Kenneth Allen Gains Wide Range of Praise on Concert Friday Evening ' A most exceptional concert was given at the First Baptist church, June 17. by Kenneth Allen, young Salem tenor. Though only 18 years old Mr. Allen gave -a very interesting and varied program, his large repertoire extending from- lighter, and modern songs to the arias. Including songs in both French and Italian, character son km. NVgro hpirituals and bal lads. ' , Tba young soloist shared hon ors with his teacher. Miss M In net ta Mage rs, whose thorough coach ing was brought out in the .fine style and clear diction of his in terpretation. I His concept" of the text seemed far beyond his years. Mr. Allen'r charming personal ity combined , with a pleasing ' and cultured. ! voice delighted and : in terested the large audience, which included many ; jJf Salem's best musicians and music-lovers of the city, as well as Portland visitors. All of Mr; Allen's songs were de livered with a - poise which was both modest and Natural. Espe cially noticeable was the ease with which he took, the high' pianissimo tones, perfectly placed and dearly enunciated. , : :. :V: The deepest of spirituality was evidenced In his group of Negro spirituals. while the character songs such as: 'The Wreck of. the Julie plante,'. Xohr; : 'Tally Ho." LeonI; and "La Russef Kounti; were portrayed In a most interest ing manner. . , A .difficult selection.

' - - t ' " r ' his rounds $1 night and singing a soothing lullaby to prevent a stam pede of the cattle, was very effec tively done. ' All numbers were heartily ap plauded and while it was under stood that no encores were to be given, insistent applause brought forth the repetition of two num bers, the well loved "La donna e mobile", from "Rlgoletto" and the "Al Nostrl Monti" from II Trova tore." . The latter number was sung with Miss Arbutus Rudie, popular contralto of Salem and member of the Schubert Octette Her fresh and clear contralto was well suited to blend charmingly with Mr. Allen's tenor in the duet work. Mr. Allen was most ably assist ed by three of Salem's most tal ented young people. Miss Mildred Roberts,- violinist; Mr. Clarence Wenger, pianist; and Miss Rudie, contralto- The , ease, naturalness and youthful gracefulness which Miss Roberts displayed on the concert stage and her brilliant work in "Hejre Katl." Hubay and "Fras- qulta," Lahar-Kreisler endeared her. even more in tie hearts of Salem music lovers. Te rapid and difficult finger work of her first number and in passages of the sec ond was taken with an unassum ing ease which was particularly noticeable, and won her applause which demanded an encore. - Miss Roberts also played a well work ed out obligato for Mr. Allen in Massenet's "Elegie." Two piano numbers, "Nocturne Lyrlque," by Borowskl and "Bouree" by Bach-Saint-Saens. were most effectively and careful ly interpreted by Mr. Wenger, who has already won an enviable place among- the ' younger musicians of Salem. His accompaniments : for Mr. Allen were played with excep tional merit, and showed skill and fine interpretive ability. Mrs. Gertrude Cameron, teach er of piano at SHverton and an aunt of Miss Roberts, most artis tically accompanied Miss Roberts' violin solos, .i . I Women1 8 Alliance to Give Silver Tea in .
