Concert At Plymouth.
CONCERT AT PLYMOUTH .
THE concert at the Plymouth Gnildhall on Wednesday evening was a grand success , the attendance having in view the counter attractions , exceeding expectation , and although the prices of admission were exceptionally low , tho Devon and Cornwall Educational Fund will undoubtedly receive a welcome addition to its finances . Mr . John Hele , Mns . Bac , who has been indefatigable in his endeavours to make the event a profitable one in the interests of the Fund ,
must indeed be proud of the result . Although such well-known names as Messrs . Rendle , Jarvis , Morris , Fly , and Wickenden were announced , the centre of interest was naturally Miss Clara Dowle , whose reputation had preceded her . Rarely is such a voice as Miss Dowle's heard in the Hall , and the audience testified their appreciation of her rare abilities in the rendering of " I cannot say Good-bye , "
by a loud and deafening encore . " It was a Dream " was sung with the same sweetness and force by Miss Dowle , but , upon a demand being made for its repetition , tho lady re-appeared , and acknowledged the compliment , retiring , however , without fulfilling the evident desire of the audience—an act which we were glad to notice . " The Friar of Orders Grey , " by Mr . Jarvis ; " The Brothers , " by Messrs .
Barter and Rendle ; " Tho Vicar of Bray , " by Mr . J . Reudle ; and " The Vagabond , " by Mr . Morris , went capitally , in one or two instances an encore being asked for . Mr . J . Fly- ^ -who , by the war , leaves the town shortly for Torquay—played a cornet solo , " La Neige , " manipulating his instrument with his usual ability , and , in reply to a unanimous aud hearty demand , made the building echo
with the strains of " Scots Awa' where Wallace Bled . " Two part songs— " Down in a Flow ' ry Vale , " and " Friendship "—rendered by the male vocalists , concluded tho first part . A treat was in store for the audience in the second part—no less than seven selections from Gilbert and Sullivan ' s comic opera , " H . M . S . Pinafore . " But for Mr . Hele , the audience would not have had the pleasure of
listening to this delightful music . Despite the fact that at first the permission of Mr . R . D'Oyly Carte to the introduction of " H . M . S . Pinafore" appeared insurmountable , Mr . Hele persevered , and succeeded in meeting with Mr . D'Oyly Carte ' s sanction to the selections being rendered . The audience was more than pleased with the bright and sparkling " Pinafore " music , and when it is stated that Mr . Hele only had the choir together three times , the resnlfc is the
more to bo wondered at . The chora 3 numbered thirty—la lies and gentlemen . Mr . Barter showed to great advantage , whilst Mr . Rendle , as the " Captain of the Pinafore , " who " never nsed a big , big d , " was exceedingly good . Miss Dowle pathetically rendered " Sorry her Lot , " and met with the sympathetic applause of her listeners . A similar concert will probably take place in the course of a few days in aid of the same Fnnd . —Western Daily Mercury , 5 th May .
