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.
