On Monday evening, at the college,
Elizabeth Rankin King played her
degree recital Her piano playing
msnifests increasing understanding
and growth at each appearance. The
Beethoven Sonata Op. 81, No. /" was
thoughtfully portrayed, without ex-
aggeration of sentiment and her
Schumann numbers we're in appro-
priately warmer mood. The Debussy
'Hommage a Rameau" and 'Tisle
Joyeuse" with their elusive idiom came
forth effectively from under Miss
Kings fingers, while in her playing
of the entire Saint-Saens Concerto
in G Minor with Mrs. Roberts at the
second piano there was brilliance OF
technique and dynamics which made
a stirring performance.
Margery League, soprano, pupil of
Myron Whitney, assisted Miss King,
singing two number by Durante, the
Verdi aria "Ritorna Vincitor" and
the Manning "Chinois' and Mrs. H.
H. A Beach's Years at the Spring.
