Big Feature for 2nd Day
ALEX A WH/TM/RE AfVRTA K.G/l./X//VSOA/
THE METROPOLITANS
In introducing the Radcliffe Attractions which will appear
on the Chautauqua program in this city tomorrow attention
should be called to the Metropolitans composed of Myrta K. Gilkin
son, soprano, Edward Coleman, musician, and Alexa Whitmire vio
linist and pianist. The members of this company are true artists,
posessing unusual talent and ability. They have made their pro
fession a life study, and have had opportunities as afforded by
America’s as well as Europe’s greatest schools and music masters.
Each member is a soloist of ability, possessing a personality and
displaying an individuality and originality that wins an audience
from the beginning. The work of the company is on a high plane
of artistic endeavor—their ideal in programs being to use only the
best, yet so arranged that it is entertaining as well as educational.
Miss Myrta Gilkinson
Miss Myrta Gilkinson has a sweet and well trained soprano
voice of wonderful range and power capable of the most difficult
arias in Grand Opera, and equally good in the light, dainty bits of
song literature. Beauty and vvinning stage appearance combined
with a strong personality are attributes with which Miss Gilkin
son was happily endowed by nature—all of which are recognized
essentials to artistic success. Her voice is powerful yet sweet and
beautiful, together with clear, distinct enunciation and musical in
telligence, making her a singer appreciated by all.
Edward Coleman.
To play a single band instrument well requires talent. To
really master more than one is something akin to genius. Edward
Coleman is an excellent performer on EVERY band instrument.
He has been director of Rev. Johnstone Meyers’ 40 piece band,
Immanuel Baptist Church, and leader if the orchestra, Christ Re
formed Episcopal Church, Chicago. His tours as soloist with some
of the greatest bands and kindred organizations in this country
testify to the recognition his skill has won from leaders in the mus
ical field. His remarkable versatility will be shown in the expert
playing of popular airs and operatic selections, changing from
the plaintive, sweet voiced flute to-roaring saxaphone, the gentle
horn, the shrill piccolo or the martial cornet, as each instrument is
best suited to express the meaning of the varying passages of the
composition.
Miss Alexa Whitmire
Miss Alexa Whitmire is a violinist of brilliant and conspicu
ous ability. In her playing there is not only unmistakable charm
but conscientious and authoritative power. She is a pianist as
well, charming on either instrument. A versatile performer ren
dering classical and less pretentious compositions with equal ease.
Her pleasing presence and gracious manner, added to her musical
qualities, assure her auditors a delightful entertainment. I«e
musical critics delight in hailing her as an accomplished and finisn
ed artist.
