Club Rotes
Despite the inclement weather there
was a large attendance at the Musi
cians club Monday afternoon when a
well arranged program was given
under the direction of Mrs. H. C.
Locket t, in appreciation of Mrs.
Henry D. Ross, a member of the club
has written a special article for the
Republican:
"The composers selected for the af
ternoon were Handel and Schumann,
a felicitous combination for beauty
and strength. All Handel's piano
music was written for the harpso
chord, and much of it was in the
form of Suites or lessons as they
were called in England. They are
pedagogic and thematic in content,
patterned for the most part after
the style of Bach, with whom he
does not compare as a composer of
instrumental music. His fame rests
on his incomparable work in the Ora
toria forms. To mike his piano
works interesting demands daintiness .
and grace of touch, and much art- j
istic skill. It is pleasant to relate,
that all these requirements were met
in the performer of the instrumental
numbers from Handel's works last)
Monday afternoon. Handel hart tne
knack of writing well and gratefully
for the voice, which many critics at
tribute to his Italian training. His
melodies are always flowing and
graceful, and abound in simple ex
pressiveness. Schumann has well been called the
great Romanticist of the musical
world, but tile term must be inter
preted very broadly, for he is no
sentimentalist. His works are noble
and lofty, abounding in great intrica
cies of harmonic transitions, and
much catchy syncopation. They re
quire of the p'-rformcr physical
strensth, a finished technique and
breadth of vision. They are never
the work for the amateur, and we are
proud to record that the player of
Monday afternoon rose above that
class in her performance of the
exacting Whims." The beauty,
power and appealing quality of Schu
mann's songs must be always attri
buted to the long and trying court
ship he was forced to undergo, for
the best of them were written during
that stormy period in his life, in
spired by his passionate love for
Clara Wieck. They are the highest
form of the pure German Lieder and
require deep and long study for sat
isfactory present ment."
