44Fanciulli.
46THE Washington Capital of last week published the following:
47"Our old friend Professor Fanciulli, formerly leader of the Marine Band, has been in town, and the town knows it. Fanciulli, perhaps, was one of the most popular musicians we ever had. He did really wonderful things for the Marine Band, and despite his aggressive character made friends of the men under him. The class of music given under his direction of the band was of a high order, and for that reason Professor Fanciulli was not as popular with the masses as his intrinsic merit warranted. He will be in the city but long enough to make an arrangement with the committee having charge of the music for the G. A. R. encampment."
49Leopold Winkler's Busy Summer.
51LEOPOLD WINKLER is one of the local pianists who has had a busy and prosperous summer at home. Mr. Winkler has played at several places near the city and at the concerts in the Circle Auditorium. That his performances had been regarded as musical events may be understood from reading the following extracts:
53Last week the feature of the symphony night was clearly, and in spite of Dr. Dvorak's "New World" symphony, Leopold Winkler's performance of Beethoven's G major concerto. Dohnyani gave a memorable performance of the work, which is much less known than the "Emperor." But Mr. Winkler's performance was especially noteworthy for the success with which the pianist brought out the essentially intimate character of the composition, which, in spite of its scoring for piano and orchestra, is really, as he made it appear, a piece of chamber music meant to please and to be appreciated by the select few. The completeness with which the pianist put his technical equipment in subordination to his sense of the meaning of the composition, and renounced chances for the display of virtuosity, was noteworthy and highly artistic.—New York Times, Sunday, August 17, 1902.
55Among the best of the local pianists is Leopold Winkler, who is this year and was last a favorite soloist at the Kaltenborn concerts. Mr. Winkler's specialty, so far as a pianist has a specialty, is Liszt, and he plays the works of this composer admirably.—Commercial Advertiser, New York, Saturday, August 2, 1902.
57The Commercial Advertiser of August 2 also published an excellent portrait of Mr. Winkler. At the Kaltenborn concert tomorrow evening (Thursday) Winkler will play Schubert's "Wanderer Fantasie."
59An American Student in Paris.
61E. M. BOWMAN is at the Hotel St. Petersbourg, in Paris, with Mrs. Bowman and Miss Bessie Bowman, and writes that he is entirely satisfied with the progress that his daughter has made in her studies. As showing that she has worked assiduously under Madame Marchesi and Jacques Bouhy, Mr. Bowman mentions that Miss Bowman has thoroughly learned, besides committing a good part of them to memory, one or two, and in some cases more, songs in French, Italian or German by Carissimi, Pergolesi, Paisiello, Handel, Schubert, Brahms, Berlioz, Saint-Saëns, Bizet, Massenet, Widor, Lalo and Augusta Holmès. This month, Miss Bowman, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Bowman, will go to Wales for a brief rest, and then to London.
63Oratorio and concert songs will be the field of Miss Bowman's effort. This has always been her aim, and to it her voice and talents are adapted.
65RECITALS BY ERSKINE PORTER.
67ERSKINE PORTER, the boy soprano, gave two very successful recitals during this past week, one at Watch Hill House, Watch Hill, R. I., on the 4th, and the other at the Imperial, Narragansett Pier, on the 6th. His numbers were received with tremendous enthusiasm by the large and fashionable audiences, which thronged the ballrooms and verandas. Many of those present expressed great wonder at the boy's clear, ringing voice, finished style, absolutely correct time and memory, and many were the congratulations which were showered upon the little artist when he stepped down from the platform.

96Probably the best and largest attended entertainments of all the entertainers who have been at the Hill this summer was Erskine Porter, the boy soprano, of New York. Master Porter is only nine years of age, and has a remarkably sweet and clear voice. He commenced regular study when he was but seven years of age, and in his eighth year was soloist of St. Mary's Episcopal Church, in Brooklyn. Master Porter's program consisted of sixteen songs, and at the end seemed to sing as strongly as at the first. His rendering of "The Last Rose of Summer," "Who'll Buy My Lavender?" and "Home, Sweet Home," were particularly pleasing to the audience who crowded the ballroom and verandas. He is to sing at the Imperial Hotel at Narragansett Pier on Wednesday.—The Westerly Daily Sun, Tuesday, August 5.
98At the Imperial last night Erskine Porter, the nine year old boy soprano, appeared and gave a recital of song before a fashionable assembly. He has a rich, clear soprano voice, and his singing gave much pleasure to those present. Master Porter has been soloist at St. Mary's Church, Brooklyn, N. Y., and his repertory consists of over one hundred sacred and secular songs. His program included "You and I," by Lehmann; "Summer," Chaminade; "A May Morning," Denza; "Japanese Lullaby," Neil, and "The Slumber Boat," by Gaynor, all of which were charmingly rendered.—The Daily Times, Narragansett Pier, August 7.
100WEBER'S BAND.—Reports from Cincinnati, Ohio, speak of the big success attending the tour of John C. Weber's band. Louisville, Indianapolis and Cincinnati papers speak highly of the work of the organization.
