The srreat interest manifested In the coming Paderewskl concert. Which will be given at the Armory hall, Wednes day evening. January 4. 1M6, direction of Calvin Helllg. shows plainer man anything else can the Arm hold that the superb Pole hsa upon tne musical people of this country. He has Just arrived from Australia, la In splendid health and is eager for the opening of hie American tour, which Is under the joint directionof Ctrarles A. Bills of Boston and W. Adllngton or London. If there la one phase of his superb art In which Paderewskl excels it is his perfect command over pedal effects. With pedals Paderewskl mixes the mus ical colors Of his marvelous tone pi -lures. He uses them in forming a shim mering background from which comes forth a tender, conquering melody; he uses them In exquisite tonsl gradua tions, that are beyond the reach of trained fingers; he calls upon them for sld when he thunders forth a stormy polonaise or grand finale. The rhythm of Paderewskl Is as Inde finable as ths atmosphere thst he mixes. It Is not tsught In the schools. Such rhythm Is essentially Slsvonlc. It Is almost never found among the Ger mans or the Americans; and the rhythm of the French and the Italians Is more a more sharply defined. Inexorable meas uring of time. Rhythm Is fluid and elas tic. Ths advance sale of seats will open Monday morning, January 2, at the box office or the Marquam Grand theatre. Out of town sest orders must be accom panied by money order snd stamped en velope. The following notice comes from Baker City concerning the concert given there Thursday night.
