FRIDAY, JULY 2T. 1900. lire ASntTILLE DAILY CITIZEN". ARTISTIC TRIUHffl IN FOURTH CONCERT Artists of the Summer School at the Grand. THE SONQ CYCLE '"IK A PERSIAN GARDEN" MME. PARCELLO'S FIRST APPEARANCE. The fourth concert of the series of fered by the Asheville Summer School and Conservatory was given last even ing at the Grand to a very large and select audience. The opening number for the evening was a trio for piano, violin and 'cello .v Dvorak, rendered by Ferdinand Punkley, Henri mrn ana Bruno stein del. With three such artists it is need less to say the rendition was masterly. A short, descriptive talk by Alfred S. Barnard, esq., prepared the audience for the song cycle "If a Persian Gar den " which occupied a large part of the program. Mr. Barnard's style 1 deserving of most favorable notice from a literary standpoint, and his good vole and personal magnetism brought him at once in touch with his, hearers and enabled him in a few words to emrhasiie the leading thought and spirit In the great poem The Rubiayat of Omar Khayyam from which the words for-the celebrated- musical com position were adapted. The artists who Vtook the different roles need no introduction, all of them except Mme. Parcello having previously appeared in Asheville, and her reputa tion, especially in this particular role, has preceded her. From first to last the rendition was a delight. In the several quartets the shading and inter pretation was most artistic, the voices harmonising well and the peculiar fit ness of the music to the words in every case being preserved by style and shad ing. Dr. Jackson's tenor role, while most exacting one, requiring lh eminent degree both lyric and dramatic quali ties, showed him forth as unquestipn ably the great singer he has already been pronounced. His tender pathos, succeeded by dramatic power, together with an almost perfect enunciation and good style, were all emphasized throughout his several solos. The quality of Mme. Pareello's voice Is peculiarly adapted to the contralto parts. It was heard to best advantage In the solo, "I sometimes think that never blows so red the rose" Like the other artists, she so acquitted herself as to leave no doubt of the fact that her wlue reputation in musical circles Is deserved, the music of this one com position being, because of its varied character, a fair test of a performer's ability. She has a charming womanly presence and expressive face which in great degree add to her success. i'twmas J. Penned, in the baritone parts, achieved also deserved success, meeting the varied demands of his dlfterent solos with ease. While all of his work was good, his last solo, "As then the tulip for her morning sup." which elicited an enthusiastic response from his hearers. The climax of the dramatic situation of the whole- composition is reached in the soprano solo, "I sent my soul inrougn me invisiuie. xne selection 01 Allss Knight for this exceedingly ex acting part was most happy. She has an already established reputation here as a singer, having rare drumaic and sympathetic qualities which carry her hearers w ith her through the depths of emotion which she herself so intensely feels. There was a wave of enthusiasm must evident through the audience at the close of this great dramatic solo. The lyric quality of her voice was em phasized in the 'solo "Each morn a thousand roses bring you say." Special note should be made of the duet tor tenor and soprano, "A book of verses underneath the boughs." The two voices have the same sweet, symp- atnetic quality, ana mis nuuiuer wh rendered most beautifully. The delightful program included the appearance of Bruno Stetndel In a group of three solos for 'cello, all of which were enthusiastically received. Where the artist is so unquestionably a master It Is needless to go Into de tail. His selections were among those which endeared him to Asheville two years ago. The piaylng of Henri Ern In the dif ficult solo, ' Kusslan Airs," served ably to sustain the verdict already rendered that he is a master of his instrument. To him technical difficulties seem un known, w hile his tone has botti breadth and sweetness. With the singing of "The Lost Chord" by Dr. Jackson the program closed.

The country he lives In is a Hat one, and he never saw an elevation of any kind.
