His re- eital during the Winter season, announced today by Mrs. Wilson- Greene, should of especial in- terest not only to music lovers, but to the city at large, since his recent debut in the cinema has increased Mr. McCormack's fol- lowing by many thousands. Al- though the exact date for his re- appearance is not yet definitely decided, the powers that be prom- ise there will be no slip-up, and that probably just after the Christmas bells, have rung out Mr. McCormack will be on hand once more to electrify his audience—in the way he has never yet failed to_do. Thus the new season starts rolling—and auspiciously. » o oo Atwater Kent Auditions Begin September 25 MANY young Washington singers have made application for hearings in the Fourth National Radio Audition, and Dr. Albert W. Harned, chairman of the District of Columbia committee in charge, announces that all applications must be in the hands of the committee before September * 15. This date has been selected as the last for receiving applications because the elimination tests start Thursday afternoon, Septem- ber 25, and will continue until all appli- cants are heard. Kenneth Berkeley, manager of the National Audition tests, is making ar- rangements for the reception of the contestants in the studio, where both preliminary auditions and the final com- tition will be sung. After consulting B ‘Rarned and the members of the committee, Mr. Berkeley states the time the finals will be sung will be announced just as soon as the list of finalists is completed. The competition will be broadcast and listeners will be requested to vote as to their choice among the singers. The vote of the listeners will count 40 per cent in final determination of the standing of the singers. Both Dr. Harned and Mr. Berkeley declare they believe they will place an- other national finalist before the coun- try this year, as Miss Hazel Arth, first prize winner in 1928, was placed. The national finalists share in the $2§,000 of cash awards and the 10 musical scholar- ships provided by the Atwater Kent Poundation, sponsors of the competition. Philharmonie Society Announces Soloists sowm'rs have been announced for the regular subscription concerts of the Philharmonic-Symphony Society during 1930-31.

Within, one heard Xty even during the del%-.‘ passages, people | lhnmed in n\elr seats, rustled | their programs, moved, and even attemp to applaud ‘before the music was over. In a word, there were some who behaved as badly at Bayreuth as they behave at Covent Garden in London and in the Metropolitan in New York. The delight of Bayreuth in the old days was the complete immunity that it offered from the aberra- tions which beset the ordinary or opera houses.” In congur:'iy to t’ghl.fix gr Bechert says: “Su ere is no opera | poser house in the world where the au- | dience sits in the same dead si- lence and attention from begin- ning to end of Wagner perform- ances and, mind you, perform- ances without cuts. en the traditional fanfares announcing the beginning of the performance have .died away, and the lights are turned out in the house, the public is at once hushed to still- ness and concentration. Gossipy Italians and talkative American ladies alike are awed into com- Elete silence. No rustling of o0oks, programs and papers, no fannmg no talking, almost no breathing. That is the old spirit| of Bayreuth, which still lives, be| it Toscanini, or Muck, or a lesser god who is at the desk be the singers great, mediocre or bad.” | Which brings to mind the old saying that no two people:think| alike, and that perhaps part of the world is sensitive to rational disturbances, while the other can sleep quite com(ortably through | them. It doesn’t, however, explain to the curious and untraveled just what Bayreuth is like, and| whether, if Wagner were still alive, he would have heard the rattling of the papers or silenced the talkative American ladies. * * % ¥ OX\E of the pleasing items of the past week, which bears closely on local affairs, is the well timed report from George Engels, direc- tor of the National Broadcasting Artists Service, to the effect that there is a 20 per cent increase in the advance booking of concert ists for the coming season, If rumor may be creditéd, this state of affairs is not only confined to such centers as New York, but is der reaching and includes espe- wially Washington as one of the anajor musical cities.

Donald Novm Sings In “Monte Carlo" DONALD NOVIS, the young Califor- nia tenor, who, with Miss Hazel Arth, contralto, of Wasl first place in the National o Au- dition in 1928, and is well known in ‘ashington, has an important part in the Paramount picture “Monte cnrlo" which opens Saturday, September 6, at Keith's. Novis is one of the young singers discovered in the National Radio Audition competitions, who has made especially good in singing pictures. Both Miss Arth and Novis are re- ciplents of Atwater Kent Foundation prizes who have become nationally fa- mous through their winning of these | prizes. Arth has become a promi- | ment figure in radio as a result of her selection as contralto soloist with Father Pinn's now famous “Mediaevel- ists” choir. In the two years since Novis first came 'n national attention th th win- : Atwater Kent Foundation's af m award, he has appeared in many distinctive motion pictures.

O Announcement of New Season of Phil. Opera Co. RS. MARY LOUISE CURTIS BOK, chairman of the Philadelphia Grand Opera Co., announced recently that the grand opera season of 1930-1 will be inagurated on October 16 at the Academy of Music with a perform- ance of Verdi's “Aida.” Under the auspices of the Philadel- phia Grand Opera Association, the sea- son will comprise 18 Thursday evening performances and one Saturday nuu- M:lod during the Christmas holida; pem addition to the operas which have been given by the company in previous seasons, several works not heretofore included in the repertoire will be pre- sented. Among these are “Gianni Schicchi,” "Luch di ummemom-." L'Heure l.spnrnele” lnd The repertoire for the season, with dates of the respective perlormlm:u. will be as follows: “Aida,” October 16; “Le Jongleur de Notre Dame” in whh:h Mary Garden will make her only Phil- adelphia 8 rance, October 23; “Pa- gfi;m" and “Gianni Schicchi” Octo- 30; “Lucia di Lammermoor,” No- vember 6; * Godounov,” Novem- ber 13; ‘“Tosca,” ‘:l;l‘ which dflét‘:ll;l\;g Crooks will make opera_del “La Traviata,” Dec: Hansel und Greul" and the ballet “Die Puppenfee,” Saturday matinee, Deeember 20, "Lohenmn January 15; letto,” Fel e But- terfly,” ‘Walpurgis’ Rusticana,” March 12; “Carme: 9, and “Tannhauser,” wll.h the Venus- berg ballet, which will close the season Juliette Lippe Scores At Detroit Saengerfest ULIETTE LIPPE—a singer Washing- ton music lovers remember well for her brilliant performance with the Ger- man Opera Co. during the past season— scored a considerable success at the re- cent Detroit German Saengerfest, which -;aonmded by & crowd estimated at b Word comes that the dramatic so- prano received a most enthusiastic re- ception. Commenting upon Mme. Lippe's singing, cne of the critics said, in part: “Mme. Lippe's number is one of the mos'. difficult in soprano literature, de- m-ading control of the singing mechan- | ism, including the breath, that not all| the lyric sisterhood es. Mme. | Lippe, who is a truly Teat artist, mlde a noble job of it, a_d sent its top C to the loftiest rafters of the Olympia.” Another critic said that her rendi- tion of “Love Death,” from “Tristram and Isolde” “revealed again her glori- ous soprano voice.” All of which is no surprise to those who attended “Tris- tram” as given by the German Opera Co. at Poli's last Winter, when Mme. Lippe was the brightest of the many singing stars. Hope Hampton Signed.

Although Miss Redell was born in Baltimore, she is habitually referred to as a ‘“native of Washington,” and should be really considered thus as she moved here with her parents when she was a very small child.

Two years of operatic successes fol- lowed in Germany—real successes, not the mildly patronizing approval of a handful of impressarios—and she was wondering whether the time hadn’t perhaps come for her to return once more to the United States when she was booked for a concert tour of South Africa. It was in this not-by-any- means-uncivilized land that her recep- tions began to take on the aspects of near riots, and she was acclaimed in Johannesburg as “the best dramatic so- prano heard in many years,” her work | “rousing an audience of 3,000 to a pm:h of enthusiasm.™ Although her successes had been in- stantaneous wherevar she went, Miss Redell felt that she owed herself a few more years of training, and after her South” African tour went to Milan to complete her studies.
