Hieir single selection was Grieg's sonata in major for violin and piano, one of his earlier works, bearing the opus number 8.

"Zueignung," Richard Strauss; Erich Wolff's lovely "Du bist so Jung," Kenneth Walton's robust "The Knight" and Mana-Zucca's brilliant "I Love Life.

For an encore in answer to insistent applause he added Kenneth Leslie Smith's "Salt Water," a character song that was much liked. Mrs. Nesbitt played musicianly accompaniments for all the songs and shared in receiving the applause. Mrs. Adam Leroy Jones, chairman of the museum's music committee, thanked the artLsts at the close and invited the audience to view the many exhibits.
