Mr. MenzendorTs work was as usual refined and artistic In the Beethoven sonata-! he was assisted by Miss Silence Dales, who displayed her versatility by an intelligent-performance at the piano forte.

This young lady displayed facility and clearness of execution, and ln her as yet Immature interpretation the Indu bitable presence of "temperament" was felt. Mr. 'Menzendorfs pupils played with due composure and lack of self consciousness, and barring Inexperience gave an enjoyable pupils concert. .Musical events have not been so plen tiful of late, possibly we are approach ing the end of the season ln Lincoln.
