If there were more refinement of terpsichorean art in last night's exhibition, it served only to make vice ntore alluring. The occasion was” the first production tn~ America of Richard] Strauss’s music drama, “Salome,” which had its premier performanee in Dresden-in-the svinterof1905.— Since then-several European cities seen it,and more are clamoring to see it, for seldom has a comp heen so widely discussed, acclaimed and denounced, and public curiosity | must be assuaged. z FEARFUI, IMPORT OF THE STORY. -———Oscar Wilde's story furnished the inspiration 40 the revolutionary} German composer, and, in the opinion of the writer, no such baldly lewd, salacious, brutal, terrifying exposition of human nature at its worst has been disclosed at a theatre. Strauss’s :score emphasizes it at every point, “It is truly of fearful import. The senses by_tums are enthralled, stuised-and-stunned. —The-soul-is-outraged, the gorge is caused to rise not alone because of the. spoken word andi the living act upon the stage, but by the devilish Ingenuity with which the innermost secrets“ of the heart and mind of the participants are laid bare by the orchestra. No de- j tail is spared. It is as if some barbaric Titan, to whom all wickedness is —known,-were sinning in -the-face_of-Decency_and-holding it-fascinated- for none who listens can escape the lure and spell of this appatting-exhibi tion of genius: = - SS c As a Musical Composition The Work Is Stupendous Viewed solely from the point of view m splendid help to the unfolding of the of music, ome’ {3 a stupendous | story.
