The flute1 solos, written by Mr. 'Olaf

nor, were a novelty on .tho .program, .as
It Is not often that we hear a flute solo
outside of an orchestra. The first, a
romance. "Memories of the Norway

harmonies.' If one might term as such,
when .hero and there somo progreesjori
reminded one of tlio harmonies which
abound In Orlcg. "Socley March," which

Itself well adapted to tho words and

Mr. Cecil Berryma'n repeated two of
his own compositions whjch he played at
hie recent recital, "Nocturne Fan
tastlque," whjeh shows a leaning toward
,the ( modern Fionch style, and the
"Toeatto,"'ln which a lively theme is
cleverly developed. Miss Daisy Hlgglns
played her own accompaniment and sang
three of her Songs, which won the 11s'
teners by their poetic sentiment, so mu
sically expressed. Mrs. Augusta Molzer
played tvto of Dp Baetens' compositions,
"davotto Elegante and "Valso Noble."'
These are both brilliant and the latter
especially graceful with many opportuni
ties 'f6'r nicety of Interpretation which
Mrs. Molzer observed, .Tho program
closed1 with two quartets by Mr. Krats,
sung by ithe T. K. quartet; a serenade,
"Sleep Lady Sleep,'' and a,i humorous
southern lullaby, "The DIue-TaUed riy,"
which Is very original, both In words and
In Its musical setting.
Tho accompanists were ,Mlss Edith
Miller, Mr. Jean Duffleld, Mr. BlgVnund
Londaberg, Mr. Kenneth Yv'ldenor and
Mrs. Walter Silver. Upon the wholo, I
think Omaha may well be proud of its
local composers. The compositions con?
talned much real music, and the program
was Interesting, not only from 'a pa
triotic point of; view, but from an artistic
standpoint as- well. The .music, depart
ment doserves a vote of thanks' fqr af
fording1 this .opportunity of meeting our
local composers through their- work.
