Flonzaley Quartet

The Flonzaley quartette, now in its twenty-first season, made its annual appearance at the Academy of Music Sunday afternoon under the direction of the Indianapolis Maennerchor. The quartette this season is composed of Adolfo Betti, first violin; Felicien d' Archambeau, viola; Alfred Pochon, second violin and Ivan d’ Archambeau, violin cello. The tw r o high spots of the concert were "Death and the Maiden from Schubert's "Quartette in IJ minor,” and "The Pixy-Ring," a fairy miniature suite by Waldo Warner. The Warner suite was one of the most delightful of the programmed numbers. Brahms “Quartette in C minor. Op. 51, No. J,” opened the program. The encores were “Irish Cradle Song" ami Tsehaikowsky’s "Andante cantcbille.” In comparison to all the other string quartettes we have heard, this erne still* remains in the lead.
