54WALTER H. ROBINSON, Tenor.
56Walter H. Robinson, recently convalescent after a long siege of typhoid fever, finds himself in better voice than ever, and among other places sang for the annual breakfast of the Eclectic Club, at Delmonico's, February 12. His songs were "Moon of My Delight," by Lehmann; Chadwick's Nocturne, and Clay's "Songs of Araby." In all these his resonant voice, under admirable control, and pleasant appearance, served to draw admiration, and the several hundred ladies expressed this in no uncertain manner. He was afterward the guest of the club at the breakfast.
58The other singer of the morning was Mrs. Carrie Martin Cowtan, a member of the club, who has a sweet and expressive voice, singing with beautiful taste Hawley's "Daisies" and Woodman's "Violets." Were this woman to enter the professional field she would take high rank. Mr. Riesberg accompanied for the singers.
60Platon Brounoff Busy.
62Platon Brounoff's activities are incessant, as all who know the vigorous Russo-American are aware. His pupil, the tenor Levin, sang at the Nineteenth Century Literary Circle, conducted by Professor Thomas, of Columbia University, an aria from a Tschaikowsky opera. Professor Thomas expressed himself as very much interested in Brounoff's writings. The latter played a piano solo at the same affair. March 7 he gives a lecture recital on "Modern Composers" at the Thomas Paine Literary Society meeting. His downtown and uptown piano and vocal pupils are more numerous than ever this year.
