ITALIAN MUSIC
FINE CONCERT AT
PENINSULA
A delightful programme of Italian music, arranged by the Hongkong branch of the Danto Alighieri Association was render- ed by well-known local artistes at the Peninsula Hotel last night in the presence of a large and dis- tinguished audience over which Comm. A. Bianconi, Consul Gen- cral for Intly, presided.
Choral music of the 16th Con- tury and the beginning of the 17th Century, with religious composi- tions and madrigals of the same era, formed the male part of the Choir programme. The Salesian of Chinese boys under the age of fourteen, gave splendid render-i ings..
The programme was carried out under the_capable direction of Maestro E. Gualdi.
Mr. M. H. Arnold's cellu solo, accompanied by Mrs. G. W. R Griggs, of Corelli's "Grave," re- ceived a great ovation, as did Mrs. J. Tetley, the local soprano, with her renderings of "lo Tentu Invan" and "Vezzonetic."
Miss Elive Yuen (soprano) won well-merited applause with her fine rendering of "Che mi giova di "star" (Zianl)" and "Occhi Bell!"-
Selected voices of the choral group were well brought out in the aria "Degli Occhi Morra," to tho nocompaniment of the Very Rev. Father A. Riganti.

On the whole the griffins have proved disappointing. Herod, after all, was a kept over animal and will, in my opinion, remain unbeaten throughout the year if confined to griffin races.
