Oftimes it seemed that the story was unnecessary, so well did the brain, through the agency of the singing strings, bring out the composer's thoughts. Mr. Perry's Eaglish is faultless, his tone and style that of a finished speaker and his periods convincing by their very directness and easy simplicity. He rendered selections from Bee thoven, Chopin, Grieg, Rubinstein, Saint Saens and Liszt. His playing was faultles-, the execution exceed iPJClxJaiJliani :nd .the. .programme -a : most interesting Qe throughout His interpretation of Chopin was specially happy.
