TUESDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1925 TH13 CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON PAGE FIVE Society, Cl ubs and Music J Edited by Rosalia Kebar, Phone 82 MacDowell Program a Success The eevernl hundred men and women who attended the concort In Waller hall last night know without a dohut that the Mac Dowell club of Salem la filling a distinct need In tho musical lite of tho community. The program, the first one of the year and giv Bn entirely by club members, woe or tho highest and beet type and m executed by finished artiata whose " presentation and interpretation completely satisfied. Tho plan of giving a number of program meet Inga during the year for the as sociate members and their guests Is a new one. Last night's eon cert augurs well for a successful season and won for the club a host of new devotees. . Tho aim and purpose of Mac Dowell clube giving the best music to the people of the coun try was ably presented to the audience last night by Mrs. E. C. Pcets, president of the Portland MacDowell club. Mrs. Pects gave a short sketch of MacDowell's life followed by a recitation of the trugglea of tho composer's wire, after bis death, to establish a colony where artists could work without interruption or distrac tion. Such a colony had been their dream' for years and because of her faith and continuous strug gles against sickness, poverty and constant discouragement from other artists, Mrs. McDowell has been able to found such a colony at Peterborough, New Hamp shire. Mrs. Pcets' address was an Interesting feature of the evening Salem music lovers who have always been admirers of Miss Dorothy Pearce, pianist, wero ac corded a rare treat last night when Mies Pearce made her first public appearance since studying in Boston with Madame Antoin ette Szumowska. In two groups of MacDowell numbers Miss Pearce exhibited a complete un derstanding of the music which Bho was interpreting, an interpre tation which was lucid and also showed depth. Her touch, com bining great strength and great delicacy. Is one of her great 1st charms. The first group In last night's program was given by Mary Talm idge Headrick and Viola Vercler Holman, violinists, with Miss Pearce ploying the accompani ments. They played first Mac Dowell's "With Sweet Laven der" and then the well known "To a Wild Rose" with a sympa thy of understanding and appre ciation that was a joy to the Het- nerB. In her first solo group Mies Pearce gave three program num bers, Improvisation, Rlgaudon, Mid A. D. 1620, and an encore. Rlgaudon wae particularly well done made one think of little loldiere marching over the hill with all the precision and grace f his majesty's picked regiment. The "A. D. 1620" showed well Mies Pearce'e capability with the - ponderous type. Tho last two numbers by Miss Pearce "Scotch Poem" and "Etude de Concert" were equally enjoyable. Trista Wcnger Powers, popular . Balem contralto, accompanied by Mlea Josephine Bross. sang two MacDowell songs last night In her usual splendid manner. The final group ou the program con listed of two songs by the Mac Dowell club quartet, Ada Miller Harris, Ruth Emery Riddle, Blanche Chamberlain Galloway and Margaret Hodge Rosecrans. The work of tho quartet last night makes the prospect of hear ing them at other concerts during tho winter a distinct pleasure. They exhibit a depth of tonal quality seldom found in a group of woman's vo'ces. Following the concert a recep tion was given in honor of Mrs. Peets.
