School of Music Concert,
From Wednesday's Daily Journal.
The School of Music at its second concert hast evenly fully sustained the high reputation which it gained at its first concert in University hall two weeks ago. The concert formed the opening reception of the school to its patrons and those who have subscribed towards the University pipe organ. The large rooms occupied by the schools were beautifully decorated with rugs, bric-a-brac' pictures and flowers, the new grand piano seeming to rest in the midst of a bed of palms The young lady ushers, the cozy little reception rooms, and the home like and artistic surroundings made a delightful accompaniment for a musical program
The concert opened with a selection by Brahm's, sung by the Ladies Choral Club. The club is well balanced and their excellent singing shows the result of careful drill. The program then introduced us to a list of new players, and a series of revelations, young ladies playing long compositions all from memory, not one soloist using notes—in a brilliant, artistic manner, with no apparent nervousness or effort. The first one was Miss Hattie Robinson in M mezkowski's difficult Valse Brilliante—which with the same composer's Polonaise played by Miss Hinman, is often heard on the cochert program of professionals. Miss Robinson's playing was delightfully clear and artistic, and Miss Hinman's light stacatto effects and delicate phrasing were greatly enjoyed.
Miss Wynn and Miss Lichtenwalter have been heard in former concerts of the school—both show marked improvement, Miss Wynne playing Schubert's beautiful Polonaise with variations with much expression, and Miss Litchenwalter giving the true Rustic dance effect which her selection required. Miss Berry then sang Robyn's beautiful song "Answer" displaying a well managed voice of much sweetness and large possibilities. Prof. Penny made his bow as a composer, playing three original short pieces, an impromptu quite chopin in its style, a dashing Valse Caprice, and an exquisite little Mazurka. These compositions showed that Prof. Penny is quite capable of writing very acceptably in the classical style of modern composers.
Part second introduced us to a former student of Prof. Penny's who united her musical talent with him, and to say that Mrs. Penny is a fine pianist would be a very mild compliment. She mastered the technical difficulties of Mozart's C Minor Concerto so easily and with such a superior touch, that we were charmed by the young bride and her brilliant playing. Miss Moore then sang very effectively a song composed by Prof. Penny
which seemed to be descriptive of "his lady." Then came the event of the evening—the bold dash and spirit, refined touch and expression which Prof. Penny gave us in his faithful rendering of the difficult Schorzo of Chopin's fairly took us by storm. This composition every student knows as one of the most difficult and with the possible exception of his Sonata, which Prof. Penny recently played here, the finest composition in piano-forte literature. It was a great pleasure to hear it so splendidly rendered.
The University choir sang an evening song by Calkin very acceptably. Miss Musa Neally showed in her superior touch and brilliant rendering of the difficult Tarantille that she can become an artist without much effort. Mrs. Penny, Miss Burr, Mr. Hair, and Mr. Penny closed the program with a heavy rendering of Wagner's Festival March.
We went home convinced of the fact that the School of Music possessed many talented pupils, and that the new Dean is making the most of them—that the style, finish and execution displayed compures fully as high as that we have heard in similar concerts in Chicago music schools. This concert fully establishes the reputation of the school as undoubtedly the best in the West, now fully established in its new and beautiful rooms, and drawing students from all parts of the state. We congratulate Professor Penny upon his splendid beginning.
AMUSEMENTS.
Beach & Bowers' Ministrel Co. packed the opera house Wednesday evening, and that they gave a first-class entertainment is evidenced by the hearty reception they received. The company is composed of artists of the No. 1 order, and gave as pleasant an evening's performance as was ever witnessed in the opera house. The chestnut bell was out of place at this gathering. Come again, Bobby and Otis; we will greet you with a full house, sure.-Marshalltown Daily News.
