Vt A tTT PERSONAL AND LARGE AUDIENCE ATTENDS RECITAL Hear Clarence Adler in Su perb Program; Complimen tary to Local Firm A large audience attested with frequent and hearty applause, the playing: of Clarenco Adler, student of Godowsky, In recital last night at the Technical High Auditorium. The re cital was a complimentary one given by the J. H. Troup Music House and served not alone to exploit Mr. Adler's ability but to show as well the re markable reproducing qualities of the Chlckering-Amplco, reproducing piano. In the recital Mr. Adler was assisted by Mrs. 'William Bumbaugh, a local soprano whose voice has de lighted in many previous concerts. At the piano as accompanist was Mrs. Bent 1.. "Weaver. First of all Mr. Adler is an artist of marked ability, and though occupying a prominent place in the musical world now, is destined to an even greater one in the future. Superb I*ronram His program was opened with G Major Impromptu by Schubert whlcn number shared with the inspiring Sonata Pathetique which Mr. Adler played with a delicate sense of technique and understanding. "To Spring" by Grieg was Mr. Adler's next number, and the first to be re produced on the Ampico. After Mr. Adler had left the stage came "To Spring" on the other piano (the Ampico) in exact reproduction. It was virtually Mr. Adler, but without him, for he had made the roll from which the selection was reproduced. Thus is accomplished the exact tonal reproduction, the delicacy, the technique, the massive effects so earn estly striven for by hand playing. The Ampico is heralded as the nearest ap proach to individual playing and in both the fields of the delicate and the massive did the Ampico last night prove the assertions made for it. Closing Numbers One other number, the charmingly brilliant Chaminade number "The Fauns" was reproduced on the Am plco in truly faithful manner. Mr. Adler closed the program with Chopin's Scherzo in B Flat Minor. This number was played with a genuine finish. Mrs. Bumbaugh always delights her hearers, and in the Troup recital there was no exception. Her tone beauty, and true interpretation is the charm she gives and In her share of the pro gram was the audience particularly favored. Her "big" number was an aria from "Mignon" and was later fol lowed by two groups, which she sang charmingly. These groups included: "The Robin Sings in the Apple Tree," MacDoweil; "The Leaves and the Wind." L. Leoni: "The Gift," Brown; and "There's a Rosie Show in Derry," bv Hahn; "Bonnie Doon," "The Lass With the Delicate Air,". Arne: and "When the Swallows Homeward Fly," Cherry. The whole concert was a most ap preciated one, rating high in true artistic ability. MAX ROBERTSON. The Rev. H. K.
