SOCIETY CLUBS MUSIC
Nezv Instrumental Ensemble
Makes Debut In Medford
w Gladys Adimioa
A new Instrumental eneemble made lti debut in Medford
Monday evening when tne Meaiora musical society prtrenira a
ouartet of professional musicians in a delightful program of cham
ber music. From the first note to the last, all eyes were fascinated
u.. ik. .n...lnn noilltv anH adaDtness of the artists, and all ears
were charmed by the beauty of sound which resulted from their
combined artistry,
The nerforming musicians
were Miss MeiDa unenaK, vium
and violin. Horlalee Wilson, vio
lin. Bernard Windt. cello, and
Almus Pruitt, piano. Their high
degree of training in their chos
en instrument, together with
countlejs hours of ensemble play
ing, resulted in a perfection of
performance too rarely heara
anywhere; and Rogue River val
i.u i. mnt fortunate to have
such an ensemble, not only to
present the greatest in chamber
music lor us own inusit i"",,,
u,. ain in rarrv from our val
ley to other communities, proof
of our cultural aeveiopmem im
Interest. There can be no doubt
that an ensemble of such caliber
will very soon be in demand
"over the mountains" in many
directions.
Preceding the program a com
mentary on chamber music was
given by Mr. Windt, whose wide
knowledge, together with an In
fectious enthusiasm for ensemble
playing and humorous sidelights
on the subject, made his remarks
highly entertaining.
The group presented one move
ment each from three piano quar
tets, the first being the third
movement of the Chaunon
"Quartet in A Major". This
number glowed with rich but
subdued coloring, In the con
ventional style of tis Belgian
composer. The third movement
of Beethoven's "E Flat Major
Quartet" proved highly satisfy
ing, with, its full broad harmon
ies and antiphnnal treatment of
thematic material.
In great contrast to these two
numbers was the second move
ment of a quartet by the French
man, Gabriel Faure. This com
position, in C minor, was al
most ethereal In its delicacy of
tone and exquisite tracery of
pattern. One after another the
instruments began a figure, only
to be imitated by another voice
so intriguing that one could not
resist it, An amazing crescendo
was followed by a lovely muted
section which led again Into such
a sweeping volume of tone that
one could hardly believe It pos
sible from only four instruments.
In contrast to the quartets.
Mr. Windt and Mr. Pruitt played
the second movement of Grieg's
"A Minor Sonata for Cello and
Piano." The beautiful melodic
lint and sentimental tenderness
of Grieg's style was expertly
portrayed by the two artists in
this number. I
The greatest novelty of the
evening was the performance of
"Passacaglia for violin and vi
ola, the theme of Handel and ar
ranged by Halvorsen. This nunv
ber. which has no piano acconv
panlment, was played by Miss
Chehalt and Mr. Wilson ana was
so amazingly Intricate in con
struction and technique, and so
brilliantly played by the artists
that the audience was literany
swept into wild applause at its
close. Although undoubtedly
new to the hearers, their pro
longed applause bespoke its
splendid rendition.
Upon insistent demand, the en
semble concluded the evening
with an encore "Bagatelle" by
Dvorak. This number was scored
for piano, two violins and cello.
Miss C h e h a k exchanging her
viola for a violin.
During the reception which
followed the program, the art
ists were besieged with ques
tions as to the date for their
first public concert. It is to be
hoped that everyone in our val
ley may have an opportunity to
hear this exceptional ensemble
In the near future, for It Is of
such excellence that many con
cert managers would gladly book
It on tour.
Miss Mabel Nansen presided
at the brief business session early
in the evening and hostesses for
the reception were Mrs. Mamie
Sleeter, Mrs. Fred Stang, Mrs.
Gertrude Warnock and Mrs.
Mabel Sims.
