Interesting Piano Recital Given in
Auditorium Last Frid ay '
Evening.
The piano recital given last Friday
night in the auditorium was one of
the biggest numbers on our Musical
Artists' Course. All that has been
said concerning Madame Ney has not
been said falsely. According to ancient tales there are certain persons
whose birth into the world is attended
by good fairies, each of whom gives
one gracious gift to the child. Elly
Ney seems to have been one of these
fortunat e mortals for her career has
been filled with incidents so spectacular and so nattering as to seem t*be
result of magic.
During the past ten months this
remarkable pianist has had a most
triumphal march over the continent.
She was acclaimed like a Roman Emperor by the people of the seventyone cities in which she played. Thirty
German cities heaped honor upon her..
Demonstra t i ons in t he st ree t s of
Cologn e by the enthusiastic mob, natiq nal decorations in Norway, re-engagements for the greatest festivals
of the coming' year—all these testify
to Mme. Ney 's genius and her favor
in the sight of the gods and the people.
The program which sh e gave last
Friday night follows—all by "Ch apin ":
