PIANOFORTE RECITAL

Music-lovers in Dunedin are undoubtedly assured of a musical treat on Saturday next, when Mr Frank Bennett gives his pianoforte recital in Burns Hall. It is so seldom that we are given the opportunity of judging tho standard to which our own musicians have attained that the interest which is being taken in the recital is only to be expected. Mr Bennett has received his musical education entirely from Miss Yorston, of this city, who 'has trained many of Dunedin’s most talented musicians. A feature of the recital will bo the annotated programme, giving in brief the story on which each work is founded and items of 'interest in connection with it. This will enable the audience to follow each item with added interest, and give them an understanding of the inspiration that moved the composer in each case. Mr W. G. Gemmell will render vocal items, and Mr C. A. Martin will play the accompaniments. Tickets are on sale at Begg’s and Tho Bristol. Tho box plan for reserved seats is now open at Eegg’e. Concessions may he arranged at the box office for parties of not less than twelve students..
