Unabashed by the emotion he had displayed, the virtuoso wiped his eyes, and sat waiting like one in a trance for his child to appear again. Anne and Grace were alive with curiosity as to the outcome of Anne's suggestion. They had eagerly scanned the house before the concert began, but had failed to locate Miss Nevin and Eleanor's father.
It belongs to us, and we simply can't let it slip through our fingers." "And so you shall get it," was the answer, "but with John, the coachman, for a bodyguard." "May we go this minute?" chorused both girls. "Yes," nodded Miss Nevin. "I'll send word to John to get out the run-about and take you at once."
"My dear, you had better allow Eleanor to provide you with dry clothing and remain with her to-night," suggested Miss Nevin as they entered the hall. Then ringing for the maid, she ordered hot chocolate. "I wish you would stay with me, Grace," said Eleanor rather shyly. "I have a great deal to say to you." "And I to you, Eleanor," Grace responded. For a moment they stood facing one another.
Paul Nevin would suit me a deal better in many ways, only I' bin keepin' Pierre on out o' charity, his pore father havin' bin a pal o' mine. But he's a deal stronger in the arms, is Paul." They reached the cottage, which stood on the first piece of level ground on the way to the mainland.
Parsons, though they add little to the volume of composition, a thing for which any one should be thanked on some considerations, yet add great dignity to their profession in this country. Arthur, a younger brother of Ethelbert Nevin, shows many of the Nevinian traits of lyric energy and harmonic color in his songs. He was born at Sewickley, Pa., in 1871.
"You have taught me that there are women as far above pettiness and spitefulness as every man should be, but as every man is not." "I wasn't like it before I knew Mrs. Chumley and Don." "You were always true to yourself, and there is no higher creed. Flamby, I have received some papers which Don left with Nevin to be delivered to me.
Nevin I have told him so and he can settle the matter." She laid her hand on Don's sleeve. "Don't think me silly, or an ungrateful little beast," she said, "but I can't talk about it any more; it makes me want to cry. Did you know that Chauvin got me a commission from the War Office propaganda people to do pictures of horses and mules and things?" "Yes," replied Don, guiltily.
Nevin has also a cantata in making. It needs no very intimate acquaintance with Nevin's music to see that it is not based on an adoration for counterpoint as an end. He believes that true music must come from the emotions the intelligent emotions and that when it cannot appeal to the emotions it has lost its power. He says: "Above everything we need melody melody and rhythm.
Nevin was one of the honored four, and appeared at the unique public Zuhören of that year, devoted exclusively to the works of Brahms, Liszt, and Raff. Among the forty or fifty studious listeners at these recitals, Frau Cosima Wagner, the violinist Joachim, and many other celebrities were frequently present.
"I know it. Still we have Chaminade and Nevin and De Bussy. Some of De Bussy's tone poems are marvels. I love 'La Lettre' and 'La Muette." "I don't think I have ever heard either of them," returned Mrs. Harlowe. "I know very little of the modern music of the French school." "I'll sing 'La Lettre' for you." Nora faced the piano to render the exquisite inspiration of the noted French composer.
