THE BELGIAN CONCERT.
Americus music lovers who neglect
ed to attend the concert given by the
Belgian Trio on Tuesday night last
missed a rare treat. Since the people
of this city are credited with elevated
tastes, as well as knowing a good
thing when they see it, it is strange
that there were so many who stayed
at home or went elsewhere for enter
tainment on that occasion. It has
been suggested that the price of ad
mission may have been too high.
Shucks! This recital compared very
favorably with any similar entertain
ment given anywhere at any time.
To a person whose soul responds
to music, there is something in the
tones of the ’cello that brings out a
wonderful response, and thrills the
i hearer as nothing else. The magic
touch of Miss Jean on this in
strument, as well as the harp, must
Lave exceeded the most sanguine ex
pectations of all present. It ia —aid
1 that, before the war, Miss Jean play
ied for the social functions at the
1 palace of the king; and since music
in elgium is advanced to a super la;
t»ve degree, nothing further need be
said as to her ability.
The vocal selections by Mr, Collig
non, baritone, were of a high order.
His voice carries excellently in a wide
range, and his manner of attack is
quite similar to that of Caruso. The
fact that his son was early captured
by the invading Germans, and after
making his escape is again fighting
with his kiug, adds to the sympathy
with which Mr. CollignoQ sings.
Seldom have the people of Ameri
cis had the opportunity to see and
hear a more finished pianist than Miss
Radoux proved to me. She is a
charming person off the stage, and
doubly so when seated at the instru
ment. The entire program, while
classical, was yet so well rendered
that it proved most enjoyable and in
teresting to all present; and the only
regret was that, by lack of time, there
was not more of it.
