I MOST REMARKABLE CONCERT I Last Sunday evening at the Hotel | Cape May byTheodor Gordohn and his J orchestra of New York city. It is wonderful what such orchestra of a few can produce .Thus the value of tone and the perfection of eneemble is inex- | preeslble. It is divine to whieh the just I preparation of every member doing their ! performance although Mr. Theodor Gordohn, who is always the master in his way, controlling the entire ensemble to own desire — not forgetting that each member of Mr. Gcnjohn's orchestra i* no doubt an artist of high ability. The overture "Freischut*," was rendered < with full Are at various tempos and at : 'the same time with moeh dignity. Mr. j Frederick Stanger, baritone, sung "My- ; j self when Young," Lisa Lehxiann ; from ' I a "Persian Garden," and "Sunset Back." with fine intonations and well phrased - His high registers were very good. Mr. J Kraushaar played La Favorite de . Yienne for flute by Perschals was splen- ' did in technique and in phrasing, full of ! | tones. His playing always ap- , peals to the audience. The scenes from , Pagliacci by LeonCavallo for orchestra . wonderful, and one nearly could be- , that it was at the Metropolitan . house by closing the eyes. It is one of the finest orchestras in this ; country. Mr. Sieman the pianist of the , orchestra was at his best, not alone in but through the entire pro- ■ Mr. Sieman had full control over , instrument. ( Mr. Stanger again delighted his audwith the Gypsy Trail, by Golia- , and Rolling doown to Rio, by Ger- ( Mr. Joseph Kanews was thoroughly ap- | preciated with his beautiful numbers for ( the cello "wie einst in schonerin Togen, and Scherzo by Goens. His tone so round and very mellow and so nobly played. Mr. Gordohn took hia audience by storm with Souvenir, by Drdla for violin. He is master of that - instrument and it is needless to 1 mucli about his poetical playing. ' He is the. greatest artist and conductor ' that has ever been here in Cape May, 1 and we still -hope to^hare.him with us many years to come. Mr. Gordohn ass recalled several times ' which he responded with encore and I his andience tranquil. Mr. John P. ' the manager of the Hotel Cape 1 seems very proud of Theodor Gor- ' dohn and bis orchestra. Mr. Gordohn ia the most gifted musician in this country of possessing such wonderful control in his playing and over his members. ' March Turque by Beethoven was ren- ' in r very pleasing and tranquil It is the greatest pleasure to 1 look forward for such artistic concert. 1 owe all this pleasure to Mr. Doyle having here with us Theodor ' Gordohn. • | THE CAPE MAY SUMMER SCHOOL ] Stokes did not Arrive Sat- ; urday — Exhibit of Work to-day Open < To Visitors.
