Carnival (Schumann) The composer is one of the greatest and leader of the romantic school ot composition. This composition is the most difficult to follow and understand on the program. It is a sequence of short pieces depicting a street procession and scenes before a masked ball. They are as follows: Preamble: The band marches at the head of the column of gay revelers, playing a stirring tune. Enter Pierrot, In loose flopping all in white, with whitened face, tumbling over and over as he strolls along: with him, Harlequin, the clown, capering about.

They finally unite in the satiric "Valse noble" dancing with mock dignity. Then "Eusebius" the tonal picture of Schumann in a tender, shy mood, followed by Florestan.the impetuous Schumann fighting for ideals. These titles are both pen names under which the composer wrote. Then' flirting, languishing Coquette with her impudent "Hello" easily dis-cernable in the music, followed by the answer of the pleading lover interrupted by Coquettes frivolity. Suddenly the Papillons or Butterflies flash into view and Mummers dance with the letters A-S-S-H in full sight.

"Chiarina" the wife of Schumann, appears followed by the delicate Chopini' then Estrella, Schmnann's first love.

Little of importance was taken up. Rev. E. C. Lindley, of the Free Methodist Church, asked for the use of Island Park for a camp meeting for his church from July 5 to July 18.

Liermann, asking' that the city replat blocks and in Howland's addition to the city. He is building a house on one block and wants the lots to face on Ann and Elizabeth streets instead of on Frankfort.

An ordinance will probably be prepared soon replatting the blocks as he owns all the property in both blocks. The offer made by E. C. Lowe of the Western Audit company to audit the city's books was accepted and the action of the city manager was confirmed. A petition for, a sidewalk on the east side of Minnesota between First and Second was received.

B' IS tl it I is i ognition perhaps we have the un masking with all its fun leading to the entrance of Pantalon and Columbine and their dance, a Valse Allemande into which the fiery Paganinl leaps, almost ruining the Allemande which is finally resumed and closes with the delicate Aveu or confession of love. All the couples now stand and Promenade, then Pause while the dancers take sides and prepare for the march of the Progressives against the' Conservatives. The March of 'the David-blunder a-gainst the Phillistines is on, the latter shouting'an old song. The champions of progress and idealism are at last victorius and the reactionaries completely routed. This forms the climax and close of the Carnival.

The Erl-King (Schubert-Liszt) The Liszt concert transcription of this most dramatic of Schubert songs. The tale of the sick child, the confident father galloping homeward with the child in his arms, and the enticing Erl-King. Note the hoof-beats and the three voices, as. Friedmann plays it. Serenade (Schubert-Liszt) This most beautiful love song arranged exquisitely by Liszt from the vocal score.

The Bat (Strauss-Godowsky) A concert waltz of Johann Strauss transformed into a composition of terrific difficulty and brilliance by Leopard Gowdowsky, the world famous pianist.

STOUT The approaching number of the Winfield Concert series brings to Winfield one of the outstanding artists of the piano touring the country today. In the hope that a brief, non-technical analysis of the program will be of great assistance in aiding laymen to a better understanding of the works presented by Ftiedmann, the following paragraphs are offered to the public. Rondo in A Minor (Mozart, 1756-1791).

The composer was the musical genius of the period and one of the great ones of all time. The Rondo is a composition derived from one of the old dance forms, which has since become one of the basic music structures. Listeners should attend to beauty of tone, simplicity of theme and harmony, scales like pearls, and delicate treatment throughout. Rondo (Hummel-Friedman). The composer a pupil of Mozart, a minor influence in history.

This work is unfamiliar to the writer. Friedmann has probably modernized the work somewhat making it better suited to our pianoforte. Nocturne Op. 62, No.2 (Chopin) The composer is the greatest writer for piano that ever lived. The nocturne is a composition originated by the Irishman, John Field, and idealized by Chopin.

It expresses usually calmness, peace, contemplation, reverie, ietc, although many are quite dramatic in part. This particular nocturne opens with an extremely beautiful melody, splendidly developed, finally working into a more involv ed section which requires care to follow. Listeners should note beauty of tone, phrasing, dramatic points in the melodic outline and take to listen carefully in the more incomprehensible middle section. The final close is extremely beau-, tiful. I Polonaise Fantalisie (Chopin) A stately, martial dance of Polish origin.

This polonaise is one of. Chopins greatest, opening with a highly ornamental introduction before breaking into the stately polonaise rhythm. There is a beautiful'' nocturne-like movement in the center of this composition, then follows a return of the polon--aise atmosphere, the piece rising-to magnificent heights and closing softly over a muffled drum roll. Waltz in A flat (Chopin) An' idealized form of the old dance. Listeners should note the crisp: ness of the left hand work, the whirling brilliance of the right hand themes, sweeping melodies, the real ball-room atmosphere.

Two Mazurkas (Chopin) Choice not specified. The Mazurka is the most popular Polish dance, idealized by Chopin, and may be bright and joyous, mournful, humorous, express any mood. Note the accent always on the second beat of the three-four measure. i Five Etudes Choice not specified. The Etude is a study designed to develop some particular difficulty in piano tech nic.

The Chcpin Etudes are far more than this, not only being tremendously difficult but musically ore veritable poems in tone. Listeners should note beauty of WAS I'OXCA CAR Cadillac Found Here Yesterday Was Stolen at I'onea City. The Cadillac car found near Tisdale yesterday and held by the sheriff's' office was stolen night before last at Ponca City, it was announced today.
