1 E I SIX MEDFORD (OHECOM) MAIL TMBUMg Thursday. February t. 1150 Society and CLUBS Society Announces Unusual Concert For Monday Night A concert of unusual Interest is to be presented Monday night, February 13, by the Medford Musical society. Since the event will be a guest night, it is being held in the Sunday school hall of the First Presbyterian church in order to provide room for the large audience expected, the so ciety announces. The program for the evening is to be chamber music and will be presented by Miss Melba Che hak, violin and viola player; Harlalee Wilson, violinist; Ber nard Windt, cellist, and Almus Pruitt, pianist. It is believed a program of this type will be of Interest both to the casual music lover and seri ous student or professional mu sician, since there will be great variety, not only in the selec tions chosen, but in the Instru mental combinations presented. "Even in large centers, the small instrumental ensemble is heard too seldom, and the Rogue river valley is unusually fortu nate in having a group of high ly trained musicians who are willing to give the countless hours of rehearsal necessary to prepare such a recital," a society spokesman states. "Because of the small number of instruments used in chamber music, the term meaning literal- Jacksonville Mariners To Hold Dinner Friday Jacksonville Mr. and Mrs. M, H.

California Soprano Sings For Civic Music dissociation By Mrs, E. E. Gore Well, we were at long last and finally given the opportunity to both see and hear Dorothy War- enskjold, California soprano when she was presented in con cert by the Jackson County Civic Music association at the high school auditorium Friday night. Our own community, which proudly stales upon occasion that it Is vitally and actively alive to good music and is appre ciatively alert to some of the essentials indispensable to suc cess in the musical artistic field, had first heard of Dorothy and her friendly ways, her outstand ing abilities in sports, dramatics and singing, from her own classmates who were attending the same California schools where she was enrolled. She even then had a reputa tion for doing everything she APOLLO MUSIC STUDIO ll Moving From 344 North Ivy Street To their former location at 29 QUINCE STREET VALENTINES For thos who hv a special corntr in your heart Se lo $5.00 SWEM'S GREETING CARDS ly music to be played in a small hall or drawingroom, each per former must be extremely profi cient In his instrument and the required perfection of ensemble can then only be achieved through prolonged playing of the group together. "Composers who write this type of music strive for delicacy of phrasing and detail, and per formers are constantly required to bear this In mind as they make music together, ralher than as Individual artists. Many works written for the small ensemble have exquisite charm of color land style and are greatly pre ferred to all other forms of per- 'formance by many discriminat ing music lovers. The concert next Monday evening will offer a wide vari ety of arrangement, since there will be not only ensemble num bers by the four artists, but in dividual solo groups and various combinations." Miss Chehak Is director of or chestras for the Medford public schools, Mr. Wilson is music su pervisor of Talent schools. Mr. windt is Phoenix school music supervisor and Mr. Pruitt is owner of Pruitt's nvwic center of Medford. The program will begin at 8 p. m. and members may bring guests. Mr. Windt will give a commentary on chamber music. MAYTAG AUTOMATIC WASHER ONLY $289.95 Liberal Terms and Trade ... No bolt-down, iimple and easy to instill.

She fairly splashes the fact that she is young and vi tally interested in people and whatever they are interested in, be it swimming, tennis, dramat ics, languages or music. Thus the story of her career reads like an Asche novel, full of exciting detail. An honor student In school, possessing a beautiful lyric voice, versed in several languages, she was given many opportunities to sing in radio and concert be fore she made a brilliant debut in November, 1948, with the San Francisco Opera company She is now an established star. At Tuesday's concert the stage was set and the lights on when Miss Warenskjold made her pleasing entrance and began her first classic song of obvious emo tional anneal. It was dramatic ally exciting to feel how she established her first contacts with her audience and followed them up with successive songs of Mozart, Brahms, Wolf and Strauss till her listeners were confidently and expectantly pre pared for the climax of the eve ning, the arias "Ah. fors e lui and "Sempre Libera" from the first act of Verdi's "La Traviata." She loves to sing and shared the enthusiasm of the audience by giving "One Fine Day" from "Madame Butterfly." Puccini. The clrar, lyric quality of her voice, her ease and freedom of tone emission and her superb control of tonal shading com bined with rare charm of man ner made the concert a delight throughout. After a brief intermission she sang two other groups of songs, further endearing hself to the audience by her informal pro gram comments and informal presentation of selections from Leonard Bernstein's "Cycle of Kid Songs." Further encores were "Heigh o, heigh hi," and old French folk song; "Iris," by Wolf; "Love in the Dictionary." by Celice Dougherty; "My Hero," by Strauss, and "Comin' Through the Rye."
