THE SNOW CONCERT
One of the greatest successes in a
musical line, given in Skagsvay for ?
long time, was the Snow concert of
Wednesday evening, at E ks hall.
Miss Snow h is a voice of rare tlexi
btllty auJ sweetness and her high uotrs
?he reaches * . h the utmost ease mxl
descends to the lower ones most grace
fully M.e hapmlv lacks that facia:
contort iot. which mauy singers seem t<>
think necessary to show tneir met ho. 1 j
of training.
The young lady was at ease before I
the audience and responded with charm- i
Ing grace to related encores which
were little song gems.
The rendition oo th? vioiincello, of
Mr. Bridge's first number was superb,
but when he responded to repeated ap- ;
plause with Sohumanu's ever new, ever
beautiful Trauiuerei, he held his hear
e-s spellbound.
Mi?> Nellie Maxon presided at the pi I
ano and her dainty touch fia" on inUru
n ent was sufficient to make the couceit
one to be remembered by music lovers.
Toe affair was a great success an :
while fairly well attended, should have ?
called out a much larger audience as
Miss Snow has been most generous in
responding to all requests to ?ing and
her time has been mo>t ungrudging'y
given to every demand.
