KITCHEN WILLA PEARL HAYES PRESENTED IN RECITAL PLEASES AUDIENCE Youthful Pianist, Pupil of Florentine Frances Pinkston, Gives Excellent Program Displaying Talent and Musicianship A torrential downpour of rain se riously interfered with the attend ance last Thursday night when Miss Willa Pearl Hayes, aged 14, daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. Ezra Hayes, was presented in pianoforte recital at Zion Baptist church by Mrs. Floren tine Frances Pinkston. The audience, which numbered more than a hun dred, composed of both races, was fully repaid by the excellent program rendered and the musicianship dis played by Miss Hayes, reflecting credit upon herself and her pains- ! taking teacher. The demand for en-1 cores at the close of several numbers, which won a gracious response, at tested the delight of the audience. The simple, but most artistic set ting of the stage, was in keeping with the classical program presented, and the air of culture and refinement surrounding the recital was a most significant and pleasing indication of progress in the cultural life of our race in this community. Young men of the Intercollegiate club served as ushers. Several floral gifts were pre-' sented Miss Hayes and a beautiful i basket of roses to Mrs. Pinkston. Her rendition of Vais Arabesque i by Lack and the three by Nathaniel I Detl, the Negro composer, Night Humoresque and the Juba Dance were among her best numbers and I were played with brilliancy. The program was as follows: Program I. Sonata Pathetique Beethoven II. (a) Prelude No. 6. .... Chopin (b) Prelude No. 22 Chopin March of the Dwarfs Grieg I Love Thee Grieg Vais Arabesque Lack in. (a) Prelude (Night) Dett (b) Hry (Humoresque) Dett' (c) Dance (Juba) Dett At Sundown Butler Scotch Poem MacDowell Scherzo in E Minor Mendelssohn Feu Follet (I) Minor) Rogers Feu Follet (F Minor) Rogers Rondo Capriccioso Mendelssohn Mr. Karl E. Tunberg, the well-, known musician and critic, has favor ed The Monitor with his opinion of Miss Hayes’ recital, which will be! interesting to our readers. _ WILLA HAYES RECITAL Florentine Frances Pinkston pre sented Willa Pearl Hayes in a piano 1 recital at the Zion Baptist church, May 3, in a program which was real ly quite professional in character, j Miss Hayes, although quite youthful, played most creditably. She pos sesses a good technique, fine sense of rhythm, a well trained memory and has good ideas of interpretation. She began with the first movement of Beethoven’s Pathetique Sonata, in which, as also in the following preludes by Chopin, she showed a lack of maturity. This can hardly be otherwise in one of her years. In the Grieg numbers, the Valse Arabesque by Lack, and the Dett numbers, she was more within her range and play ed them in good style. The Butler, MacDowell and Rogers numbers were also well played. The Mendelssohn pieces were creditably played but lacked somewhat in brilliancy that these compositions require. This, however, will develop as the pianist grows older and more experienced. Miss Hayes has exceptional talent and show's that she is diligent and painstaking in her work, which re flects credit upon her teacher, Mrs. | Pinkston, as well as herself. She is ; deserving of every encouragement and has unquestionably a most prom-. I ising future. KARL E. TUNBERG. — PROBATE NOTICE IN THE MATTER OF THE ESTATE OF ALICE PERKINS, DECEAS ED.
