100From the H. W. Greene Studios.
102ONE of the rising young tenors of the city is Horatio Rench, whose picture recently appeared in the New York Herald. He left Washington a year ago, where he was holding church and business engagements, to take the course at the H. W. Greene Summer School of Music in Brookfield Center, Conn. His progress was marked, and he excited much favorable comment by his appearance in concerts given by the school in that part of the State. At the close of the summer session he resigned his Washington engagements, and followed Mr. Greene to New York, where he has since been studying. His success is already assured. In addition to his appointment as tenor of the West End Presbyterian Church he is being sought for to fill numerous concert engagements.
104Last week he scored a success at Trenton in the "Daughter of Jairus," and at a recent reception at the Manuscript Society he was greatly applauded for his intelligent rendering of a group of new songs by Addison F. Andrews. His voice is of a rare lyric quality, and he uses it with excellent taste and control.
106A Reply to Amy Fay.
108EAST ORANGE, N. J., June 18, 1903.
109To The Musical Courier:
110MY FAY'S letter in this week's edition of THE MUSICAL COURIER leads me to express the opinion that women will gain very little by isolating themselves from men in musical and club work. If men and women meet on an equal artistic level it will be greatly to the advantage of the latter, inasmuch as their ambition will be stimulated and the standard of their musical efforts elevated. My own personal experience compels me to acknowledge that whenever women accomplish anything really creditable men are not backward in displaying their appreciation, an argument which is amply demonstrated by the numbers of male students who patronize competent women teachers, many of whom, by the way, are members of the Women's Philharmonic Society, of which Miss Fay is president.
111CLARA A. KORN.
113Harding M. Kennedy.
115HARDING M. KENNEDY, of San Francisco, who has been in Europe four or five years studying the violin with César Thomson, Carl Halir and Geloso, arrived in New York last week. He will conduct a violin school in San Francisco.
117Obituary.
119Malvine Schnorr von Carolsfeld.
121ME. MALVINE SCHNORR VON CAROLS-FELD, who died in Germany last month, was the widow of Ludwig Schnorr von Carolsfeld, a dramatic tenor, who died in Dresden June 21, 1865. The tenor, who was a great favorite and friend of Wagner, created the role of Tristan at Munich June 10, 1865, his wife singing the part of Isolde. Herr Schnorr von Carolsfeld caught cold at the performance and his death eleven days later was regarded as a calamity in Germany, for he was a great interpreter of Wagnerian roles. His sudden death proved such a shock to the young widow that she retired from the stage. Mme. Schnorr von Carolsfeld dedicated her life to assisting young singers. She died at Carlsruhe May 23, surviving her husband thirty-eight years. Mme. Schnorr von Carolsfeld, whose maiden name was Garrigues, was a second cousin of Mme. Alice Garrigue Mott, the well known New York vocal teacher.
123James Burton Pond.
125Major James Burton Pond, the lecturer and musical manager, died at his home in Jersey City, Sunday afternoon, from shock caused by the amputation of his right leg Wednesday of last week. Major Pond showed signs of illness in April, when an ulcer appeared on the sole of his right foot. The trouble baffled the physicians, for under treatment gangrene developed and the surgeons deemed amputation necessary to save the life of the patient. But the Major had a weak heart and could not survive the operation. Major Pond was born at Cuba, Alleghany County, N. Y., June 11, 1838. He went West in boyhood and started life as a printer's apprentice, and with his parents lived through the hard struggles of all pioneers in the new States. When the Civil War broke out Major Pond went to the front, and the title which he carried through life was the reward of bravery. Clara Louise Kellogg was the most distinguished musical celebrity ever managed by Pond.
127Major Pond is survived by a widow and one son, also a daughter by the first wife. Funeral services were held last night, Tuesday, and the interment occurred at Woodlawn Cemetery today.
129Bessie Cary.
131Miss Bessie Cary, singing teacher in Knox Conservatory of Music in Galesburg, Ill., died Friday, June 5, after an operation for tumor of the brain. The loss of this excellent teacher takes from the school and from the State of Illinois one of its foremost voice teachers.
