CONCERT PLEASES
LARGE AUDIENCE
Wonder Piano Playing and
Exquisite IJcder Singing Is
Charm of Program
i No more delightful close to an in
| tcresting series of concerts could
| have been conceived wan that given
I last night in the Technical High
I School auditorium by Constance
! ftulisoil who is a pianist of wonder-
I ists, and Paul Rei.-ners, tenor. Miss
Kulson who is a pianist of wonder
| ful attainments with an art no less
: worth while, is well known here so
j cially and has, since her return from
i Paris, become professionally estab-
lished in New York City. It was, too,
Newell Albright's professional debut
since his return from London.
Probably no more lovely piano
playing has ever been heard here,
than that presented by these two
thoroughly delightful artists, as well
in their choice of composition as in
their all-sufficient technical equip
ment. There was beautiful tone, a
discrimination in the sensing and ex
pression of a nuance and that most
difficult of all qualities to attain in
ensemble playing—the really con
vincing rebato of these mutually
sympathetic artists, which made of
this so recently popular genre of two
piano, music a really vital art.
More than a little curiosity was
1 manifested with reference to Newell
! Albright's playing. It has gained
I wonderfully ljot only in the technical
] side but immensely in distinction
and in broad, discriminating musi
cianship.
There was ample evidence that Mr.
Matthay's statement to Dr. Dam
rosch, quoted in last night's TELE
GRAPH, of "superior equipment and
attainments musically" was not
merely that of an admiring teacher,
for the pupil, whom he considers un
usually gifted.
No less delightful was Paul Heim
er8 —than whom there is no greater
interpreter of the lovely art so well
known to the amateur of George
Hcnschel's transcendent style of
song singing, and of whom he is a
j pupil With a perfectly even register,
j and art finished, in the best sense of
| the word, a reul lezza dl voce, Mr.
} lteimers was quite as enthusiastically
•| received as his fellow artists and
| prodigal with his additions to the
I program—the delightful child's song,
| "The Kekrut" to the first group,
' White's "To Mary, - ' the enthusias
tically received real American folk
• song, "Dear Nellie Gray" and "Drink
I to Me Only With Thine Eyes" were
i given in response to his recalls. "The
] Menuet" of the exquisite Deßussy
i suite was re-demanded of the pian
j ists.
The delightful and discriminating
| accompaniments of John Warner
i than whom Mr. Reimers could not
have found a more sympathetic col
laborator. contributed in a high de
| gree to the success of the concert,
as well as the two Concert Grand
I pianos of recent construction, which
I were kindly furnished by the Stieflf
j firm.
