ORGAN RECITAL
Several important works were included in the programme of music given by the City Organist (Miv Page) at his weekly organ recital in the' Town Hall last night. Tho wonderful prelude to Act 1 of "Tristran and Isolde" (Wagner), the greatest musical picture of love aud despair ever produced, was the chief number in the first part of tho programme. Earlier items were Rheinberger's Fantasie-Sonata, (Op. 65), "Eo. niance" (Wheeldon), "Harmonies <lu Soir" (Ivarg-Elcrt), and "Humoreske Op. 101" (No. 7), (Dvorak). Tho eccond part of the programme contained Saint Saen's melodious "Fantaisie" (Op. 101), a composition that finds the composer in one of his happy and restrained moods; and Bach's Toccata and Fugue in C Minor, a work that is full of charm and nobility.
