OTT.-. 4 THE COCHRAN ARTISTS' SERIES The second Cochran Artists' Series was enjoyed by both adult and children audiences. The artists included Gitta Gradova, Pianistg Car- n1e11, opera: Russian Symphonic Choir, Cleveland Symphony Orchestrag Fronzaley Quartetteg Sophie Braslau, Conti-alto, Mischa Elman, Vio- linist. The adults were pleased with each concert and each artist was thoroughly enjoyed. Gitta Gradova certainly made the piano ring. Carmen in English was Wonderfully portrayed. Everybody thought the Russian Symphonic Choir was wonderful. Without a pitch pipe they changed keys and never flatted. The soft- est tone could be heard and each part could be heard distinctly. The Cleveland Symphony Orchestra was also very pleasing and their music beautiful. At the matinee the leader asked the children to tell him which instrument they wanted played and their reason for wanting it demonstrated. This was very instructive and the answers were very funny. The Fronzaley Quartette gave some wonderful music. Their tones were beautiful. Every instrument could be heard in the beauti- ful chords of the music. Sophie Braslau certainly pleased her audiences. She has a very pleasing personality. Many people said they would like to hear her again. Mischa Elman, the great violinistf' ended the second Cochran Artists' Series. Elman played beautiful music and delighted his audi- ences. He proved himself an artist. The series delighted the music-lovers that came to hear them. I The children enjoyed the matinees which included only five of the series. Next year the program will be just as interesting. It is as follows: October-Russian Symphonic Choir. November-Guy Maier and Lee Pattison-Pianists. December-The Cleveland Orchestra, Nikolai Sokoloif, Conductor. January-Marie Tiffany, Soprano, and Carlos Salzedos, Harpist. February-Efrem Zimbalist, Violinist. Ctwenty 'ninej
