Forthcoming Musical Treat.
Forthcoming Musical Treat. i The grand evening concert announced in our advertisement columns for Tuesday evening, March 10th, at the Judge's Hall, Trealaw, demands the attention and in- terest of all lovers of the best in music. Certainly the programme and the artistes promise the concert of the season. Miss Dilys Jones, of London, the great contralto, who scored so great a success last year in the Hen Wlad fv Nhadau concerts, will again charm with those exquisite group of Welsh folk-songs. Mr. Ivor Foster also will give of his best and maintain his high reputation. The special feature of this concert will be the sisters, Miss Laura Oliver Evans, the wonderful ib-year-oid viojin vntuoso, and Miss Constance Olwen Evans, solo pianist. Both have studied under the best masters in Germany, and their suc- cess in the cities of that country and in Denmark has been quite remarkable. The German Press ,tate: Tile young Laura Evans is a new star in the artistic world. The audience went into ecstacies, and six re-calls followed her Concerto. Miss Constance Evans also gave a distin- guished performance at the piano." Professor Eberhardt says that the talent of Laura Evans amounts to gtmius, and she will attain to the highest art. Her repertoire embraces all the big works given by front rank artistes, and, in the opinion of those capable of judging, she ranks with the best. It is up to our countrymen to give this young Welsh genius the support and en- couragement she so well deserves, and an overflowing house will be her reward.
