Music, Dramatics and Ktitdred Arts I ill : id - 4 Farrar Heads List of Artists ; Coming Here Br J. L WaHls A RTISTS who names are a well A known abroad as In New York and Chicago have been engaged by Steers 4t Comas of, this city to come to Port land the coming season, which is now drawing; near. ; Gerald ine Farrar, the world famous tar. will open the season on a date which will be announced later. A bril liant galaxy of world famous artists Will follow in their appointed order : The Klonzaley Quartet will give a pro gram of chamber music of the fluent, exquisite Bort that has made them be loved in every city in the world ; the new tenor. Edward Johnson, who has 'Just signed a three year contract with the Metropolitan to ping the lead ing tenor solos, will give a recital. This singer is greatly esteemed in Italy, where they call him Edoardo di Oiovanni. In New York one critic rails him "this new and astonishing tenor !" Another critic refers to him "as "The big thrill of the week." In Boston ' the critics launched into un Minted praise, ending with "Here, in deed, is a tenor of the first rank." He Sang the title role of "Lohengrin" with the Chicago Opera company here last season. t Two notable artists cross not only a wide continent to come to Portland, in joint recital, but a broad sea as welL For Alfred Cortot, the French pianist, is to come. - He is considered the most brilliant exponent of the modem French school of pianoforte playing; Jacques Thibaud, who is to the Violin what Cortot is to the piano, is included in this Illustrious list. Thi baud is one of the foremopt violinists of the world. Rachmaninoff, the Russian pianist .composer. The est will hear him for the first time this season and this Is his ' first Western tour. His tragic. sombre personality, in contrast with the vitality of his stupendous piano playing, makes his. recital, an event long to be remembered, it is said, and yet his interpretation of Chopin, Liszt. Beethoven, Bac, is said to be pure music; of no personal tinge whatever. Rachmaninoff has written much for the piano, but he has written still WofcI in the larger forms for or chestra. His piano playing is char acterised not only by the relationship of the performer to the instrument, but ky the vastly deeper and closer as pect of te reaily great composer. The public knows him best by his C Minor Prelude. Steers & Coman have been impressing- the world's greatest artists to the West,; covering a period that passes two decades. To be exact, this la -their 22 d season. Music teachers who desire their ta- plls to receive credit in the high "schools of the city for music study outside of school are notified that they must file their state certificates in ther office of D.
