4 FREDERICK ALEXANDER, A. B. Proferror of Mlzric and Director of C07IJ't'l'U!ll'0Ij' of Mzzrir A. B., University of Michigan THE CONSERVATORY or Music The most distinguished recital of the year for the Conservatory was a piano recital in Aeolian Hall, New York City, given March 4th, by our gifted young artist, James Breakey. The recital was a record-breaker for Ypsilanti since it was the first New York recital ever given by 21 faculty member of the Normal College Conservatory. Mr. Breakey was ably assisted by Walter Leary, baritone, who for one year taught here. The recital was therefore an all-Ypsilanti program. Of our alumni the most successful in a conspicuous professional career is Harold Rieder, solo organist at the Tivioli Mosfie Theatre in Newark, New Jerseyg a really superb position for a gifted organist. Among our one-time students, Miss Phoebe Jefferson has attained the fame of a two concerto concert at Queen's Hall, London, with the orchestra under direction of Sir Henry Wood. Our justly celebrated choir of two hundred mixed voices, under direc- tion of Professor Frederick Alexander, sang the alla mppellfz Christmas music in four cities: Jackson, Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti, and Detroit. The last appearance was in Orchestra Hall as soloists for the Symphony Orchestra, drawing the record-breaking audience in the series of Sunday matinees. Such varied and great public: appearances increase our pride in the Normal Conservatory of Music. Q Page Twenty-riglzt
