WILME .TTE LIFE July 13, 1928 . Official Publication Report of the Condition of SKOKIE CLUB OFFERS . HAVEN TO MUSICIANS Mrs. Dwight C. Orcutt Directs First of Summer Afternoon Concerts By Rutheda L Pretzel The Skokie Country club proved a haven indeed Sunday afternoon, July 8 when the fint of the . summer's · afternoon musicales was inaugurated under the direction of Mrs. Dwight C. Orcutt. Here were relief from ~eat and balm for the ear wearied of Ja~z and modernity in music. Mrs. Gtlbert Smith, soprano, and Mrs: Dennis Gent contralto, transported us to the fresh cheeriness of the mu.sic of the fourteenth to seventeenth centuries in England, singing madrigals and folk song-s with the most delig~t.ful air of artlessness anq spontanetty. The soloists were in early English costume, as wa.s Miss Hadassah M~ Giffen who offered thetll such splend1d support at the piano. Thomas Morley, one of the best known of the English madrigal composers, ,;ays of the music for . the madrigal~. "You must in your Mustcke be wavering like the wind, sometime wanton sometime drooping, sometime grave ~nd s-taide, otherwhile effiminat, you may maintaine points and revert them, me tri,olae~_; (triplets) and shew the uttermost of your varietie, and the more varietie you shew the better shall you Q}ease." The songs Mrs. Smith and Mrs . Gent sang held these quick changes of moods, and both artists caught them, slighting not even the smallest turn. Of their duets, Handel's "Beauty Latelv" and "Sweet Kate" were perhaps ·the b~st of the more serious ones. Both Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Gent kept the sense of two melodies intet:twiningand moving in counterpoint, blendin~ the song- yet keeping the two voices outstanding. "The M.o narch's Daugh~ ter" told the sad, sad tale .of a princess who was now "persecuted, poo:-. and old." while "Six Little Mice" tickled the audience with the rhyme of the mice that were "s_ninning, making clothes for gentlemen ." As mentioned before. the artists gave each the ri~rht touch of humor and seriousness.- There were other duets no less popular, which won enthusiastic applause, the closing one, "Mistress M arv Marv." demandinP" a repetition. In- ~olo w'ork Mrs. SmTth interpreted the moods of "Lovelv Celia." "The.re'.:; Not a Swain on the Plain," · and "I Know Where I'm Going," and others in a most pleasing- manner, and with a voice that easily lent it§etf to all shadings. Mrs. Gent's voice showed I richness and co.lor in her solos. and ;;he "·as especially charming- in "Turn Ye to Me," and "Who'tt Buy Mv Lavender?" It was an afternoon well spent. Miss Helen Hayes, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Clark L. Hayes of 911 Lake avenue, whq was graduated this June from the Northwestern universitv school of music, sailed July 9, to spend several months in travel in Europe.
