The New York Tribune lias the fol lowing to say of Miss Winifred JJyrd, Oregon's real pianist, following her concert In that city: The size of her audience which overflowed onto the stage, was an In dication of the general Interest In tne playing of Winifred Hyrd, who gave u piano recital at Aeolian Hall last evening. Miss Bytd is that Kara Avis among the American pianists of her generation u personality. The alert ness of her step as she comes on the Rtuirt I hp enthusiasm with which she upproaches every composition and the Intensity lhat pervades her interpre tations afford welcome relief from Hie comiuonplucc. the placid and the con ventional. Her highly trained fingers ure guided by unusual intelligence. Hhe has a .feeling for line as well as for detail. Her Interpretations tire In variably, interesting, original, authori tative. Her program last evening Included music by Schumann, Chopin, Mac , UowvlLtiuJiJHKU Occauinually, as In tho Kasthing-schwanli.
