On December 3d a Piano forte reci tal was given at the Oliver Theatre by Mrs. Fannie Bloomfield Zeisler. The pianist was brought here by Willard Kimball as the second atrraction of the series of artist concerts given under the auspices of the university school of music. It is a pleasure to record eo delightful a performance as was Mrs Zei9ler's playing. As I look back to the days when Artist concerts were less rare than at present owing to my different location on the face of the earth Eheu Po9tuma! I recall a few perfect per formances. The playing of the Kiesnel quartet, the singing of Marcella Sem brich, the piano forte recitals of Pader ewski, Rosenthal, the "Hamlet" of Ed win Booth, (I bad almost said the danc ing of Cavalazzi. but fortunately remembered my location in the State University where the wicked erase from tioubling) and I wish to Bay that in the future I shall remember also the performance of Mra Zeiiler. The lady's playing was remarkable not only for what she did but for what she left un done. She allowed you to read between the lines, she left something to your intelligence. If I catalogued the virtues of the great pianist I should say she had all there were. An exquisite touch, marvellous technique, unerring taste, temperament to burn and also to freeze, evident knowledge of harmonic progres sioa displayed in a marvelous use of the pedal, all the things we call musician ship. It is refreshing to be able to gush again; She almost made one forgive the piano forte its essentially expressionless character! She convin ced me that a lack of appreciation of what the vulgar call "classic music" meaning thereby good music, 1 suppose was the fault of the phyer not of the music! Do not dislike classic mu sic, good people, dislike us who cannot play it or sing it for you! If 1 could only sing like that, with such clarity, purity, beauty of tone, finish of style and all the things which make for righteounees in music you would like the classics, I assure you! As it is, hav ing gushed as much as I like, I shall re turn to what Browning calls "the C major of this life' and revenous a nos moutons which is, being interpreted, "teach other people to do that I cannot do." This is th first duty of ihe teacher. Mrs. Zeisler played this program before a small but enthusiastic audience which demanded encores and got them.
