THE CONCORDIA CONCERT COMPANY is a unique group of Lady Artists who offer a program of brilliance in its high standard of merit in music and literature. The performers have all won individual success, and in forming the present organization, have made a master stroke in harmony and co-operative expression.
Jeromeville, O., Aug 7, 1915
To the Concordia Concert Company:
I want to express to you my appreciation of the good work you have done for us while on the Circuit. You have well held the attention of our audiences, which is the highest commendation that can be paid any attraction.
Very truly.
Orie Rowand. Representative. Cleveland Lyceum Bureau.
Mountain City, Tenn., Jan. 20, 1915
To Whom it may Concern:
The Concordia Concert Company was with us for an evening entertainment in our High School Auditorium. The program was listened to by more than three hundred of our best school people who proved by their frequent encoring that they were highly pleased with the program given by these young ladies.
Very respectfully submitted.
J L. Shoun, Supt. of Public Instruction, Johnson County, Tenn.

To Whom this may Concern:
The Concordia Concert Company gave to the crowded Auditorium of the Grace M. E. Church a most pleasant, and enjoyable evening of entertainment.—Akron, O.
Algood, Tenn.
The third number of the Lyceum course was given Monday night when the Concordia Concert Company entertained a large audience at the school auditorium. This was one of the best lyceum numbers ever presented to an Algood audience. The three young ladies comprising this excellent company are all artists in their respective line.
Shepherdsville. Ky.
The second entertainment given by the Concordia Concert Company at the Masonic Temple fulfilled every recommendation made concerning it. It was a decided success. The musical program rendered by these young ladies was high class and met with the enthusiastic approval of those present. Each young lady is an artist in her line,—

The Concordia Concert Company, consisting of three charming young ladies from the Hoosier state, gave a most delightful and artistic program last evening. Miss Maude Feller Wagner is a reader of rare ability. Her clear, pure tones could be heard distinctly above the soft strains of Home Sweet Home upon the violin, accompanied by the piono, in her rendition of The Opera Ontore. Miss Lewis is a violinist of more than ordinary ability, and Miss Trueblood, the cornetist, produced upon this instrument the clearest and sweetest tones.—
Smiths Grove, Ky., Times.
The concert given Monday evening at the Opera House by three members of the Concordia Concert Company was very largely attended and was of a high order. Miss Lewis' violin solo was the first number, and she played with excellent artistic execution. All of her numbers were well received. The cornet solos of Miss Trueblood were among the most enjoyable numbers on the program. Her tones were unusually clear and soft. Miss Wagner has been heard in Noblesville many times and always pleases her audiences, Monday evening being no exception.—
Noblesville Ledger.
The Concordia Concert Company played before a crowded house here Friday evening and merited all the applause they received. They made good with a vengeance and the evenings entertainment was worth the price of a full course lyceum ticket. The audience repeatedly encored the members of the company and should they again play in Alexandria it will be to a crowded house.—
Alexandria Times, Alexandria, Tenn.
A program of unusual merit was the one presented last evening at the First Presbyterian church by the Concordia Concert Company, which was varied enough to appeal to any audience
Miss Wagner's selection from The Sign of The Cross was exceptionally good and showed her to be possessed of unusual dramatic ability. Her other readings while of a lighter nature, were equally good and mark her as an artist in her work. Miss Lewis' violin numbers were rendered with an ease and skill which showed both talent and careful training, while Miss Trueblood's cornet selections delighted her audience. Her playing of The Lost Chord and the beautiful Hawaiian farewell song, Aloha Oe were especially pleasing. She plays with an ease and surety of tone which is remarkable for one of her age. The whistling duet, with piano and violin accompaniment, was a novel musical offering which was well receive.—
Daily Republican, Seymour, Ind.
The Concordia Concert Company gave another pleasing concert at the First Methodist church last evening.—

CICERO, Ind., Oct. 1—The Concordia Concert Company, of Noblesville, gave a very interesting and instructive musical program in the opera house Tuesday night. They are talented young ladies and their program was enjoyed by all present. Miss Wagner's numbers were well received especially the reading of Act I, scene 3, from Shakespeare's As You Like It. Miss Jenette Lewis, violinist, displayed splendid training and careful practicing and is an inspiration to those who hear her. She received many encores. Miss Edith Trueblood, of Noblesville, cornetist, gave her numbers with much ease and grace, her tones being full and mellow and her volume excellent. Several vocal numbers by Miss Trueblood added much to the evening's enjoyment.
MILTON, Iowa, July 29, 1914—The concerts given by the Concordia Concert Company at the Chautauqua, were highly satisfactory and pleasing in every respect and brought fort many encores. Each member of the company proved herself an artist in her special line of work.—
Milton Herald
This excellent company of talented young ladies are popular and well known entertainers. Miss Wagner is a graduate of the Marion School of Oratory and the Metropolitan School of Dramatic Art in Indianapolis. Miss Trueblood is an advanced pupil of Prof. Leslie M. Peck, of Metropolitan School of Music, of Indianapolis. Miss Lewis is one of the most advanced pupils of Nathan L. Davis, who is one of the foremost instructors of violin in Indianapolis. They have appeared before the public many times and never failed to please their listeners.—

Miss Jenette Lewis is a violinist of more than ordinary ability, playing with sincerity and thoroughness. Her solos show beauty and solidity of tone, musical feeling and skill in matters of rythm and phrasing.
Miss Maude Wagner, the reader, gave an appreciated program of selections. Her version of the scene from As You Like It could not have failed to please any audience. In her other selections she showed her ability and she responded to hearty encores. Her readings included numbers from Riley, Dunbar and Kipling—

Miss Edith Trueblood, cornet soloist, recently played at one of our school concerts, and received a real ovation. Her clear tone, musicianly phrasing, and winning personality made her at once a favorite with the audience.—L. E. Peck, Metropolitan School of Music
