According to clip- pings from the papers of that city, Mrs. Vought, who was born, reared and educated in Washington, repre- sented the music colony of the city of the Golden Gate in the program of the sangerfest in the Ixposition Audf- torium in August. She also has sung in “Traviata” with the San Carlos Opera Company in the West and has made coast-to-coast tours.

This | Washington to Be Scene of Gala Operatlc Concert 'ASHINGTON'S gala operatic con- cert known as “The Stony Point Ensemble,” which Max Rabinoff presents at the Washington Audi- torium on Thursday evening, No- vember 19, brings a four-part expo- sition of the operatic arts that are to be fostered at the American In- stitute of Operatic Art, the great institution for American opera that is now under construction at Stony Point-on-the-Hudson. Max Rabinoff is an art ploneer in America. Impresario of both the Boston Opera and the Chicago Opera, he first brought to America the Balalalka Orchestra, Pavlowa and her Ballet Russe, and lastly the famous Ukrainlan National Chorus. Today he stands as director gencral of the American Institute of Opera Art that has an imposing list of directors. As a ‘“Revellle,” Mr. Rabinoff is sending out this “Stony Point En- semble” to demonstrate the high art ideals of Stony Point and act as a forerunner of its ultimate aims. Otto H. Kahn, as we read in Au- gust, broke ground for the “Lilllan Nordica Dormitory for Women.” Elght more corner stones are to be laid this month. By May of next year the institute will be in complete operation. The concert program here will con- sist of an American group of sing- ers, formed similarly to the famous Ukrainfan National Chorus and trained by the same conductor, Alex- ander Koshetz, who has retained about 20 per cent of the original Ukrainian group, while 80 per cent i { are native Americans, assembled from the best professional artists Mr. Ra- binoff could obtain, including singers of the Harvard Glee Club, of noted choirs and concert groups. Maud Allen, the famous American dancer, will return from Europe to appear in the dance epispdes after an absence from America Of more than a decade. She will reappear in her “Salome” dance in which she first created a furore in London and started the memorable world-wide Salome craze. Miss Allen represents the mimeo-choregraphic dance, while another American icer of Itallan ancestry, Cecil D’Andfa, will be the classical premiere danseuse. Thomas Wilfred and his famous color-organ, the “Clavilux,” is to be a spectacular element in the varled production. The entire program will be enhanced by the new lighting dis- coveries of this noted i{nventor. The color organ plays symphonies in light tones and fluld color instead of sound vibrations. Soloists of note will also be heard. Yet =0 great Is the novelty of this unique program that they are re- served for the last announcement. Jeanne Palmer, lyric soprano; Oda Tallys, dramatic soprano; Claire Brockhurst, contralto, and Benno Rabinoff, violinist and a pupll of Leo- pold Auer, complete the distinguished list of artists of the “Stony Point En- semble.” Mrs. Helen Ray Hagner, at the Wil- lard, {s secretary for this gala con- cert.
