the drama Of music whatever its
type Is especially keen, Mr.. Steffe has
gained a potsc in his delivery that
adds considerably to its effective
ness. His fine voice, richly toned and
resonant, has taken on more color
and lends itself to greater variety
of nuance. Every phrase is intelli-
gently planned and delivered with
artistic restrain even when the full
power Of his voice is called upon or
the full extent of his range.
In a second group, two songs by
Edgar Priest, Aspiration" and
Shadows" were the most outstand-
ing. In these his mezzo forte and
pianissimo held an emotional note
that gave force to the poetic text.
The three following songs, while ex-
cellently presented. had less of musi-
cal value, Granville Bantocks THE
Celestial Weaver" and Hans Her.
mann's "The Three Comrades" being
a little artificial in their striving for
effects. Mallotte's "Sing a Song of
Sixpence" is one of those delightful
nonsensical numbers, the main aim
of which is to brighten a program
and for this end is admirably suited
when sung as Mr.. Steffe did it.
The extraordinary clarity and
easy emission of Miss Holtzscheiter'
voice comes especially we'll to the
fore in French songs, four Of which
she gave in her first group. The ex-
cerpt, PLUS de Dept, plus de iris
tesse," from Gretry's Les Deux
Avares," was beautifully sung with
a classic line, while Ravers Vocal
ize," with its tonal nuances, his
charming "Nicolette" and Debussys s
"L'Ombre des Arbres" could not
have had a better medium of pro-
lection than the sweet, cool tone
which Miss HoltZscheiter commands
In the "Sevillana," from Massenet s
Don Gear de BaZan," an occasion
was offered for her brilliant color
atura to be heard and the pure, true
tones of her highest register, which
are unusually lovely in quality and
freely produced.
Appearing q second time, with
Carpenters when I Bring to You
Colored Toys" the first of five num-
bers, Miss Holtzscheiter reached the
peak of expressiveness in her sing
ing OF this lovely song, followed by
Michael Heads dainty The Piper
Two songs by Richard Trunk, "Ver-
trag" and "Menuett," led to Strauss
"Staendchen," one of the most ef-
fective numbers for a voice of Miss
Holtzscheiter's refined character.
Both artists, enthusiastically ap-
plauded after each number, gave
encores and concluded their pro-
gram with two duets, the La dove
prende," from Mozart's THE Magic
Flute" and "Dunque 10 son." from
Rossini's I'll Barbiere de Seviglia -
Marjorie Davis provided finely
modulated accompaniment for Miss
Holtzscheiter, while William Brack-
EFT performed the same service for
Mr.. Steffe.

Recital Acclaimed
By ALICE EVERSMAN,


Ina Holtzscheiter, soprano, and
Edwin Steffe, baritone, two of the
outstanding young artists of the city,
appeared in joint recital last evening
at the Arts Club. The following
which these two young singers have
acquired and the wide interest in
their work was attested by the large
audience, which filled the audito-
rum and overfoWed to the rooms
beyond. Both have steadily pro-
gressed in their art within the last
few years and today can well stand
as representative of the serious out
look and artistic capabilities of the
younger musicians of the city.
The program, while always enter
tanning, was we'll chosen and in
good taste, presenting works that
showed the singers training and
high standard, and others which ap-
pealed by their lighter character yet
were never banal in style. Mr..
Steffe opened the program singing
group which included Marks
"Gebet,' Brahms "Mein Maedel hat
einen Rosenmunde," Holmes "Au
Pays" and DE Tart splendeur i'm
mortelle" from Diaz' "Benvenuto
Celllni"

outstanding performance as Goeb-

has reverted to his original name,
Martin Kosleck, and plays an i'm
portant part in Career Man." with
Joel McCrea. Kosleck's own career
has been interesting. OF Russian
parentage, he studied with the Rus
sian Ballet and is talented dancer.
He paints very well, had an exhibi-
tion of his work last November at
the Marie Sterner Galleries in New
York. Not the least of Kosleck's
career high lights is that he went to
school with Marlene Dietrich, of
whom he recently made an excel
lent portrait study. .
James Cagney may get to play the
George role in "Of Mice and Men"

the play, Jimmy was scheduled for

Lewis Milestone bought it, Cagney
