CAPACITY AUDIENCE . rinir iininr rvnihniTn (iiVLVUiundiuumio SPLENDID RECEPTION . : ., -Singers at Mrs. Reed's Com "rplimentary Recital Heartily f Applauded. SOliOISTS' WORK SUPERB DISTRICT MANAGER HAS MANY FRIENDS SMfflcalt Soars enaered With PoIm and Aploxas That Would 3a Credit to Professional. Interest, socially and musically, yes terday centered in the complimentary recital at the Helligr grtven by the voice students ' of Mrs. Rosa Coarsen Reed. The affair wai a notable succbs. The house was filled to capacity, and many people were turned away. Throngs of people musically incline.! and the hosts of friends of the partici pants la the program, accorded tne lnrrs not only? a hearty reception, but literally showered them with flow ers.: TThe soloists were assisted by the Treble Clef club of 21 voices, which Mrs. Reed directed in each of its three r groups. - On each - appearance Mrs. Reed- was given an ovation. The program was interestingly ar ranged, with varied numbers and typvs Of TOtces, making it exceptionally en tertaining from the first to the last number. The splendid presentation of the difficult songs, from memory and with a poise and aplomb that would have done credit to a professional con Cert, made the affair notable. Each of the 'eight soloists, including five so pranos, two contraltos and one bar' tone, gave two "a" and "b" numbers and responded to an encore. Miss Evelyn Ewart accompanied the Treble club and Edgar E. Coursen played the accompaiments for the soloists. , i Soloists' Diction Splendid. Splendid diction marked the, sink ing of all of the eight soloists to a degree that proved a revelation. It was a feature much appreciated. The ; delightful enunciation was pronounced not only in the English numbers, but also in French, Italian and German. In placing a number of semi-classical songs on the program and pre dominating with songs ,in English, Mrs. Reed succeeded in keeping the recital within the compass of the audience. What can be done with a semi-classical .song in English w.is illustrated by the singing of "The Bubble." from "High Jinks" by Mn. Zeta Hollister-Politz. Mrs. Politz has a remarkably clear, lilting lyric so prano of good .range and handles the soft voice work well for so young a singer. The Treble Clef club made a pretty picture second only in attractiveness to' the club's singing. It appeared three times, singing six numbers, with charming ensemble and effective nuanc.es. Both Slags and Flays. Rare are the musical people who ran do what a clever Portland girl. Miss Gertrude Hoeber did last night, when she played her own violin obli ' gato for second sonfr, "Alone In trove's Garden." Mrs. Helen Goss-Williams of The Dalies, is a soprano with a big voice, which she, understands how to con trol. Miss Dorthy Lewis, contralto, sang the blind woman song from "Gioconda ' and Strickland's "Sweetheart" but her simple little encore song "Little Grev Home in the West" pleased the audience most. Some at the recital last night will undoubtedly carry to far away homes the memory of the cottage in Oregon such as the Portland singer told about. Mrs. Hazel Koontz-Day has a pretty lark-liRe soprano voice and sings with much expression. The popular "Kiss Waltz," by Arditi, was given with brilliancy. If E. D. Gilhousen had not been on the program, the women would have had it all their own way. Mr. Gilhou sen. baritone, sang the "Pagllacci" pro logue, "Mother o' Mine," and a darkey dialect encore song, in a pleasing way. Club mrnlshas Knsemble XTumbers. ' Mrs. Helen White-Evans, soprano, showed splendid control of her voice in her numbers, "The Jewel Song" from "Faust," and "La Danza," Rossini. " Miss Alice Juston has a rich con tralto voice, much admired in concert work. Her singing of Verdi's "O Don Vatale" was heartily encored. Immmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmw mL o m Lafayette M. Thomas. Lafayette M. Thomas, state manager for the district of Oregon, Knights and Ladies of Security, will have been In Oregon for two years next June in charge of the field and organization work.
