Dr Baetens, seeing the gradual drift to higher forms of art, very wisely discus Wagner's immortal creation, singer,” in a manner entirely within comprehension of the laity. “DIE MEISTERSINGER." There ore two looking at “Die Melstersinger.” It can be weighted with a ymbolical, and even autoblographic charac ter, as the extreme admirers of Wagner would have it, or it can be taken as an ex ample of pure comedy, with no greater sig nificance than that which lies on the surface of its lines and its action. The theory is that the purpose opera is to celebrate the triumph of th natural poetic impulse, stimulated by com munion with nature, over pedantic formulas and in this interpretation Walther von Stolzing ®ie youthful hero) becomes a pro- ype of Wagner himzelf, Beckmesser, of Wagner's opponents, and Hans Sachs, of en- lightened public opinion, which neither lespises rules nor is ridden by them. Eng. lish and French critics have spoken of the want of humor In the work. Objections of this kind are nothing more than publications of the imperfect ideal of comedy held by those writers. The book of “Die Melster- singer” is not filled with the ingenious verbal plays and innuendoes in which the Frencl delight, nor the broad farcical conceits to which ‘some would restrict comedy on the Euglish stage. Yet there is fun enough in it to keep one's sides relaxed, if ons will but look in the right direc- tion for it In its delineation of character it is Shakespearean, and although a Die Meister- d the r ways of Nk of the d fr v, e n, n, d n- in t- 58 s this week | its fun is a little brutal (as becomes the people and period with which the play deals) it is not at all malicious, and is always morally healthy. It deals with the manners 1d follies and vices of the masses. It aims primarily to amuse, and only ultimately to chastise. Both ends are admirably accom- plished in this play, even though the special meaning be denied 'it. As a picture of the social life of a quaint German city three centuries ago, its vividness and truthfuln are_beyond all praise, it is worthy to stand beside the best dramas of the world, and has no equal in operatic literature. The food for its satire, too, Is most admirably chosen, for no feature of the social life of that period and place is more amiably absurd than the efforts of the handicraftsmen and trades peo- ple with their prosaic surroundings to keep alive, by dint of pedantic formulae, the spirit of minstrelsy which had a natural stimulu in the chivalric life of the troubadours and minnesingers. In his delineation of the pompous doings of the mastersingers, Wagner is true to the letter. The plot is simple in the extreme, but every one of its incidents is a photograph of a bit of old Nuremburg folk life. Veit Pogner, a rich silversmith, desiring to honor the craft of the mastersingers, to whose guild he belongs, offers his daughter Eva in mar- riage to the successful competitor at the an- nual meeting of the mastersingers on the Feast of St. John. Eva is in love (she de- clares it in the impetuous manner peculiar tc Wagner's heroines) with Walther von Stol- zing, a young Franconian knight, and the knight with her. After a pantomime in church, during the interludes of the chorale he meets her before she leaves the building and learns that the maiden Is indeed be trothed, but to the unknown victor of the mnorro’ ‘Walther resolves to enter the guild 50 as to be qualified for the competition, Th trial of candidates takes place in the church in the afterncon, and Walther, knowing noth- ing of the rules of the mastersingers, falls, though the cobbler poet, Hans Sachs, recog- nizes evidence of natural genfus in the youth's song, and espouses his cause, ax against Beckmesser, the town clerk, who aims at acquiring Pogner’s fortune by winning bis daughter. The young couple, in despair at Walther's failure, ‘are about to elope when they are prevented by the arrival on the scene of Beckmesser. It is night and he (Beckmesser) wishes to serenade Eva, Sachs sits cobbling at his bench, while Eva's nurse, Magdalen, disguised, sits at the window to hear the seremade. Sachs interrupts the clown by lustily shouting a song, but finally agrees to listen to Beckmesser on condition that he. be permitted to mark the erorrs of composition by striking his lapstone. The humorous consequences can be imagined. Beckmesser becomes en raged at Sachs, sings more and more falsely until Sachs is occupied in beating a veritable tattoo on his lapstone. To add to Beck messer's dizcomfiture, David, an apprentice of Sachs, and Magdalen's sweetheart, thipking the serenade Intended for his love, begins to belabor the singer with a club. Neighbors unite and foin in the brawl, which is finlly interrupted by the horn of the night watch- man. The music of this scene is crowded with comical effects, which, unfortunately, are not so obvious that the musically illiterate are sure to perceive them, such as the tu- ning of Beckmesser's lute, the strange har- mony created by the sound of the watchman's horn, ete. The dignity and vigor of Wagner's poetical fancy are attested by the marvelous close of the & The tremendous hubbub of the street brawl s at its height and the business of the act is at an end. The coming of the watchman, who has evidently been aroused by the noise, is foretold by his horn. The crowd is seized with a panic. All disappear behind doors, which are quickly barred, The sleepy watchman stares about in amazement, rubs his eves, sings the monotonous chant which publishes the hour of the night, con- tinues on his rounds, and the moon shines on & qulet Nuremberg street as the curtain alls. In the third act Walther and Eva have come to Sachs for advice. Walther sings a recital of a dresm and Sachs, struck by Its beauty, transcribes it, punctuating the pauses with bits of comment and advice. Beck- messer, entering Sachs' shop during his ab- sence, finds the song, concludes that it s by | Sachs and appropriates it. Sachs, discover- ing the theft, presents the song to Beck- messer, who, securing a promise from Sachs not to' betray him, makes up his mind to sing It at the competition.

Differ- | | ing between his power of melodic invention and his power of execution, they find that while the former may have reached Its climax in “Lohengrin” and the latter in “‘Siegfried,” the bhappiest union of both was effscied in Die Meistersinger.” It I8 nevertheless to be feared that great stumbling blocks lie in the way of “Die Meistersinger” becoming really popuiar with the native American ele- ment of our population. Genuine apprecia- tion of its excellence is conditioned on & keener sympathy than is likely to be de- veloped here with the characters and inoi- dents exhibited (for which America has not yet a parallel in its history), and a better knowledge of music than is prevalent among our people at the present time Much of the music of the opera that has been heard here | in concert rooms s honestly admired, but the music which accompanies the dialogue 18 written In strict conformity with Wagner's in r- | te ty | is making wrrangements for an inter- | festival.
