60ARTISTS EVERYWHERE
61(Continued from page 16)
62a stranger, but left having many friends, due to his pleasing personality and his artistic singing." Mr. Valeriano was assisted at the piano by Florence Rich, director of the local music department, who in association with Horace Hoover and Grace Gertrude Williamson are responsible for the attractions that are being brought every year by the Birmingham School.
64Nevada Van der Veer will sing the solo contralto part in Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, to be given under Verbruggen, by the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra, in St. Paul, Minn., January 20, and in Minneapolis the next day.
66Reinald Werrenrath left for the Pacific Coast New Year's Day and the first concert of his coast tour was on January 6 at San Diego. Mr. Werrenrath also will be heard in Los Angeles, San Jose, Oakland, San Francisco, Sacramento, Salem, Portland, Bellingham and Spokane. He is to sing a special return engagement in Seattle at the Plymouth Church by request and also will give a radio concert in Los Angeles under the auspices of Atwater Kent. Mr. Werrenrath will spend four weeks on the Coast, returning to the Mid-West early in February.
68Martha D. Willis, formerly well known in New York as pedagogue and lecturer, this season is active in the musical circles of Houston and Waco, Texas, teaching half of the week in each city. She is giving courses in music appreciation in both places, and this, together with piano lessons and the coaching of teachers, keeps her very busy.
70MUSICAL COURIER
72Josef Lhevinne to Conduct Master Class at American Conservatory
73The announcement that Josef Lhevinne, world renowned piano virtuoso, will hold a master class in Chicago this summer should prove of extreme interest to pianists throughout the country. This will mark Mr. Lhevinne's fifth season at the American Conservatory, and judging from past experience, should prove another triumph. Artist students, the younger professionals and teachers from all parts of the country, also Canada, Mexico, South America, are quick to realize that this is an opportunity to study with one of the leading pianists of the day. Already quite a number of advance registrations have been made. In addition to private instruction, Mr. Lhevinne will conduct four Repertory Teacher's Classes weekly, in which he will offer instructive criticism to the artist-students performing, and also give interesting information regarding his methods.
75Mr. Lhevinne has consented to give a scholarship consisting of two private lessons weekly to the most talented student. This will be decided by competition which will take place in June. The Conservatory will offer a scholarship of two class lessons per week.
77Yeatman Griffith Assistant Teacher in Philadelphia
78Owing to numerous requests from students in Philadelphia and vicinity for a Yeatman Griffith teacher of voice, this Master has sent Euphemia Blunt, who has been assistant teacher in the New York studios of Yeatman Griffith for the past eight years to Philadelphia one day every week. Miss Blunt has opened her studio next to the Presser Building on Chestnut Street. She will teach as usual in the Yeatman Griffith Studios in New York during the week and on Saturdays in Philadelphia.
80TALENTED VIOLIN PUPILS
81You May Have Personal Violin Instruction by Carl Flesch and Other World-Renowned Artists

94JOSEF LHEVINNE
96Critics Always Agree on JEANNE LAVAL Contralto
97Witness the unanimity of the three Detroit newspapers on her Book-Cadillac concert:
99News:
100With a host of significant arts of breath and coloring, and with a thoroughly splendid control of all her powers, she sang her songs as well as they could be sung. It was a demonstration of vocal technique no less than of intelligent interpretation. The audience welcomed her warmly and approved her with more discrimination than one usually discovers in any concert hall.
102Times:
103The lovely contralto voice of beautiful Jeanne Laval, lifted in one of the best chosen programs of this or any season, delighted her audience. She possesses that rare and happy combination of voice and intelligence. She compassed a range of style from 16th century Italian arias to Granville Bantock, and in each case the result was an artistic unit whole and complete.
105Free Press:
106A singer of individual style and personality, her voice is full and rich, and she uses it with skilful and convincing artistry. It is flexible and responsive to her every wish, whether called upon to convey intense feeling or to portray those lighter imaginative touches demanded in such songs as Carpenter's setting of Tagore's "I Bring You Colored Toys." Her program was far removed from the conventional offering, presenting a wide variety of moods and styles, with diction and enunciation particularly commendable.
