After all these years of familiarity, one ma pair of fin@ing an audience that shall wait until the real, not the seeming, end for the proper opportunity to show appreciation, Dinh Gilly was admir- able as Silvio and Bada was Beppe. Sturani conducted. Humperdinck's fascinating fairy opera, Dut on for the first timé this year and Presented ne: better, ran through the first of its three scenes with almost no- dedy in the boxes. Bella Alten and Marie Mattfeld as the two children were inimitable, the former singing with some new grace, it seemed to the writer. Al- bert Reiss made the witch a most sin- jeter being and danced over the broom- jok as almost no woman could. Henri- etta Wakefield and Anna Case were charming as the Sandman and the Dew- man. Florence Wickham has grown inte the part of Gertrude, and Otto | Gorits's Peter ts one of his best crea- tions. Alfred Hertz conducted at his | beat. THE FLONZALEY QUARTET; THREE AFTERNOON CONCERTS. The Flonzaley Quartet gave the first | of its season's concerts at Carnegie Lyceum last night and charmed a large | audience by beautiful playing. The pro- | gramme consisted of Haydn's quartet in @ major, op. 17; Maurice Ravel's quar- tet and Boccherini's quartet in A major. Each number was presented tn admir- | able fashion by the four accomplished musicians who make up the quartet— A@olfo Bett!, Arst violin; Alfred Pochon, @econd violin; Ugo Ara, viola, and Iwan D’Archambeau, ‘cello. In the afternoon there were no less than three concerts, at which not even @ music reviewer who was a Marathon runner could be present throughout. At Ramfort Hall Arthur Whiting, at the harpsichord, gave one of his fascinating unlversity recitals of seventeenth and and eighteenth century music, assisted by Constance Edson, violinist; George Barrere, flautist, and Paul Keefer, viola 4a gamba. @ programme included a sonata in jor by ( relli, for violin, flute and harpsichord; a sonata in D major for | viola da ba and harpsichord and four dances for {.e harpsichord alone by Bach; a sonata for flute and/ harpsichord in B minor by Handel and & concluding sonata by Purcell for all four instruments that was delicious, @imultaneously, George Harris jr, an American tenor, gave recital at the Harris Theatre at which he disclosed @ voice of quality, well trained, that | Pleased an audience of fair size. Verdi, Schubert, Mozart, Strauss, Brahms, Wolf and Massenet songs were on his, programme. He was especially happy | in an air from the latter's “Manon” and | he delivered three songs in Engilsh by | Hammond, Mary Salter and Cadman with admirable diction. H!s accompanist at the plano was Walter Kiesemetter. At the Belasco Theatre, ret Huston gave a song recital accompanied if by Richard Hageman at the piano, Her| programme embraced songs by Kaun, Reger, Strauss and Debussy, but all the writer heard were some’ Irish folk gongs archly and effectively rendered, that furnished no opportunity to judge of her voice.
