35The Klingensfeld Conservatory. one of two readings
36The Klingenberg Conservatory. one of two readings
38THE two closing concerts given by the Klingensfeld Conservatory of Music and School of Elocution, 108 Hancock street, Brooklyn, on the evenings of June 25 and 29 were thoroughly appreciated and showed throughout remarkable progress by all pupils. The feature of these concerts were the ensemble numbers. Special mention must be made of the effort put forth by Mrs. Klingensfeld to introduce and arouse a love for ensemble piano playing. The piano quartets arranged from Rubinstein's Melody in F and Spindler's "Husarenritt" ("Charge of the Hussars") were well received and well rendered. The compositions written for two pianos—one at each concert—by Edwin Schultz were little gems and made an excellent impression. This composer is little known, but he is indeed an acquisition to the musical world. His works are scholarly, also musical and melodious. one of two readings

41The conservatory has made a name for itself. Its aims are high and in all of its branches has succeeded in winning the approval of the parents with young children who live in the neighborhood.
43Mention should be made of several pupils who played with remarkable skill. Some of these include Misses D. Sanborn and J. Little and Masters D. Smith and E. Christensen in the violin department, and the Misses Moore, Smith, Ball, Dietzman, Christensen and Marshall. The conservatory closes for the season, but pupils may continue special lessons during the summer months.
45The fall term begins September 15. Prospectuses and circulars may be had on application.
47Jessie Shay at Troy.
49MISS JESSIE SHAY scored a big success at the convention of the New York State Music Teachers' Association, held in Troy two weeks ago. Criticisms of her playing follow:
51Miss Jessie Shay gave two groups of piano solos, all of which gave her ample opportunity to display her remarkable command of the keyboard. She displayed throughout her performances intelligence and fine feeling for the larger aspects of the compositions she played, and is concerned as much for their spirit as their letter. The beauty and fullness of tone and her nice sense of dynamic gradation is especially noteworthy. Her technic was ample to compass the difficulties offered by Liszt's ornate piano style, which is an indication that she is remarkably developed.—Troy Record.
53Jessie Shay, dainty as ever and looking not more than fifteen, although many Trojans remember her as p'aying almost that number of years, was the last and the best of the pianists to play. Her fingers must be a priceless treasure, rippling runs, pearly trills, thunderous chords and other contrasts are hers to command, and one sits and wonders how such a little lady has acquired all her knowledge. She handled the piano with the most consummate skill, rendering the most difficult numbers with the greatest intelligence and skill.—Troy Northern Budget.
55Miss Jessie Shay, of New York, a gifted and accomplished pianist who has many friends in this city, was the star. Miss Shay has broadened in style since last heard in Troy, and displayed a remarkably facile and smooth technic.—Troy Press.
