Th.ere was a mîiddle group, and then a last group of the lateàt songs. In 'the latter groû:p, "Moon- ligbt" and "Quietly Gxone"ý were par-. ticularly expressive and adapted to the mood of the poem. Milss Hamilton Pimyt Miss Hamilton artistically inter- preted the violin compositions, the first of which ýwas a "Preamble and Sarabande" in oid style. The Pre- amble is somewbat like a Bach in- vrention .and is especially commended. In- aIl of Miss Armstrong's céomposî- tions one -finçls a strong leaning to- wards. counterpuntal writing, and here she gives berself f ree rein. The Sarabande was a Iovely melody over harmonies that were neyer tritc. In fact, in the voice and songs one finds many happy surprises in thu harmonical structures. Tbe Sara- bande was followed by a repetition of the Preamble. This composition was well liked. The "Romance," which followed, is to be the slow movement for a sonata. It is a bit difficult to judge on first hearing, siflce it was Miss Armstrong herseif plàyed ber three piano compositions, variations, ~on "Where Have You Been, Billy IBoy, Billy Boy"; "A Flock of B'elis," and "Prelude in G Minor."
