MUSICAL TREAT
OF LAST NIGHT
Testimonial to Sara Lemer,
Appearing With Reinald
Werrenrath, a Success
Those who had the pleasure and
privilege of attending the testimonial
concert last evening at the Orpheum
theater were well repaid by a mu
sical treat not often duplicated in
Harrlsburg.
The well-filled house presented a
pleasing picture, and the pretty
gowns of the women, the evening
clothes of men, helped to make us
realize that this "was a gala occa
sion, as Indeed it was, for this com
munity was in attendance to do
honor to a daughter of Harrisburg,
Miss Sara Lemer, violinste. The as
sisting artist was Reinald Werren
rath, baritone, whose accompanist
was Harry Spier, whil% Newell
Albright acted in the same capacity
foi Miss Lemer.
From the opening number to the
end, the program was a delight.
There was not a moment throughout
the entire presentation which was
not replete with interest. There were
no weak spots and it was a joy to
realize that one of these artists is
our own.
Mr. Werrenrath opened the pro
gram with a beautiful group of
songs, his beautiful rendition of
"Caro Mio Ben," written in the sev
enteenth century, was possibly one
of the most delightful hits o£ the
evening. Especially attractive were
the "Chinese Mother Goose
Rhymes." by Bainbridge Crist. They
were full of life, and demonstrated
that the Chinese are full of humor,
and love to sing about things of
their everyday life. This group was
unique and proved to be one of the
chief features of the program. Ot
course Mr. Werrenrath sings every
thing so well that it is rather un
wise and foolish to say that he does
one style better than another. He
sang almost every type of song and
is indeed a most versatile artist and
does everything well. He has a re
finement in his work, not often
heard:, his art of tone coloring, his
beautiful diction and extraordinary
interpretation are a joy, and this,
combined with a beautiful voice,
mr.ke him the splendid concert
singer that he is.
Fine Local Artist
Too much cannot be said of Miss
Lemer. She is an artiste worthy to
appear on the program with any of
the great artists. Her tone is beau
tiful. sure, delicate, yet firm if need
he. She has a splendid technique
and wonderful temperament. Cer
tainly nothing could have been more
beautiful than the delicate work
done in the Lullaby of Riger, then
too. she did a delightful piece of
work in the rather modern Hejre
Kati, by Hubay.
Miss Lemer gave two movements
from the Mendelssohn Concerto in
E Minor, and certainly gave us of
lier best in this number. Of course
every one just loved the "Para
phrase" on the "Paderewski Minuet"
by Kreisler. Her concluding num
ber was unusual in character, the
"Scherzo Tarantelle" by Wienaw
ski. and proved to be just the right
selection as a finale to her own
charming program.
In support of these artists were
two very able accompanists. Mr.
Spier played the entire program for
Mr Werrenrath without a note, and
has- music was charming.
Mr. Albright is well known and
needs no introduction, but certainly
e\ en so his beautiful accompani
ments deserve notice, for they were
those of an artist. It is one thing to
be a soloist, but he can do both. t
His work was lovely.
Too much praise cannot be given j
for this beautiful program. It is to i
be hoped' that it will not be long ,
before Harrisburg will again have i
the pleasure of hearing these two j
gifted musicians.

SUPPER PARTY
AFTER CONCERT
Participating Artists Honor
Guests at the Payne Home
Last Evening
A delightful little event following
| the Werrenrath-Lemer recital last
I evening at the Orpheum was a sup
| per party given by Mr. anil Mrs.
| Frank Payne, at their home. Front
; and Muench streets, in compliment
!to the participating artists, Mr.

Appointments of pink, with orchid

! the table, around which gathered
; Miss Sara Lemer, Miss Cora Lee Sny
der, Reinald Werrenrath, Harry
! Spier, Allen Sangreee. Newell Al
i bright, Mr. and Mrs. Payne.
During sparkling chat, musical and
otherwise, Mr. Werrenrath, who
just returned irom a tour across the
continent, told some interesting
stories regarding the unpopularity
of songs sung in the German lan
. guage. Starting at San Francisco
he found the sentiment waxing more
and more bitter until arriving at De
troit he found that the public would
not stand for anything suggesting
German. Although an American
through and through, a graduate of
New York University, his German
name was against him and he re
j ceived many sharp letters protest
ing against any program including
German words. He and his accom
panist were up against it to sud
denly revise their whole program
without a Lieder selection—a diffi
cult matter, as it has long been the
custom for vocalists to start build
ing the repertoire around a German
r - Werrenrath is in
1 hiladelphia to-day with a number
of prominent musicians who are giv
ing talks for Victor records on
' Singing as a Diversion From the
Monotony of War Topics."
