MR. MONTAGUE BORWELL

(BARITONE).

(Westminster Abbey)

Mr. HENRY J. WOOD (Conductor, Queen's Hall Concerts) writes:"I, Langham Place, W., Feb. 14, 1901. "Mr. Montague Borwell is an excellent vocalist.

"He has been most successful both at Queen's Hall, and at my Nottingham and Wolverhampton Concerts, in most difficult and trying roles, and I consider him one of the most reliable and painstaking baritone vocalists now before the public.

"HENRY J. WOOD." "ELIJAH."-TONBRIDGE.-"Mr. Montague Borwell was a perfect exponent of the fiery Prophet. He is the nearest approach to Santley I have heard for a long time. The dramatic instinct, the necessary sarcasm, and the devotional spirit of the Prophet were all there. The great air, Is not His Word, being sung with much spirit, the top F rang as resonantly as a bell. The beautiful air, It is enough,' was splendidly sung, and Mr. Borwell had to repeatedly bow his acknowledgments."-Tonbridge Free Press.

ELIJAH."-STOURBRIDGE." Mr. Montague Borwell sang the part of Elijah with fine dramatic expression. His taunts to the Priests of Baal were marked with bitter sarcasm, his appearances to Ahab with dignity, his lament on his betrayal by the people and his invocation to God were most impressive."-Country Express.

"FAUST" (BERLIOZ).- BALLYMONEY."Mr. Montague Borwell gave a very dramatic exposition of the part throughout. . . . His rendering of the Serenade was simply splendid, whilst his enunciation 'throughout the whole work was perfect."-Coleraine Constitution.

"FAUST" (GOUNOD).—SOUTHEND.-"The pick of the principals was Mr. Montague Borwell, whose singing, both technically and artistically, was admirable. His rendering of the Cavatina, and Valentine's death scene being beyond reproach."- Observer.

AND

MISS WINIFRED MARWOOD

(Mrs. Montague Borwell-SOPRANO). "ELIJAH."-WEYPRIDGE. "Possessing a soprano voice of fine quality and wide compass, Miss Winifred Marwood maintained a very high standard of excellence in the whole of her contributions, of which perhaps Hear ye, Israel,' was the most effective."-Surrey Advertiser. "ELIJAH."-TONBRIDGE.-" Miss Winifred Marwood made a great impression by her rendering of Hear ye, Israel.' It was sung as it should be-prayerfully, and not shouted to the people."-Tonbridge Free Press.

The distinguished English reader Mr. Charles Fry has a beautiful speaking voice and a most expressive mode of utterance. He is never monotonous, and has the knack of blending his words with the orchestral setting in the most delightful way."-The News.

"Mr. Charles Fry is a prince of elocutionists, and delivered his lines in a most dramatic manner with

absolute perfection of enunciation."-The Mail and Empire.

"The success of this production depends much on the reciter, and Mr. Charles Fry received an ovation for the splendid work he did in this part.”—Evening Telegram.

'Mr. Charles Fry is a most expressive reciter, and his expository interludes were most acceptable to the audience."-Globe.

"HIAWATHA."-WEYBRIDGE.-"Miss Winifred Marwood, a soprano "The Dream of Jubal' was a decided novelty, and it of wide range and pleasing method, and Mr. Montague Borwell, a resonant baritone, took the solos in the second scene, and their treat-proved a no less decided success. Mr. Charles Fry did his ment of the deeply pathetic picture left little to be desired."-Surrey part so superbly that one might well imagine it had been written for him. It was a revelation of the possibilities of elocution."-Daily Star.

Advertiser.

"L'ALLEGRO."-Brighton.-"Miss Winifred Marwood, who made her first appearance at the Society's Concerts, sang the soprano solos, and showed the possession of a voice of bright, clear, and resonant quality, with a cultured and finished style of vocalization. She achieved conspicuous success in her rendering of Sweet bird, that shun'st the noise of folly, for which she had to acknowledge the enthusiastic applause of a delighted audience."-Daily News, London, 48, Dyne Road, Brondesbury, N.W.

MR. ARTHUR WALENN

(BARITONE)

Of the Albert Hall, Queen's Hall, St. James's Hall Popular Concerts, Crystal Palace Saturday Concerts, Walenn Chamber Concerts, &c. 20, Ashworth Mansions, Elgin Avenue, London, W.

MR. JAMES COLEMAN

(BASS)

(Vicar-Choral, Lichfield Cathedral).

RECENT PRESS NOTICES.

"LAST JUDGMENT." Mr. James Coleman maintained his high reputation, and the air Thus saith the Lord' afforded opportunities of displaying the grand quality and power of his voice."-Derby Mercury, April 1, 1903.

"Land of hope and glory (Elgar), by Mr. James Coleman and chorus, was evidently considered the song of the evening. The applause was enthusiastic, and notwithstanding Mr. Molineaux's silent but pathetic protest, which he made to the audience watch in hand, an encore was insisted upon."-Midland Herald, March 28, 1903. "ROSE MAIDEN."-" Of Mr. James Coleman it is only necessary to say that he was in form and delighted the audience. Indeed, in the second half his songs roused the audience to an enthusiastic pitch."Staffordshire Chronicle, February 14, 1903.

"The recitation of the poem was given by Mr. Charles Fry, by whom the natural pastoral beauty of the lines was finely brought out, as well as that of a more dramatic nature."-Gazette.

"Mr. Charles Fry is intensely dramatic in this work, and holds the attention in spite of one's self."-Daily Witness. "Mr. Charles Fry was admirable as the Narrator, and recited his lines most beautifully, being dramatic without exaggeration."-Daily Star.

4

"The splendid recital of Sir Alexander Mackenzie's Dream of Jubal' in the Windsor Hall last night will never be forgotten by those who were there."-Daily Herald. "The Messiah."-" Of the work of Mr. James Coleman it would be "In consequence of its success on the Wednesday hard to speak in too great praise. He tackled the many difficult pas-night the Dream of Jubal' was repeated at Montreal on sages in masterly manner."-Nottingham Daily Guardian, January the Saturday following."
