ENRY HADLEY'S one-act opera “Bianca,” with which recently,in open competition, he won the $1,000 prize offered by William Wade Hinshaw, got its first public perform- ance at the Park Theatre last night. It was produced by the Society of American Singers of which Mr. Hin- shaw is president. Grant Stewart, the writer of the libretto, found. his interpretation in Carlo Goldont’s com- edy “The Mistross of the Inn,” re- membered by patrons of the theatre for the vivid impersonation of the heroine by Mme Duse, The operatic text that Mr. Stewart involved from it @eemed unconsciously dry and spiritiess, despite the sturdy English words he used, which were sturdily and clearly enunciated by all who took part, The story ts a trifle Bianca's father, dying, bequeaths to her the Inn with the hope that she will wed Fab- ricio, his faithful servitor, The self- willed young woman balks because Fabricio does not mako himself hor master, He is too much in love with her, | “Two idly disposed noblemen appears, a brusque woman hater, in action a Petruccio, Bianca is halt inclined to the latter, but when Fab- riclo stops @ ducl that is under way by the smash of an ironing board and shows hia masterfulness she faljs into his ar Mr, Hadley ts to be congratulated upon a stirring finale in the accepted grand opera style, a fine combination of voices and instruments that arouse the house to a demonstration. If this seems like putting the cart before the horse jt can't be helped. It is the supreme moment in Mr, Had- ley’s opera, The score discloses the composer's thorough musicianship. As in most modern works, the orchestra is the protagonist and in the‘carry- ine on of the story there is a faithful- ness to text that involves indifference to melody, This do: t mean that there are not mom« of suavity phrases that entrance, There are. But between them are many intervals that mpel respect rather than foster lik~ The prelude is a dainty and arming bit of writing. Some time elapses after the curtain rises before the singers get an oppor- tunity to display their lyric voices, A trio is the first to attract attention, Then a lovely cansonotta for Bianca. After that pricio and the three noblemen get their chance, and. in- terest grows until the climax is reached, Maggie ‘Teyte was a charming Bianca, lovely to the eye as well as to the ear, and in action graceful, sprightly, teasing and tender. A cap- ital Fabricio was Carl Formes in voice and in impersonation, Henri Scott, as the woman hating dol Ruggio, looked the part and sang sonorously, Craig Campbell was D’Amalfi, and Howard White was raimonte, Mr, Hadley, of course, conducted his own opera.
