Rosa Ponselle, referred to by mu- | sic critics in general as the “greatest | soprano of today,” and Connecticut’s own queen .of song, will appear at the Capitol theater in Hartford, Sunday afternoon, February 19, in her annual recital under the man- ugement of Robert Kellogg. People | in Connecticut anticipate with much ( pleasure the return engagement of Miss Ponselle thia season, especially after her most extraordinary season at the Metropolitan Opera. The great success attained by Ponselle on the | stage of the Metropolitan this sea- ! son {s what hag won for her the un- | stinted praises of the music review- | ers, exciting many of them to de- clare her the “greatest soprano.” In the conoert given at the Capi- tol theater in Hartford, Rosa Pon- | selle will sing the famous aria| “Casta Diva” from “Norma. 8he wishes to give the home folks the opportunity of hearing this arfa and the Hartford concert will be the first Connecticut appearance affording the privilege. About 700 seats remain for the Ponselle concert. Tickets are on sale at. Robert Kellogg's officp, upstairs in McCoy's Music Store at 89 Asy- lum street, Hartford. PARSONS—HARTFORD. 1¢ we are to belleve advance re- ports, it, “The Clutching Claw,” which comes to Parsons’ theater this Friday and Saturday nights and a Saturday matinee, will furnish abun- dant thrills and delightful little spine shivers for the theatergoers of this ecity. It is a mystery show and is sald to differ very materially from the gen- eral output of this type of attraction seen in recent years. Spiritualism, comedy detectives, criminologists, reporters and_dope peddlers are a part of ita story and all woveén to- gether in a plot that is never lack- ing in excitement and suspense. There §s one big thrill in the show that fs declared to be one of the most hair-raising seen in recent vears.
