Fine Musical Program Rendered Thursday Evening.

The School of 'Music of St. Joseph’s College gave its final concert for the 1916-ISI7 school Thursday evening at the college concert hall. Five of the advanced and most proposing musk students of the college had baen selected to give the concert, and beyond a doubt, the concert stands out in the musical history of the college as one of the best recitals ever given at the college, or in Rensselaer for that matter. The program covered a wide field, from the pure, classic music of Bethoven down to the works of the most noteworthy of present day composers. While all the members on the program were excellent, both in selection and performance, the Beethoven Sonata, the Novellette by Schuman, the two pieces by Scott, the McDowell Czardas, the Hayden Trio, the Deuxieme Valse by Godard, must be especially mentioned. Undoubtedly the Hayden Trio and the Godard Valse made the most popular appea l . All those present last night hope that the excellent work of the college Music School will continue and that they will be given the opportunity next year of attending such thoroughly enjoyable concerts like the one given Thursday night.
