tion of California in Century Hall, San Francisco,
on July 5, 6 and 7, by giving an exceedingly inter-
esting address on "Chamber Music," which aroused
unusual enthusiasm among his critical audience.
His address was followed by a delightful rendition
of his remarkable Chamber Music Quintet for
piano and strings in C minor, which created a
genuine sensation. The critics in their reviews
have been lavish in their praise of this masterpiece,
which has already taken a high place in present-
day chamber music compositions. Among the lat-
est compositions by Mr. Perlet receiving a full
meed of praise are six Salon Sketches for the
pianoforte, published by M. Witmark & Sons, with
titles as follows: "Whispers," "Expectation," "In
the Swing," "Joyeux," "Spinning Song," and "In
Solitude." Some idea of the value of these sketches
to both teacher and student may be gathered from
a letter written by Arthur Frickens, one of
California's most prominent music teachers, in
which he says: "My Dear Mr. Perlet—Your six
Salon Sketches have proven such a source of use-
fulness and satisfaction to me in my teaching that
1 desire the pleasure of sending you a word of
appreciation. The 'spinning Song' furnishes an
admirable study in execution, and all are imbued
with a perfectly natural melodic and rhythmic flow
which never fails to hold the pupil's sympathetic
interest.
Certainly when men of such ability
recognize the claim of younger students as you
have done there should be a large demand for the
work. I thank you most heartily for making me
acquainted with such charming compositions."
