Delightful Recital At Trinity Dhurch

Last evening‘ a. delightful re- cital was given at Trinity United Church, Charlottetown, by William Keith Rogers, pianist and Roystm F. Mug-ford, organist.

The entire concert was charac- terized by a fluency of expression and s pleasing balance of instru- ments, The remarkable coordin- ation between the two artists re- flected a sympathetic understand- ing of the functions of both the piano and organ.

The opening selection was the well known chorale, ‘Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring‘ from the church cantata, ‘Hertz und Mund’ by Johann Sebastian Bach. This sel- ection evidenced a lucid flow 0f expression on the part. of both musicians. From among the sev- eral arrangements which have been made of this choi-ale, Mr. Rogers chose one by the farmous pianist, Harold Bauer.

The second selection of the evening was the ‘Piano Sonata in C Major‘ by Mozart arranged by Grieg. This offering seemed to present a secular continuity of expression from the previous re- ligious offering. During the renl diilen of this number, Mr, Rogers drinonstrntcd a technical excel- lcnce accompanied by an admir- able interpretation of this great composer's musical genius. '

'La Cathedral Ihigloutie’ by the renowned French composer, Claude mehussy, envisions an ancient city buried inr below the surface of the sea. Throughout the work the composer has skillfully depicted divers sub-aqueous tonal effects. With little imagination the list- ener can picture the cathedral slowly rising frcm the mists, can hear the swell of the mighty or- gan. bells tolling from the cath- edral tower and finally the lap- ping of the waves which casts the vision once again into the mists from whence it came. Both Mr. Rogers and Mr. Mugfcrd. vmrklng in close rapport, presented this vivfd musical description played with reflective and sympathetic feeling, The arrangement of this number was made by Wllliflm Keith R0119“-

Mr. Rogers next offered two solo selcciions of which the first vi-as s brilliant tc-nal composition, ‘Jeux Dillon‘ by the late French composer Maurice Revel. In his playing of this work l\ir_ Rogers

masterful manner.

For his second solo number, William Rogers played the fam- iliar ‘Polonaise in A flat’ by Chopin, This offering was mark- ed by striking melodic and tonal effects, which though startling to the ear at times, produced an overall impression or vivid force and beauty.

Following a hrief intermission ‘both soloists returnist to present the ‘Coronation Scene from Boris Godounov’ by the brilliant Rus- sian composer Moussorgsky, This moving musical setting. regal in nature, displayed skillful coord- ination between hoth musicians. The music wuscharacterized by a mounting crescendo and by sus- tained passages of majestic feel- ing. The orchestral score was ar- ranged for organ by Roypton Mugford.

The final and major work of the evening was Serge Rachman- in0fii's brilliant ‘Concerto No. 2 in O Minor’. The full-bodied and rich melody which was woven into the theme of the work proved to be both charming and thoroughly delightful. Mr. Rogers’ facile leg- ato was particularly noticeable in this selection.

At no time during the evening did the organ tend to overpower the theme which was being car- ried by the piano. Mr. Mugford is to be complimented 0n the ad- mirable restraint which character- ised his skillful use of the organ. The thrilling finale of the Con- certo concluded the recital in a restrained but nonetheless emo-

tionally sstiefying manner.

A revolutionary method in mod- ern long distance telephone com- munication between Charlottetown and New Glasgow, N.S_. is on the verge of completion through the progressive efforts of the Island Telephone Company in co-oper- ation with the Maritime Telephone and Telegraph Company.

The new set-up, which is known as a Micro-Wave Link System em- ploying Pulse Time Modulation techniques, or more commonly known as a radio transmitting and receiving system. will he the first of its type in the world to be used for comm rcial purposes. and W111 open up 6 channels of telephone communication between here and New Glasgow. as compared with the two which are provided by the present submarine cable system. The equipment also includes a special unit for carrying radio net- work programs. and enough blank units to increase the number of communication channels to 23 if required.

The installation here. which is being set up at Tea Hill, consists of specially constructed. one story building which houses the receiv- ing and transmitting equipment. as well as an auxiliary gas-driven generator for stand-by power sup- ply in the event of regular power failure. Outside the building, the receiving and transmitting anten- nae. housed in "parabolic reflect- ors". more commonly teznsed "dishes," are mounted on two. 60 foot" telephone poles in an “H” construction, with the poles being

of British Columbia Douglas Fir, which have been treated with a special creosote solution. The

"dishes" which are circular, and made of spun aluminium of l0 feet in diameter, each weighing over 600 pounds. are mounted one above the other, (the upper "Dish" being for transmission and the lower for receiving), on steel fram- es of 762 pounds each. which are attached to the poles by supporting cross-beams. These parabolic re- flectors or “dislies" react vezy much the same as the reflector in the headlight of a car, reflecting and intensifying the micro-waves from the antennae. and operatlnf; 0" l direct line of sight with the re- flectors of the corresponding stat-

The dimensions of the building are 24 l-2 feet by 14 l-Z feet of one-storey construction.

Telephone communications to and from the transmitting and re- ceivlng station at Tea Hill to th-e local telephone office is carried by means of 25,000 feet of 26 P!" cable, which is of overhead con- struction fzcm the station to the corner of Weymouth and Kent Streets. from where it is trans- ferred to underground cable i0 the Telephone Company lowed on the corner of Fitzroy and Queen streets.

Mr. LE. Ti-outman. representing the Federal Tele Communications Labrutorics. New York. which de- signed and built this newsystem of communication is here in charge of the installation of the equipment. while Mr. AH.
