FRIDAY; MAY 27, 1921.
Matinee Music Club.
The Matinee Music Club held the
last meeting of the season Saturday
afternoon, with Miss Lola Harper at
the home of her aunt, Mrs. Cordie
Garth, ou Ury street. The club cal
endar of the year has been filled with
red-letter days, but none more en
couraging than the final meeting, for
- at this time the members of the club
"were able to make brief recapitula
tion of the year's activity with a sat
isfying degree of pride over results
attained. They thought of the im
prcssive research work that has been
made; of the attention given 'to
America's music' and to her inn
sician3, including the Colonists, the
Innovators, and the Academics; of
the branching out into musical cir
cles of other nations Russia, Swe
den, Germany, France; the study of
the orchestra, of the oratorio, the
tmera. and other musical forms: also
of the delightful piano, voice and vi
olin execution in nrnaram discourse
andwith such a review, each membei
felt the Joy of glorious achievement
the legitimate after-effect of work
well done.
The lesson study of the afternoon
led by Miss Vivian Woodrow, was a
subject very dear to the hearts of all
present: "Edward MacDowell, the
Man and His Work." Born an Amer
lean, his directness of expression, his
outlook upon life, all American, of
him may it be said that he came
nearer being the founder of a nation
' al BChool than has any native com
poser coming after. A man of com
pelling personality, a weaver of
dreams, and by way of further de
scription, a poet, composer, and myS'
tic in one.
To the lover of natilre MacDowell
. makes a sympathetic appeal. He
paints in wonderful tone the rare
beauty of- the "Water Lily," and
"Wild Rose," while in his musical
realization of Tennyson's "The Ea
gle," the general exaltation and ma
Jestic splendor of the king bird of the
forest is felt. May the spirit of Mac
Dewell brood over the sons and
daughters of America and be an in
visible agent in drawing them closer
to the shrine of musical art.
