5Representatives of the Lankow Method.
7MISS MARTHA HOFACKER'S success as Elsa in "Lohengrin" at Strassburg was recently chronicled. This last success was almost overwhelming, showing how well the young artist had understood, in the two years of her engagement, to become a favorite of a very discriminating public. Martha Hofacker will spend her vacation in Switzerland, and enter her new engagement for three years at the beautiful Court Theatre in Darmstadt in September next.
9Eladio Chao, well known in New York, has just been graduated from the Royal Academia St. Cecilia in Rome, Italy. His singing is making a furore, and he will settle in Rome at present and teach the Lankow method there.
11S. P. Veron, basso cantante, who has been so successful in Berlin on the concert stage as well as Andreas Schneider, the well known baritone, will begin his three year engagement at the Stadt Theatre in Mainz in September next as Landgrave in "Tannhäuser."
13Miss Edna Stern, the well known mezzo and contralto, has accepted the position in the Temple Israel in Harlem, 115th street. The Misses Bertha and Jane Shalek have both made decided hits in the "Mikado" as two of the "Three Little Maids" at the summer opera in Providence, R. I. All these singers received their stage training at the American School of Opera in New York.
15Sol Marcosson's Tour Ended.
17SOL MARCOSSON has just closed a brilliantly successful season, including concert tours from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico, ending last week in Kentucky, where he played the G minor Bruch Concerto with the Louisville Philharmonic Orchestra.
19Mr. Marcosson will soon close his studio in Cleveland and go to Chautauqua, N. Y., where he will resume for the fifth season the directorship of the violin department. During the summer Mr. Marcosson will given seven recitals with William H. Sherwood, the pianist, and deliver six lectures on the history of the violin and great violinists.

72EDDY IN CALIFORNIA.
74CLARENCE EDDY gave an organ recital early in the month at Calvary Presbyterian Church in San Francisco, and the accomplished performer scored his usual success with audience and critics. Some of his press notices include:
76Clarence Eddy, the eminent organist, gave a recital on the new organ at Calvary Presbyterian Church last night. Many musicians of the city attended and applauded Eddy for his magnificent execution and also for his perfect control of the organ. His playing of Hollins' "Concert Overture" was masterly, as was his execution in Thiele's "Theme, Variations and Finale." Saint-Saëns' exquisite and dainty composition, "The Swan," received fine treatment, and Wagner's "Pilgrims' Chorus," arranged by Eddy himself, captivated the audience, as did all others of his masterly performance.—San Francisco Call, June 3, 1903.
78The recital began with a Concert Overture in C minor, by the blind English composer, Alfred Hollins, who dedicated the work to the American organist. Two other selections dedicated to Mr. Eddy were played, the Toccata in F, by William Faulkes, and Alex. Guilmant's Fifth Sonata. All three compositions were highly interesting, but the last proved especially so, not only because of the nobility of its themes, but also as a splendid example of the organist's technic, which is characterized by great smoothness and sympathy of execution. The Sonata closed with a magnificent choral and fugue, in which the pedal obligato was particularly impressive. Among the other numbers none won more hearty applause than Mr. Eddy's own arrangements of "The Pilgrims' Chorus," from "Tannhäuser."—San Francisco Chronicle.
80Clarence Eddy, the well known organist of New York, gave a very interesting organ recital last evening at Calvary Presbyterian Church. The program consisted of music of the highest order, and the organist gave evidence in each number of his splendid technic and execution. The new organ in the church proved itself under this test to be an instrument of exceptionally good quality.—The Bulletin, San Francisco.
82Richard Burmeister Abroad.
84RICHARD BURMEISTER arrived in Dresden, Germany, which is to be his new home, on June 1, after spending three weeks in London. He was received and entertained by the musical world of the British capital, and while he gave recitals at private houses (among them at the Duchess of Portland's and Duchess of Manchester's), his first public appearance there will not take place before next winter. Mr. Burmeister, after attending the music festival in Basel from June 12 to 16, will spend the summer in Rathewalde, a charming spot in Saxonian Switzerland, an hour's ride from Dresden. His new duties at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Dresden will commence September 1.
