The organ.tecital at 5.45 was so largely attended that the thought: occurs that these recitals might well be made a regular monthly or fortnightly event. The more one hears of this splendid "instrament, the more one appreciates its truly wonderful qualities and, it may be added, Mr, R. C. Young's control its many possibilities. His playing, of the Bach Toceata and Fugue was masterly, both for the ease with! which its great technical difficulties were surmounted and the infinite variety of the expression. This piece rather threw all other compositions into the shade—there indeed only one Bach. But the} Borowski Sonata is a grand work, and Parry's elaboration of "Old 104th" is a thrilling piece of im: aginative embroidery, very finely rendered.
Mr. Pulstow's rich baritone was heard to admirable effect in two solos—"Christ went up into the: hills" and "It is enough" from the! "Elijah." One hardly hears enough of Mendlesgohn nowadays. He has suffered, after death, for his unequalled popularity while living, and much of what he wrote does not! stand the test of time. But he also Jeff much that is in the first class and the "Elijah" can surely never fail to be heard with pleasure. Mr. Fulstow sang beautifully with insight and expression.
