Hayes Conquers South [ Carolina ,:.--- By II. -W?Baumgardner. Last Friday evenirtg Roland Hayes sang himself into' the hiVirtr thotrsands of musjo Ipynrq n| thri nnwi^nrdious Columbia Theatre. From the moment that Mr. Hayes made, his initial appearance followed by his ac companist Percival Parham it was evident that an evening of rare enter tainment was in store for those who were fortunate enough to be present, Not the least of Mr. Hayes' accom . plishments is his ability to create the necessary, atmosphere for the perfor ma nee of a work of art. It was not . until .absolute1 quiet prevailed through out the vast audience that the signal -was given Mr^_Parham to caress the Levs nf The " beulttiful 'and tnnornl Baldwin Piano to the strains of Bee. thoven's sweet "AUelaida." When turous applause that ensued was suf f'eient to pro've" that Roland had won his audience. A program of rare heautv and feel ' -lug was rendcrrd~tTi~\vhieh <>hiy the ^ work of a musical artist was seen. One was so transported by the silver1 ' rotes and their effect that one was ( impelled to forget-that one Was lis toning to Roland Hayes, the world's greatest tenor. It was only the music that one hi'sip^It was only iho.wrmg*' J T" of the inspiration, for the songs that were rendered that one saw as .tin.'., urtir.t, oblivious of1 his Surround * ings? portrayed in his very features ' the pathos^- ecstacy, fervor, yearning 1 lightness of mood, or whatever there . was in each song. He sang in four * languages, Italian, German, French ) and Krglish. In each of these ton ' gues he showed a remarkable verisi ! jnilitude of reproduction. Critics throughout the world have conimenrU _ -ttHTrrTT-fnr~kiftawlesshess of diction. 1 Our knowledge of languages, though * merit with such critics. * ' The "composers and their produe- . 'ions making up the Hayes program ; are: Beethoven, "Adelaide:" Handel.- "Would You Gain the Tender Crea- j turo," fcoin "Acis and-Galatea:" Morait, <kUn Aura Amorosa," from "Co- * si Fan Tutte;" three Schubert songs: j and "Fischcrweise;" Saint-Saen's, 1 "Dar.se Macabre:" Franek. "Nop- j turne; "Grilles '^T.abient of Ian the -1 I'royd;"- Hoist, "The Heart Worships" . Slpnimsky, Lit?Tp Pool;" Medt- ! ner;. "Serenade;" and the Negro Spirituals "Go Down Moses," "I stan' and fol' my arms," "f)r let_m?- shine." \ "Sometimes L_ieel lik0 a Motherless ' c'Tiild," *"Dat's all I Want." Among ^ his encore numbors the work song ^ "Water Boy,r and Burleigh's Deep t River" were sung by request?" ' ? It . might depend largely upon the ' linLfiiistic itccomp1'^*""""' "f Hi -H ditors as to which songs pleased them j most. The Italian student would t doubtless enjoy Hayes' singinc of i "Un Aifra Amorosa." The French r""1'1 S U !'*?+ ?-elf') I'* t-Vl ? h>'i?; ? "tins number received prolonged, applause.. The German student would he compelled to enjov the guttural? and \yhat the, uninitiate miglit. -LiaU?a- * certain bat sinless attunes in the rendition" of-MDfe- Post," "Dass* Sie hier Gewesen" and. "Fischerwerse." So ptuvfoft?war.- M-e:?Hayes' lbTerpret'a~ ~ tion of his material that his changing | Co..;.. i .-?-*? j?v.ai tvwjietisiun ana n(s etteetive use of hirt^h'-itK^ nrnj-bfKty wore mistaken for strain by one critic. Although this writer has heard Hayes in many pyevi.Qus recitals, but his t Columbia performance was the best he has been privileged to hear,' is the writer's opinion. Mr. Parham deserve,, mention for thP accomplished manner in which he accompanied the linger. He proved that he too is an artist. Mr. Hayes is better, by far; as a singer of classical numbers, than he is of Negro, Spirituals, al- ; (hough he gets as much out of them as his sensitive nature can be expect t'd to gain. 1 CHESTER PARAGRAPHS J Mrs. Bessie Lee has returned from 1 Washington, D.
