The soloists yesterday were Ethel
Bartlett and Rae Robertson, duo
pianists, whose previous appearances
have won them the esteem Of this
city's musical public. The splendid
work of the two artists is so mar.
velously smooth and artistic that they
stand as peers of the particular type
of playing which they have elected to
develop. That part of the beauty Of
their playing is based on the deep
personal sympathy between them is

they took part and their interpreta-
ton was marked by spontaneity and
polish which nevertheless held true
to the classic line of the composer.
Playing also the piano section of the
"Carnavel des Animaux," they con-

milton from the audience and the ad-
dition of an encore without orchastra
accompaniment.

Kinder showed a depth of UNDER
standing accompanied by sonorous
volume and musically exposition that
disclosed again the advance made by
the orchestra as musical unit. In
hearing several works by this great
master given in succession the breadth
and grandeur of his conceptions are
more clearly impressed upon one.

tunes.
