The concerts will be- gin .Thursday evening, Jan. 30, with Miss Mabel Riegelman, soprano, of the Chicago Grand Opera company, assist- ed by Celen Loveland, a pianist of dis- tinction in the ranks of the younger pianists of the west. Miss Riegelman is one of the most popular members of the Chicago Grand Opera company, having made an enviable name for herself as the creator of the roles of Gretel in Hum- perdinck's "Hansel und Gretel," the Cricket in Goldmark's "Cricket on the Hearth" and similar roles. The same charm that wins the hearts of her hearers in these roles makes her at- tractive in concert programs. Miss Riegelman is to appear only in two concerts in the west this season--one in the Florentine room of the Con- gress hotel on Jan. 25 and the other for the Wllmette Woman's club.
