Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1946-02-12
By Alice Eyersmon

The cello recital given last night
by Louis Potter, jr., in the Phillips
Gallery brought out good-sized
audience that welcomed the artist
with special cordiality. Mr.. Potter,
who Is teacher of cello and theory
at the University of Illinois and will
assume the same duties this summer
at the National Music Camp in IN
terlochen, Mich, had the assistance
of his father, Louis Potter, at the
piano. The ensemble was smooth
and finely balanced, with both per-
formers in complete artistic accord.
Mr.. Potter possesses sympathetic
tone, which was first disclosed In the
melodious "Siciliano," by Bach. The
Boccherini Sonata in A Major"
which followed, offered more techni-
cal problems in the way OF rapid
bowling, double stops and trills and
the sound character of Mr.. Potter's
mechanical equipment showed to
brilliant advantage In this work.
Excellently written for the instru-
ment, 1t takes the player into. the
highest positions and calls forth the
cello'S full resources in most effec-
| tive manner. Mr.. Potter realized
these demands with easy skill, eli
making with a broad and lovely
cantabile in the final movement.
The much-neglected Sonata in
F Major" by Richard Strauss. gave
the artist another opportunity for
drawing rich contrasts from the
cello and for appreciation Of his
scholarly approach. The sonata
from Strauss formative period Is a
grateful work, although it does not
have the individual touch that
marks the composers later style. 1t
combines the romantic and the
heroic, the former in its graceful
melody and the latter in the big
opening chords, and has swing
that brings movement and variety
throughout. Mr.. Potter played it
with more freedom than he en-
ployed in the preceding numbers
and his tone was expressive In the
andante, reaching dramatic power
in the final allegro.
The program concluded with
Pianelli's Willamette" Handel's
"Menuett,' Sgambati's "Serenats
Napoletana" and Peppers "Chanson
Villageoise," all of which were de-
livered with polished refinement.
Choral Music Concert.
In the Metropolitan A. M. E.
Church, the Washington Com
munity Chorus gave concert of
choral music under the direction of
Warner Lawson. The group, num-
bering approximately 60 members,
has fine range of vocal color, the
whole reaching mellow sorority in
ensemble that is of exceptional cali
Der. Mr.. Lawson has a true under
standing of choral balance and
makes use of the naturally fine
quality of the voices for many ar
tistic effects, without undue strain
or forcing.
The first group of numbers opened
with Gaines "Salutation," continu-
ing with christensen Beautiful
Saviour" with its hummed intro
duction; Bachs How Shall I Fifty
Meet Thee?" and concluding With
the choral arrangement of Schu-
bert's "Omnipotence," in which Mil
dred Austin sustained the solo part.
Other soloists were heard in the
group of spirituels: Hilda S. Simms
in Works arrangement of "Rockin'
Jerusalem, Alma Montgomery in
Pray on the Way" Druscilla Bod
die and Virgil Hamilton in set

mighty" We need to emphasize
this teaching of separation. The
line of demarcation between the
Christian and the non-C Christian is
too nearly obliterated. A Christian
is called out man - a devinely
saved man a spirit filled man -
an obedient man - sold out man
- God possessed man.
Note again the Master says,
MANY will say unto me that day,
Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied
in they name? and in thy name
nave cast out devils? and in thy
name have done many wonderful
works? And then will l profess un-
