MR. CHARLES TREE

Author of "How to acquire Ease of Voice Production."

Mr. TREE holds that undue effort in singing is fatal to art.

Mr. Harry Beswick (Manchester Critic) says:-"The student of voice-production will be grateful for the simplicity of style, as well as for the wealth of advice it contains. A veritable mine of information. It is the best book of its kind I have read.'

Publishers, Messrs. JOSEPH WILLIAMS, Ltd., Great Portland Street. Stockport Vocal Society, December 4, 1911.-"Mr. Tree had ample opportunity of showing his artistic gifts. Whether he is singing nonsense verse, a spirited martial air, a charming French love ballad, or a vivid realistic piece, he always makes the music 'live.' He is undoubtedly one of the cleverest vocalists in this country. He gave no less than ten songs, and every one was a delightful piece of vocalisation. Like the audience in their demand for encores we find it difficult to curb our enthusiasm in writing about such a capable singer."-Advertiser. Concert Bookings-29, King's Road, Sloane Square, S. W.

TOILERS OF THE DEEP

CANTATA

FOR FEMALE VOICES

VERSE BY JAMES STRANG

MUSIC BY

ALFRED R. GAUL.

"The musical settings are twelve in number, the part-writing for first and second sopranos and contraltos. The utmost care and finish has been bestowed in wedding appropriate music to the verse, and Mr. Gaul has written nothing finer, nor more melodious and captivating in this branch of composition specially adapted for High Schools for Girls. The cantata begins with an instrumental introduction in the form of a barcarolle, in G minor, 9-8 time, moderato. At the close the tempo changes to 2-4, Allegro agitato, descriptive of an approaching storm. But this is of short duration and leads to the chorus, Toiling and toss'd on the restless sea,' which is dramatic and spirited in character, the theme being based upon a bright melody, and the part-writing remarkably effective. No. 2 is a Cradle Song, Come, my baby,' in G major, Andante moderato, 3-4 time, allotted to a contralto. The accompani ment to this delightful lullaby is constructed on a pedal note, the melody that accompanies it being at once expressive and thoroughly characteristic. The chorus which immediately follows the cradle song opens with a tempestuous instrumental introduction of chromatic scalepassages and chords, the key now changing into C major, 12-8 time, Allegro con fuoco. At the fourteenth bar the chorus enters with 'Oh, ho! for the winds that blow'; the whole of this number being of an impassionate and restless character. Quite in contrast to the foregoing is the pretty ballad for soprano, 'A mermaid dwelt,' which closely follows the chorus. It is in Tembo di Barcarolle in F major, 6-8 time, quaint and most espressivo. A short unaccompanied trio, The twilight gray is falling,' brings us to what may be termed the gem of the work, a song for soprano, 'O, manly hearts.' The key is E flat major, 2-4 time, Andantino espressivo. Mr. Gaul is here in his happiest mood, the whole song being graceful and charming to a degree. The number that follows is the chorus Darker and darker grows the night,' which is preceded by a characteristic instrumental prelude in triplet passages, 2-2 time, C minor, Allegro con fuoco. The whole of this chorus will deeply impress the attentive listener. No. 8, 'A prayer for those at sea,' for chorus, with an organ accompaniment, is in the key of F, 3-4 time, alla cappella, and is another example of purely melodious part-writing which characterises Mr. Gaul's compositions, and which is certainly conceived in his best and most expressive manner. The concluding numbers are a short Intermezzo, entitled 'Break of day,' a duet for soprano and contralto, 'Through golden mists of morn,' in the key of B flat, 12-8 time, Allegretto con moto, an exceedingly animated movement; then comes another cradle song, expressive of the father's safe return from sea, and, finally, the concluding joyous chorus, 'Now let songs of gladness rise. Taking the cantata as a whole, it is a delightful work. replete with artistic workmanship and, above all, melodious and expressive."-Birmingham Daily Mail.

THE ELFIN HILL

AN OPERETTA FOR SCHOOL USE

MUSIC BY

ALFRED R. GAUL.

"The Elfin Hill' is founded on one of Hans Andersen's charming stories, and the libretto has been written in dainty and graceful language by Miss Baldwick. The operetta opens with a short overture describing moonlight on the Dovrefeld Mountains, and Mr. Gaul has been particularly happy in infusing the Norse spirit into that portion of his music which deals with goblin life in Norway. When the goblins become visitors in fairyland, the character of the music changes; lightness is its predominant feature, perhaps the choicest fragment being a fairy dance. This latter, together with a very charac. teristic dance of elves and a shadow dance, were beautifully executed." -Birmingham Gazette.

"By the production of these Trios our townsman, Mr. A. R. Gaul, has made a valuable addition to the many beautiful and useful composi tions he has formerly given to the public. Mr. Gaul's music is unfailingly charming, the voice-parts being so disposed that they may be easily learnt, and the accompaniments are as characteristic as they are pretty. Each separate piece is so good that we cannot make references to special favourites. Young ladies who take pleasure in part-singing will find variety in the collection, and both in the home-circle and in the school class Mr. Gaul's new work is sure to be heartily welcomed.”— Birmingham Daily Gazette.

FOR THE SEASON OF

LENT AND GOOD FRIDAY.

"The course of sacred events connected with the Passion is laid out so as to form a series of six distinct 'scenes.' The subjects of these divisions, each occupied with a particular stage of the Mystery, are 'The Traitor at the Table,' respectively: The Denial,' The Condemnatian before Pilate,' 'The Mockery on Calvary,' 'The Shadow of Death,' and 'The Holy Sepulchre.' Mr. Gaul's work will undoubtedly greatly enhance his already high reputation in the line of sacred composition."-Musical Standard.

"Scholarly writing, combined with unmistakable talent, and eminently adapted to the purpose for which it was written and composed. The work will probably be largely used, and Mr. Gaul has to be congratulated upon another success."-Sheffield Independent.

Arranged for a limited Orchestra-namely, Strings, 2 Flutes, 2 Clarinets, 2 Cornets, Bass Trombone or Euphonium, and Kettledrums. Vocal Score, paper cover, 2s. 6d. ; paper boards, 3s.; scarlet cloth, 4s. Words only, 7s. 6d. per 100.
