eer ET. bs Reena ete _ ORONO TEE REGIE LEE III IN THE REALM OF MUSIC “Snegourotchka” Has can Premiere at the Metropolitan. By Frank H. Warren. & Once upon a time—tast night there lived in a not (ar away land @ famous Impresario named Gatt Casazza. He was accustomed to en tertain the people of his city with music and was forever on the look- out for ‘heir welfere. Now it chanced that hundreds of years before there had dwelt in distant Ru a beauti ful Snowmaiden called + ka whose life was so strange lonely that a musician of that coun try embodied her charms and experi- ences in lovely, native music. This ouroteh = and music for many years continued to delight the t puntrymen and its fi the ears of the far away Impresario, so that he began to stir uneasily in his reper- toire and would not be satisfied until he had given it to his own people It happened about that time that in a Western city the Impre of the sario’s country there lived a rival ario named Mary, Queen of She planned a visit to the Impresario’s domain, and, s0/ great was the stir made over her coming, one would think it was an- other Queen of Sheba set on a visit to King Solomon. So, out of compli ment to her and her retinue. decided it was proper to do some fit- ting thing, wherefore he gave orders to his musicians, his singers, his players, his ballet, his chorus, his scene painters and his conductor to} make ready a magnificent represen- tation of the famous legend “Snegou- rotchka.”” Then, in obedience to the royal command, a great artist, Boris Anid- feld, constructed five of the most fanciful, colorful and gorgeous scenes that the Impresario’s huge play- house had ever seen, with wonderful costumes to match. The ImpreéBario ransacked iis list of singers to por- tray the various parts, and his ballet mistress, Rosina Galli, devised fan- tastic steps and evolutions for her as- sociates, that included ten little chil- drén dressed as midgets with long white whiskers, who, on the night of the performance, made everybody laugh until you would have thought they would burst. To one of the im- perial conductors, Bodanzky, the Im- presaeio gave a pair of immense scissors and told him to cut the bes Amerie) {hat his Gatti | perypuet Veena teeensee neem eet 4 THE EVEN eople would not leave until the entertainment was © Bo. Ydanzky did as his master command led, and when he was through it is probable that the far away Russians would not have recognized their own fairy tale Now the real Snegourotehka, in the legend, was the daughter of King Winter and Fatry Spring, and a | wicked person at her birth had fore liold that if ‘ever a sun's ray should tall upon her she would melt away « pretty situation for a-girl to face through life. One would imagine that London was the proper place for her to live. Snegonrotehka, after many strange sdventures, fell In love with a Mer chant Prince, very rich and every thing, and fust when she was about to be married the horrid sun came out on the very spot where she was standine and she disappeared, show ing that you can never be sure of inything, even of life, To imp ynate Snegourotehka the Impresurio cled one of the pret tiest and daintiest damsels in his realm, Her name was Lucrezia Bori and Spanish blood ran in her veins But she doffed hee warm Southern temperament and donned the icy inantle of the North, so she could comfortably face Boreas, the north | wind, and for all we know, that may be how she came to be catled Bori Nobody could have been more charm- ing than little Luerezia as Snegou- rotchka, In her short, snowy dress, | white stocRings and long braids she flitted in and out of the wondrous Stage settings, singing her’ bits in a plaintive mannet, until everyone in the audience fell in love with her, and many were inclined to cry when the sun ate her up, Her merchant lover was Laurenti, who had a bari- | tone voice that few matdens, snow or | real, could scarce resist. Her mother | was Miss Telva and her stern father | Mr. Rothier. Mme. Delaunois was Lel, a shepherd, who eefused to be jattracted by Snegourotchka's charms, which caused that lady considerable embarrassment, and Yvonne D'Arle, whose name is pretty enough in it- self, was Koupava, whom Lel did like. | Miss D'Arle had @ nice part, and, for & beginner, pleaséd the people with her singing. Orville Harrold, in a ‘emendous beard, was the fatherly Czar who ruled the country, and the ten little midget dancers all looked like so many Harrolds. Others who \helped were Mmes. Howard and An- |thony and Messrs. Bada, a very funny person; Paltrinieri, D'Angelo, Meader, Reschilian and Audisio.

He was a fine looking, re- sentful Samson, and, dramatically, pitched the opening act in a restless key that the chorus took up and made much of. He put vim into the somnolent libretto and sang, of course, with consumate style. The fopera needs two great artists to make it effective, and Mme. d'Alveres, contralto, who sang on the same stage in the Hammerstein regime, was the other, Her Delila was an +x-| cellent piece of work, except for a tendency to miss the pitch. Her Song of Spring in the first act reeked with color, expression and feeling, and her delivery of the famous second act aria, “My Heart at Thy Swe: Voice,” was another extraordinary singing effort. Both her make-up and that of Mr. Muratore were works of art. The audience was large and en- thusiastic.
