FRIDAY, MARCH 20, 1925. THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON PAGE FIVE Society and Club News Edited by Rosalia Keber, Psoas II Dadmun Concert Success After all Is said and done an intelligent audience. Is the artist's greatest critic and when an artist pleases his audience as unmistak ably and aa thoroughly aa Royal Dadmun did laot night then there la little left to be eald by the critic. Royal Dadmun baa come rap Idly to the fore as one of Ameri ca's greatest baritones. His sim plicity, his absolute lack of af fectation, combined with his tru ly remarkable voice, result In his instant popularity with an audi ence. One of his greatest charms Is the production of pianissimo tones as well as bis loud sustain ed notes In apparently the same effortless fashion. There Is never suggestion of strain and all is done with equal ease. The program, which Dadmun gave last night was well chosen In that it Illustrated his versatil ity and offered variety enough to keep the audience at all times thoroughly absorbed. Opening with Handel's dignified "Where 'er You Walk" the other two num bars of his first group, Bononcl- Bls "Happy Lover," and the Sur rey song called "Some Rival has Molea My True Love Away," were of the same reserved type. The singer did not offer himself com pletely until be started tbe first number of the second group when he gave the powerful "When the King Went Forth to War," hy Koeneman. In a manner that nade one wonder how he has evaded an operatic career. Lighter and given in a lilting, humorous vein were tho two songs of Mous6orgsky, "By the Banks of the Don," and "The Seminarian." For his next group Dadmun chose to present several Fronch and German songa. His gut of perfect enunciation was most apparent in these numbers ine climax ot the evening was reached, and appropriately 60, in the last group, songs by some of our best American and English composers, and probably the out standing number of the entire evening was the last one on the program Oley Speaks' "Fuizy Wusxy." Ills Interpretation left practically nothing to be desired. Dadmun was generous with the encores for which hie audience clamored. He gave a May Day Carol arranged by Deems-Taylor, Rachmaninoff's "As Fair is She as Noon Day Light," and s French song, "Tbe Mirror," af ter bia first and second and third groups but even then tbe eager ness of tho audience was not ap peased. At the end of the program he was recalled again and again and satisfied the demands of his listeners by giving delightfully negro spiritual and the very pop ular "Llndy Lou." Much ot the success of the Dadmun concerts are directly traceable to the artist's accom panist, Slgried Prager. He Is with out doubt, one of the finest ac companists that a Salem aid ence has been privileged to hear. The concert laet night wae sponeorod by the local MacDow ell club and was the fourth of tho season.
