BUT - SEO;C0KCOT OF TOE, HAY FESTIVAL Great Musical Event Last Nigfht at the Academy of Music. - - The second concert of the May festival. In which the Raleigh Choral Society and the Raleigh Orchestra took part,'"wa8 given last night at the Aeademyf Music. The chorus grouped "'lujjJyramid effect at the back of the stage formed a pleasing background to:' the orchestra, accom panists and soloists in the front. The .opening number of Part 1 was the Jubel Overture by the orchestra, undeC; the dinection of Prof. Hage- dorn. Tkla famous concert work by Weber showed the remarkable skill and training tf the orchestra, not yet a year old. The violin parts were particularly effective. This was ..followed by the Halle lujah Chorus from Handel's Messiah, without which no choral concert Is complete. From the iirst wave of the conductor's baton until the last sustained;- majestic chord this master piece was one outburst of praise and enthusiasm, showing perfect har mony between the conductor, the chorus, .the orchestra and audience, which stood while il was being ren dered. Love Sounds the Alarm," a reci tative and aria, also hv Handel, was selection in which the beautiful tenor voice of Mr. Hamlin showed its wonderful "capabilities. His voice, from Its faintest whisper to its great crescendo, was the perfect serv ant of its master, lie was enthusi astically encored, ami sang witli an absolutely Inspired interpretation iho poem from "Pippa Passes," making one feel Indeed that VGod's in his heaven Alls right with Hie world." The great favorite of the evening was Madame Hissem De Moss, who sang a "Spring Song" by Ware. Her voice is a lyric soprano, of perfect quality ant control and with her most charming personality drew the hearts of the. audience to her feet. In this first ong of hers one could see thj fresh green of the grass and trees, the, Mrsting of buds into blos som and hqaf the twittering of birds, making one feel that low is life and life is lovij. She responded with that favorite . encore "The Sweetest Flower That Blows," and one felt when the list--perfect note had died away that at her parting, it would be the hearts Of her hearers, even as one that ate would take with her. The reridTtTof'of the Second Hun garlan Phanso41&; by Mr. Shonert was a wonderfuiiproduction of this, hardest of ftrf Jbiszt's rhapsodies. His technique and interpretation were satisfying to ' the severest critic. j J The Cho?nI Society-and Orchestra concluded ar-,with -a'waltz song, "MornmgJby.iBwpojst. -which was the incarnation ,f dawn, youth and joy. ; ' V ' ., After an intermission the Stabat Mater, the famous choral master piece by Rossini, was given by the chorus and orchestra, V The solo work of this difficult oratorio being done with wonderful effect by the quartet of artists, Madame De Moss, so prano, Miss Margaret KeyeB, con tralto, Mr. Georgo Hamlin, tenor, and Mr. William Harper," bass. The setting of the, beautiful Latin words is in absolute;, sympathy with the theme the sorrowful Mother standing near the cross on which her son is hanging. '.Perhaps the most beautiful parts of this most beauti ful whole were the tenor solo "Cujus Anlmam" and "The Cavatina,'! sung by Miss Keyeav the quartet unaccom panied by the artiBtd, a blending of perfect harmpny and 1 the' famous Inriamatutf,,bf. he' chorus with the soprai o obligate by Madame De Moss. ; t, The last: ( number, The Amen Chorus ,a fujgue of great difficulty hv the Choral fc'Ociety and the Orches tra showed the fine, training of the conductor, Mr." Wade Brown, and tho final grand ' Amen ' was av fitting climax to an evening replete with success. i '-.. v 1 FOUNTAINS J Are in full -operation at both our stores, and we are emphat ically ready to serve the entire populace frith tha : most deli xcious drinks. extant Our lee Cream ir simply without - an equal. j . - ,'. , , ' THE SICK'S ; !A-U 'phones except Interstate.
