FRANK lIUTCIIKNS,

A FORTHCOMING MUSICAL TKGAT

The name of Frank UuH'hons will be quite familiar to tin/ m.ijority of our readers, as the musical achievements of the •brilliant young New Zealander have been the subject of many items in our cable news and Home correspondents' notes. After winning golden honors from leading Australasian critics, and with the enthusiastic approval of Mark Ifainbourg and Paderewski, this thirteen-year-old .pianist went to London, where his conspicuous ability soon placed him in a high position at the Royal Academy of Music, and now, with the hall-mark of great success in the musical metropolis of the world, and laden with honors. Prank Hutchens returns on a visit to his native,land. The music-lovers of New Plymouth will have the opportunity of l hearing this brilliant artist at the I Theatre Royal on Monday next. Accompanying Mr. Hutchens are two singers of unusual ability. Mr. Will Hutchens, the pianist's brother, is well-known throughout New Zealand as tenor whose singing, whether of florid arias or simple ballads, always rouses great enthusiasm and delights his hearers, Miss Ethel Carter, meo/jo-soprano, is the possessor of a truly fine voice, and her artistic renderings have made her a favorite on the concert platform. Wo urge theatre-goers to book their seats at once at the British and Continental Piano Co. The prices are 3s, 2s and Is. Outside Taranaki the charges will be 4s, 2s Ud and Is.
