BY SYLVESTER «AWLING. rT AS RHEINGOLD" began the season's matinee cycle of “The Nibehungen Ring” at the Mot- ropolitan Opera House yesterday before the largest audience that the writer c: recall for a performance of the prc to the trilogy. That tt meant the train- ing of new admirers of the genius of Wagner was manifest by the whispering that went on during the four scenes of the continuous act of the music-drama; but It augurs well for the success of the serles, Better manners may be expected thi ut the trilogy, because of the inte sense of tradition possessed by Amertean music-lovers. If that should fall, the old guard has an effective, if @ Aisagrecable, corrective. Let us hope it Wil not be necessary to put it into use. Alfred Herts conducted an excellent Presentation of the work, to which his own genius contributed not a little of @uccess. Save for one unintended explo- sive burst of steam and the wabbling of the rainbow bridge the mechanics and the stage setting were admirable, ‘The Mlusion of the swimming Rhine maidens was well maintained and tho changes in lighting were effective. There ‘were several new members of the cast, chief of whom was Hermann Weil us ‘Weten. Mr, Well has proved his ability both as singer and actor in other parts, but he fell short of expectation in this one, His Chief of the Gods lacked some- thing of bigness and majesty. It was Mot fugged enough. It was too young / 4m facial makeup and too smartly dressed fer the careless, profligate roamer whose only virtue was that he kept his word. Margarete Matzenauer was so hand- fome @ Fricka that one could only won- der why Wotan should ever have wan- dered from his own fireside in pursuit @f other godesses. She sang well, but, Mike most of her predecessors in the part, was upholetered too much after the fashion of modern Fifth avenue vefore the era of hobbies and harem ekirts, Alma Gluck was a lovely Freia to Jook upon, carrying out the concep- tion of maidenly ingenuousness and fear completely, but a little bit doubtful in her singing. Louise Homer, as always, was Completely satisfying as Erda, and the three Rhine maldei Sparkes, Bella Alten and Florence Wick- ham—save that Miss Sparkes occasion- ally sang sharp, were excellent. Putnam Griswold, singing splendidly, and Basil Ruysdael keeping him com- pany, made a fine pair of lumbering giants. Lambert Murphy, the young New York tenor, sang Froh finely and William Hinshaw was an effective Don- ner. For the rest, there were old friends, Carl Burrian, as Loge, missing some- thing’ of tho “spriteltke qualities of the fire-god, but singing exceptionally weil; Otto Goritz in a finely dramatic imper- sonation of Alberich, and Albert Reiss, the incompurable Mime. Some day the writer hopes to compile an unvarnished story of the Ring; but whether The Evening World or any pub- Meher. will print it 1s doubtful, for never was guch an aggregation of “bad uns” Drought together, There 13 no sin on the calendar that some one of them has not committed or does not commit, Even the lofty, intellectual and lovable Brunnhilde, the best of the lot, does not Gilly as Alfio, Jeanne Maubourg as Lola and Marie Mattfeld as Lucia wero effec- tive. Caruso as Canto in “Pagliacci” fairly captivated the house by his singing of the "Rid! Pagiiacco.” Scott!, as Tonto, sang the prologue finely. Dinh Gilly was an excellent Silvio and Bada a good Beppo. As for Emmy Destinn’s Nedda, iit was superb, BONC! APPEARS AS SOLOIST AT PHILHARMONIC CONCERT.
