1KANSAS CITY.
3Kansas City Mo., November 24, 1905.
5ALICE NIELSEN'S concert to be given at Convention Hall on December 4 is now an interesting topic of conversation among the local musicians, largely on account of the fact that Miss Nielsen is a Kansas City girl. The program is to be made up of grand opera excerpts, with scenery.
7Laura Reed, of this city, is to be married December 27 to Mr. Yeggi, of Chicago, who also has a ranch near Hutchinson, Kan. Up to the time her engagement was announced Miss Reed was a pupil of Mr. Gittelson, and prior to that she studied with Lichtenberg of New York.

19S. Rendina, pianist, of the Willis Wood Orchestra, which is under the direction of John Behr, has moved, and is now located at Tenth and Cherry streets.
21W. I. Early, of Kansas City, Kan., is doing some good work in the smaller cities and towns in the surrounding country in organizing choral clubs. He states that he finds it a field of work which has had little attention and that the musical people of the smaller places are anxious for instruction.
23Hans Peterson will play a violin solo next Sunday at the Willis Wood, at the services of the Church of this World. Cleo Dix, soprano, also sings at the same services.
25All the churches of this city are now busy preparing for their Christmas music, and something exceptionally fine is expected from a number of them, as their array of talent is quite imposing.
27Alfred Hubach will give his next organ recital on December 3 at the English Lutheran Church. The program will include cantilene, by Wolstenholme, and suite for organ, by Rogers. The recitals are proving very popular.
29Mrs. Malgen Hecker is this week enjoying a visit from her son, who is with the Woodward & Burgess Amusement Company in Omaha.

43James B. Stevens, baritone, who has appeared in concert in Kansas City and neighboring cities, will hereafter make this city his headquarters. Mr. Stevens has studied with Myron W. Whitney, in Boston, and with Vannuccini in Italy. He will devote part of his time to classes in neighboring cities.
45E. Russell Sanborn, the gifted organist of the Second Church of Christ, Scientist, and Grace Church, has left this city for a permanent residence in Boston.

62Faculty Recital at New York Institute.
64ARTHUR BERGH, the violinist, gave the fourth of the series of faculty recitals in the New York Institute of Music last Friday evening. The program was representative of German-Scandinavian composers and included Beethoven's sonata, op. 24; "Air on G String" and gavotte, by Bach; Sinding's "Romance," op. 51, No. 2, and intermezzo, op. 51, No. 3.
66Mr. Bergh, who is a Norwegian by descent, interpreted the Grieg and Sinding numbers with a rare insight into their little intricacies and effects, but seemed to be equally adept in his understanding of the meanings of the Bach and Beethoven masterpieces.
68He plays with unusual attention to breadth of tone and his technic is developed to an extent that promises a brilliant future for him as a soloist. The piano parts were artistically done by Carl Bruchhausen, whose work in the Sinding selections was especially sympathetic.
70Two Active Mehan Pupils.
72JOHN BARNES WELLS, the tenor, and pupil of John Dennis Mehan, will sing in Wilkesbarre, Pa., in public recital this evening. Mr. Wells won much praise for his singing of "Entreat Me Not to Leave Thee," by Gounod, at the McCoy wedding in East Orange last Wednesday.
74Another Mehan pupil who is making a good impression in concert is Charlotte Talcott, soprano, from Tecumseh, Neb. She sang for the Drawing Room Club at the Waldorf-Astoria last Saturday afternoon and was encored repeatedly for her singing of German songs by Von Fielitz and Tschaikowsky, as well as two French and English numbers.
