A recital ‘of artistic perfection was given at tae National Theater yesterday afternoon by Sophie Braslau, contralto of the Metropolitan Opera Company. The gorgeous palace setting of “The Czarina” formed a background for the singer, whose red velvet gown forth vividly against the gold and mosaic walls. But Miss Braslau was more than vivid, she was magnetic, and swayed her audience at will with the rich reverberating voice which express- ed tae fury of a storm, or the soothing ;-m!ences of a lullaby With equal facil- ity Her breath control was remarkable, so that not only were the sustained notes perfect, but there was always a wealth of reserve force back of her tones. Her voice was capable of the lowest mnotes in the contraito range, and yet touched higher keys with a delicacy and clearness of tonal quality which is not always attained by soprano singers, Miss Braslau's distinct enun- ciation, an art unheeded by many vocal- ists, gave a final touca of excellence to her recital. The scope of the program was wide including compositions in French, Ger- man, Russian, Hebrew, Italian and English. It was of especial interest to note that the works of seven cotem- porary song writers were - included in the varled repertoire. Such a cloud of sadness is cast over the masterpieces of many of the greatest musicians by the knowledge that success came too late to be of any benefit to them that it 18 cheering to taink that the world is now according recognition deserving _composers ~while alive to enjoy it. Miss Breslau's first selection was *The Distant Beloved,” by Bassani, and its tragic tones, some of them almost sobbed forth in intensity of feeling, gave a keynote to the entire program. for, with the exception of a few light numbers, practically every composition was in a minor key. The mysticism of Russia was express- ed in “The Storm,” and “Berceuse” by Moussorgsky, and in a_ beautiful song without words, presumably the “Cry of ‘ Russia,” by Rachmaninoff. The tragedy of the Jewish race was chanted forth in “Eili, Eile,”” by Shalitt and the rest- less spirit of Italy was voiced in “Furi- ‘bondo,” by Handel. “Ma L'il Bateau,” by Lily Strickland, was In a light lyrical vein by contrast, and was so appealing that the artist was persuaded to sing it again. Her encores, with which she was forced to be generous by the storms of insistent applause which greeted each number, included “Just a Little House of Love,” by GlanvilleeWood, and “The Sweetest Story Ever Told,” in addition to the Rachmaninoff song, and tae repeated selection. they are E.D. E Helena Marsh-Rozsi Varady, Fri- day. Helena Marsh, distinguished contralto, late of the Metropolitan Opera Com- pany, and Rozsi Varady, the youthful but masterful Austro-Hungarian violon- cellist, will appear in joint recital at the New National Theater Friday after- noon at 4:30 o'clock in the seventh con- cert of the T. Arthur Smith series. Miss Marsh, one of the most charming women on the concert stage today, is another example of an American singer who, without money and influence, has been able by merit and hard work_ to win her way to the front fank of aer profession. Miss Varady, although one of the youngest soloists now before the public, has been called the greatest woman cellist in_ the world. The insinuating uty of her tone. the firmness and strength of her bowing and clean, nimble finger work mark her wonderful playing. Tickets may be had at tae office of T.
