1SEATTLE MUSICAL NOTES.
2Seattle, Wash., August 28, 1906.
3The past six weeks have been musically quiet, the teachers have been summering in secluded mountain resorts, where the music of nature is only heard. The pupils? Well, they were willing "to forget it" for the time being.

85George Hamlin Abroad.
87George Hamlin, who sailed for Europe July 25, arrived at Genoa, August 8, after a pleasant passage. The vessel touched at Gibraltar and later a stay of two days was made at Naples. From this city Mr. Hamlin visited the ruins of Pompeii. He passed three days in Milan and three in Venice, devoting himself to sightseeing. He then visited Innsbruck and Munich, remaining in the latter place a week. Thence Mr. Hamlin proceeded to Bayreuth to hear "Tristan" and "Parsifal." From Bayreuth the singer will go to Strassburg and will spend a short time in the Black Forest. He is to return to Munich for the Wagner Festival, which will last until September 7. Before going to Berlin, in which city he will pass a considerable time, Mr. Hamlin will visit Nuremberg, Leipsic and Dresden. Previous to his appearance with the Hollandisch Trio, of Berlin, December 9, Mr. Hamlin will give recitals in Vienna, Munich and other cities.
89W. H. Sherwood on Vacation Trip.
91William H. Sherwood, the pianist, has closed his summer season at Chautauqua, N. Y., and during the past week has been visiting friends in New York. Prior to his return to Chicago next week Mr. and Mrs. Sherwood will be the guests of H. W. Edwards, at Morsemere, N. J. Mr. Sherwood is looking forward to a banner season with his music school, to which he devotes close attention, despite the fact that much of his time is taken up with his concert work and lecture recitals. In his piano department, Mr. Sherwood is assisted by some of his graduate pupils, among whom are Eleanor Sherwood, Georgia Kober, Bertha Stevens, Edith Bane, Francis Moore, Amanda McDonald and others.
93The vocal department will enlist the services of Arthur Beresford, the English basso; Ada Markham Sheffield, Lillian French Read and Shirley Gandell.
95THOMSON HAS MANY ENGAGEMENTS.
97Interest in the coming of César Thomson, the Belgian violinist, is keen. Thomson's tour will embrace about twenty-five appearances, both recital and orchestral engagements, and a tour of South America will follow his American visit.
99Van Hoose to Do Much Recital Work.
101Ellison van Hoose, whose forte heretofore has been principally oratorio and opera, is now to devote himself mainly to recital, a field for which he is splendidly qualified. Van Hoose is best known for his work with Madame Melba (two years in opera as leading tenor and two in concert) and through his oratorio successes, particularly his rendition of Gerontius, has brought him added fame.
103Mrs. Kurth-Sieber's Vacation.
105Mrs. F. Kurth-Sieber, the vocal teacher, has been the guest of her friend, Mrs. William N. Ackley, at Shandaken, Ulster County, N. Y.

107Genevieve Bisbee and Her Pupils.
109Genevieve Bisbee, the pianist and teacher, will reopen her studio about the middle of September. A number of Miss Bisbee's professional pupils will return for additional work with her this autumn and winter. Among them is Lauré E. Dale, of Alabama, who has taught the past year in the Alabama Industrial Institute. Miss Dale was among those who were invited to play at the State Music Teachers' Convention. Katherine Slemmons, another professional pupil of Miss Bisbee, will have charge of Miss Peck's Brooklyn class during the absence of Miss Peck in Europe.
