VII Two pianos, Dause Macabre
Saint .Saens.
Sadye Evelyn Ford, Louise Huntley.
Saint Saens' "Dause Macabre" is
one of the most peculiar descriptive
and original compositions. Saint
Saens was inspired this composition
by the reading of a somewhat sombre
poem. The midnight bell in myster
ious tones tolls forth the hour of 12.
At the last stroke the old fiddler rises
up from his grave and places the trus
ty violin on his fieshless cheek and
tunes the old instrument. Opening
slowly the graves send forth their
shadowy occupants to the midnight
dance in the moon's pale, mysterious
light. By the murmuring water of the
lonely river to the doleful, discordant
notes with clattering bones, the shad
ows glide in mystic circles around and
around. Suddenly the call of the cock
is heard, the bell strikes 1, the shad
owy forms descend again into their
lonely graves and the silence of the
dead again reigns. The piano for the
concert has been furnished by the
Wiley B. Allen Company, Seventh and
Morrison streets, Portland and 709
Seventh Street, Oregon City.
To a Thrush
Where are you that unseen
Among the Maple green
Flings sudden on the silence this de
light? I watch, and wonder whom
Within the deeper gloom
Your song is meant to thrill with joy
tonight
Drinks in with rapture now
Your mate on lower bough,
The song of constancy while love is
young?
Are nestlings on your tree?
No sweeter lullaby
Has ever father bird or mother sung.
Is there no listening ear,
But mine your song to hear?
For mossy pathless glades the Sum
mer long
Oh, leave the forest gloom,
Sing out where gardens bloom.
To toiling men that life has time for
song.
