. She graciously gave an
encore and was called back for bows.
Wins Prolonged Applause
As she closed the First Movement
Of Rubinstein's Concerto in D Minor
for which Miss Belle Menus played
the orchestral part at the second
piano, with measures of crashing
chords, applause matching their
strength swept through the auditor
iun. Miss Weinstein played three en-
cores before she was allowed to go.
Baskets Of flowers were presented
to the artist during her concert, which
was the first she has played in Bis
1narck since she was nine years old.
Miss Weinstein appeared in girlish
model Of pink taffeta and silk net,
deliberately ruffled at the slight train
and from the shoulders to the waist
line in back, and gold sandles. Her
hands are strong. graceful and white
and she made q lovely picture at the
piano. Her manner is marked by the
calm which bespeaks mastery Of her
instrument. When she is playing she
apparently Is obvious to her audience,
lost in the world of beauty OF which
her music is part.
Prominent among the sponsors OF
the concert were Mrs. NJ. W.. Roam
and Miss Menus of the musical club
and Mrs. AL Rosen, who assisted as
chairman OF the ticket sales.
