The Hillside School and many of
its friends had a most delightful eve-
ning on F'riday of last week when the
joint recital of two Stamford musi-
cians furnishg them an evening of
music.

Miss Theresa Hoyt more than jus-
tified the enthusiastic comments
which had been made upon her by
those who had heard-her previously
and showed a beauty of tone and“

 

technique which was unusually
charming. Her rendering of the old
Italian song “La Violette." of Scar-

latti was most successful in showing
her‘command of light and delicate
staeato work while her later numbers.
especially the "Aria'f from “Louise"
and the romantic song “The Crying
of Water" showed her dramatic feel-
ing and the ability to express a. defl-
uite mood.
