345Fine Tribute For Gunster
346Reviewing the recent recital of Frederick Gunster, tenor, at Elon College, the critic of the Greensboro (N. C.) Daily News pays high tribute to the voice and artistry of the popular tenor. "To lovers of tone, for tone's sake, his voice revealed such sweetness, purity and warmth, as to merit the envied reputation of 'a golden voice.' These delighting in technic marvelled at the perfect control of a voice of broad range, the masterly skill and ease throughout the varied difficult demands of his selections. To the most discriminating critic there was evidence of intelligent interpretation because of the most essential quality—that of marked personality." Commenting upon Mr. Gunster's final group, the reviewer says: "From the moment he appeared in the light trousers, long tailed coat, and high silk hat,—a perfect makeup—he entirely lost himself, and became the characters his great dramatic powers revealed so vividly. In the swinging rhythm and the quaint, humorous or pathetic sentiment, his exquisite voice revealed new beauties, and his acting and artistry were wonderfully appealing."
348Guy Maier Resigns from Ann Arbor
349Guy Maier, pianist, has resigned from the faculty of the Ann Arbor University School of Music to take effect in June. Mr. Maier is sailing shortly for Europe, where he and Lee Pattison will give two-piano recitals in Holland, Germany and France. Maier and Pattison will offer a number of new works on their programs next season. Among these will be included the Liszt Don Juan Fantasie, originally written for two pianos; a new set of Brahms' Love Waltzes, arranged by Maier; two arrangements by Van Katwijk of Kreisler's Liebesfreud and Beethoven's Dance of the Dervishes; a rhythmic Dance by Goossens, especially written for the two pianists; Maier's arrangement of Chopin's Butterfly and Black Key Etudes, played simultaneously on two pianos; Mozart's Fantasy for two pianos in F minor, and Daniel Gregory Mason's Fugue for two pianos.
351Grainger Program in Saskatoon
352An all-Grainger program was recently given by the members of the Musical Art Club of Saskatoon, Canada. Reuben Lowe began with a biographical sketch of Percy Aldridge Grainger, pianist and composer. The musical program followed, beginning with a piano composition for six hands, Green Bushes, played by Ole Hatlen, Ralph Parkinson and Reuben Lowe. Charles Hurling then sang three songs, one with string accompaniment. A violin solo, a piano solo (from In a Nutshell Suite), a piano quartet and a string quartet followed, and Lyell Gustin, president of the club, and Reginald Bedford closed with a Children's March for two pianos.
354Mr. Gustin writes in a letter: "The club members have had such pleasure in preparing the material for Wednesday's meeting that they are already looking forward to another Grainger program at some later date."
356Purdon Robinson Studio Recital
357Purdon Robinson gave the second of a series of musicales at his West Seventy-fifth Street studio on March 12. Among Mr. Robinson's pupils who sang were Helen Gleason, soprano of the San Carlo Opera Company; Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Wilbur, soloists of the First Methodist Church, Mamaroneck; Gladys Schermerhorn Jones, and Sherman Small, baritone soloist of the Lewis Ave. Congregationalist Church, Brooklyn. Mr. Robinson sang several songs, including some of his own composition. Porter Steele, pianist and composer, was the guest artist and played a number of his own compositions which he will repeat at his Brooklyn recital in April.
