E. Gore) Mario Berini, young American tenor fresh from a recent con cert tour in .Mexico and South America, was the artist chosen to present the second concert of the 1945 series of the Jackson County Civic Music association Thursday night at the high school auditorium. - Berini pleased his audience with his colorful and beautiful singing. His manner is warm and compelling and he at once estab lishes a sympathetic relationship with his audience. Perhaps this receptive and non-critical feeling between artist and listeners is more easily established by vocal artists than others because many people enjoy excellent singing oi art songs, such as those making up Mr. Berinl's program, more than any other type of art. "Where'ere You Walk", Handel, and the aria "La Fleur que tu m'avals Jetee" from "Carmen' were especially liked, but there were no dull numbers and the Schubert group as well as the modern nationalistic selections were equally enjoyed. Mr. Ber inl's voice Is appealing in qual ity, and has a wide range. Tern Deramenlallv ho t nhlo n nrn. ject Intense feeling as well as subtleties of emotion into his program. The expert and accomplished accompanist was Carl Fuerstner who so ably accompanied Sidor Beiarsky, basso cantante, who opened the concert series last season. Mr. Fuerstner was greet ed by many old as well as new friends. Berinl's encores were: "Duna" by McGill; "Hllli of Home" Fox; "Vienna, City of Dreams", Sczinskl. and 'Cielitn l.inHn- Fernandez. The next concert is this after noon, at thS hish sohnnl, audi. torlunt at 3:00 o'clock and will oe presented by the National Operatic Quartet.
