IIKARST S SUNDAY AMERICAN, ATLANTA, GA„ SUNDAY, MAY 4. 1!)1T
11 H
B Y this time Atlanta has recov
ered from “operaltls” or what
ever the disease was that af
fected us week before last, and
all that is now left for us to do is to
think about next year, for certain it
is that Atlanta will have a week of
opera next year.
The tremendous success achieved
by Colonel Peel and the Music Festi
val Association makes it certain that
the Metropolitan Company will visit
us again. Also let it be said in pass
ing that Colonel Peel and his asso
ciates deserve much at the hands of
Atlanta for the prestige the city has
been given wherever things musical
flourish.
* * *
Giulio Gatti-Casazza. general man
ager of the Metropolitan Opera Com
pany, before sailing for Europe, in
formed us that all the old favorites
had been re-engaged and that several
newcomers in the operatic field would
be heard in New York, and therefore
Atlanta. In addition, it was announced
that to the repertoire next year will
be added at least two new operas.
They are “Mogdeleine,” a one-act op
era in English by Victor Herbert, and
Umberto Giordano’s "Madame Sans
Gene.” Others that may be presented
are "L’Amore dei tre Re,” by Italo
Montemezzi, based on a tragedy by
Benelli, already given with success at
the Scala; Charpentier’s “Julien,” if
its London premiere this spring proves
effective; Tschalkowsky’s “Eugene
Onegin,” and one of the Strauss op
eras, probably “Der Rosenkavalier.”
• * *
The stars of this year "who have
been re-engaged for next season are
as follows:
Soprani—Frances Alda, Bella Alten,
Lucrezia Bori, Anna Case, Louise Cox,
Vera Curtis, Emmy Destinn, Geral
dine Farrar. Rita Fbrnia, Olive Frem-
etad, Johanna Gadaki, Frieda Hempel,

Marie Rappold, Leonaro Sparkes and
Roslna VanDyck.

Homer, Helen Mapleson, Joanne Mau-
bourg, Marie Mattfeld. Margarete
Matzenauer and Lila Robeson.
Tenori—Paul Althouse, Pietro Au-
dislo, Angelo Dada, Julius Bayer, Carl
Burrlan, Enrico Caruso, Austin

al Opera of Berlin and Beyreuth;
Giotanni Martinelli, of Covent Garden,
the Saala of Milan and the Monte
Carlo Opera; Alfred Piccaver, an
American, of the Royal Opera of
Prague and the Imperial Opera of
Vienna.
Baritoni—Carl Schlegel, a German-
American.
* * *
An old Atlanta favorite, whose ab
sence was very disappointing this
season—Miss Geraldine Farrar—may
be among the singers to appear here
next season, but if she is she will
probably have in her train a devoted
husband. Miss Farrar, before sailing
for Europe last week, made two state
ments of extreme interest to the pub
lic. The first was that she Intended
to be married in Europe in October,
but made it plain that It is no count,
duke or prince, but a plain American,
who has won her heart. She refuse!,
however, to tell his name. The other
statement made by Miss Farrar was
to the effect that she intended to jump
from the top of the Eiffel Tower. Of
course, no one takes her seriously In
this, but it is just her little joke.
"I don’t mind telling you that I am
peevish over the publicity all these
other singers are getting,” said Miss
Farrar, “and I am going to Paris to
jump off the Eiffel Tower; then I
know I will get my name in the pa
pers.”
Asked if she thought she would be
singing as she went down. Miss Far
rar said: “I hone so.” But, mar
ried or single, satisfied or dissatisfied
with the publicity she receives, At
lanta will be waiting with open arms
to receive her next year if It can be s;
arranged that the fair Gerald*
comes here.
* * *
It is definitely settled that Miss
Farrar next year will create the title
role in Giordano’s new opera.
“Madame Sans Gene.” and It is hoped
that next season Atlanta will see this
favorite artist in this role. This
would have a double effect in bring
ing Miss Farrar here and replacing
“Cyrano—which was a grave disap
pointment—with something new.
The new opera is based on the play
of the sarr\ name dealing with the ad
ventures of the flsherwoman-duchess
at the Court of Napoleon I, which
Madaine Rejane and Miss Ellen Terry
played in this country years -ago.
Failing in getting Miss Farrar here in
this new opera, it is just possible
that she may be heard here as Car
men. It is well known that Mr. Gatti-
Casazza and Mr. Toscanini are anx
ious to have her try. and she has long
cherished an ambition to play the
part. It would be a great treat in
deed, for her Carmen doubtless would
be the sensation of the season, espe
cially if Caruso could be cast as Don
Jose.
* * *
Returning to the subject of “Cyra
no,” now that it is all over and done,
It is the almost unanimous opinion
of Atlanta that this opera, even
•though written by an American and
• in English, will not do, and will not
he heard in the repertoire to be given
h.rne next year. There arc too many
,,f the. old established operas which
have made good and which bear repe
tition year after year for Atlanta to
\
be forced to put up with so unmusical
a production as this one from the pen
of Walter Damrosch.
It was not the fault of those who
appeared in “Cyrano” that the opera
was not all that could be wished.
Pasquale Amato got everything out
of the role of Cyrano that was pos
sible. His mastery of English was
only one of many of the capable
features of his performance. He made
a splendid Impersonation, and in the
death scene he arose to a finely sus
tained tragic climax. Madame Alda
also gave the pan of Roxane a mas
terful interpretation, but these two
could not make up for the lack of
music In the opera.
• * •
Atlantans who paid large sums for
the privilege of hearing the songbirds
may be interested in knowing the sal
aries successful singers, managers and
conductors receive. Almost all are
recipients of salaries for 23 weeks’
work that far exceed the sums paid
for 52 weeks in a year to responsible
executives in commercial fields and
other professions, such as law and
medicine. Here are the earnings of
some of the stars of the Metropolitan
and Chicago Grand Opera Companies
for operatic and concert work for the
past year and for royalties for phono
graphic records they have made dur
ing the last season:

After leaving Atlanta, several of the
singers traveled down to Savannah
for the music festival given there. The
most admired of the artists In Savan
nah was Miss Anna Case. Miss Case
had little opportunity in Atlanta to
show her talent, but wherever she has
appeared she has won Instant favor
with her audience. The fine quality
of her voice is particularly suited io
the arias, her trills and staccatl being
excellently executed. Mias Case has
a repertoire which well displays her
great versatility, and the beat judges
of such things predict a great future
for this charming young woman.
...
One of the singers who appeared in
Atlanta, Putnam Griswold, has been
accorded the great honor of being
commanded to sing at the wedding of
Princess Victoria Louise, daughter of
Kaiser Wilhelm. Before leaving At
lanta Mr. Griswold displayed a cable
gram from the Emperor commanding
him to appear at this function on May
25, and also commanding him to sing
on June 25. when the Kaiser will cele
brate the twenty-fifth anniversary of
his ascension to the throne.

Miss Marguerita Sylva, the Amer
ican prtma donna, who two seasons
ago appeared with the Chicago
Grand Opera Company and who
later engaged in a short season of
comic opera with “Gypsy Love" as
a vehicle, is now' in Germany and is
winning rare laurels. Indeed, her per
formances of “Carmen" at the Grand
Ducal Opera made such an impres
sion that the Grand Duke of Meck-
lenburg-Sohwerin decorated her with
the Gold Medal of Merit. This dis
tinction Is rarely conferred on women
artists. It is a large medal, embel
lished with a bas-relief of the Grand
Duke, and bears on the reverse In
scription “fr merit,” encircled with
a wreath of laurels.
Since her triumphal debut at the
Berlin Royal Opera last Winter Miss
Syiva has sung “Carmen” In nearly
all of the leading opera houses in
Europe. Mile. Sylva’s "Carmen” was
acclaimed by Chicago critics season
before last as second only to Calve’s
dramatic quality.

An opera based upon aviation as a
theme and called “Icare” had Its first
production at Mire last week. Henri
Cain, tlie librettist, treats Icarus as
symbolical of early aviators unable to
penetrate successfully the secret of the
forces of nature and tells the story of
Icarus falling to his death from a
cliff. In his final scene the genius of
science appears and the final con
quest of the air is shown,

Though dead. Verdi remains under
the ban, it. appears, in certain parts
of Austria. At Pirano. in Istria. a
performance of "Ernan!" was recently
interdicted by the authorities because
of its being “of a nature to provoke
disorders;” while circulars Issued at
Busseto regarding preparations for
the Verdi centenary celebration hav
ing been mailed to several Italian sub
jects in Austria, were all returned to
the committee with the explanation,
'"Prohibited.”

Musical autographs commanded
some exceptionally high prices at a
recent auction sale in Berlin. The list
was headed by a manuscript by Han
del—a vocal trio with figured bass,
composed at Naples In 1708—which
brought over $7,000, according to The
Musical Times.
For a fragment of a quartet by
Beethoven a little over $1,000 was
paid. A mazurka by Chopin changed
hands for $160; Liszt’s “Rigoletto”
Paraphrase was sold for $105, and
sketches for Haydn’s Symphony in D
Major went for $125. Two letters of
Mozart\s addressed to his father were
acquired by the Muslkhlstorischee
Museum of Cologne for $423.

I Inman Interest Stories of
Atlanta Club Women
By ANN TEEK
1 th
HERE are tragedies in life
hat far exceed the greater
ones where Death Is King, or
Loss is oppressor," said a club woman
whose sympathy is ever responsive
to woe. “I once knew a dear old
gentleman at Macon, who needed a
pair of spectacles very badly. Soon
after he broke his lenses, a well
known jeweler offered a prize of a
spensers for the various camps, and
finally escorted the wife of the Gov
ernor through the beautiful grounds
and on to the carriages awaiting the
party at the gate. Mr. Orchard never
saw that picture. It was shown in
many towns in Texas and Georgia,
and everybody that knew Mr. Or
chard saw it and recognized him, but
the picture was never shown in the
pair of fifteen dollar gold mounted Texas town In which It was made.
glasses to the one who could write
the name of their firm the greatest
number of times on a postal card. The
old gentleman who was up in his
eighty second year, decided to try for
the prize He was an expert penman
and in the two weeks allowed the
contestants, he succeeded in writing
the firm-name fifteen thousand times
on the card, each stroke of the pen
standing out as distinctly as a copy
plate, and easily read with the naked
eye.
“The day arrived for the contest to
close. Every card was turned in, but
“That night the sheriff closed the
shop and the business was at an
end. The next day the old gentleman
saw his card exhibited In the window
of the Jewelers show, but he never got
his glasses. Now to my mind his
disappointment was a tragedy.”
• • •
“Well," said another club woman, “I
know' a tragedy equally as sad. When
the Confederate Veterans met out in
Texas last year, there was a movie
film man taking pictures of the en
tertainment at teh Governor’s Man
sion. The Confederate Veterans of
Augusta had sent a fine representa
tion from their camps headed by' Bel
ton Orchard, a former resident of At
lanta. When the picture man arrived
on the scene, Mr. Orchard was given
the leading role in the picture, sit
ting on the Governor’s front veranda,
and receiving the guests as they
passed in line before him. He dis
tributed carnations to the young
I think that was a tragedy. To be in
a movie of all things and not see one
self would almost kill me.”

“If you remember the dearest, cut
est liltle theater ever opened to
the fashionables of Atlanta, then you
have a picture of the Rhode Hill
opera house in the upper story of
their borne in Peachtree Street a
number of years ago. To take part
in the plays given by Mrs. Hill for
some pet charity was to feel a gen
uine pride, for only the creme de la
creme was assigned parts in the
little playlets rendered,” said a club
woman. “Once the play was that of
a fish-monger’s wife, made newly
rich. A woman usually asigned the
comedy parts was to take the leading
part. Among the Jew’elry contributed
to her adornment by the other play
ers was a rhinestone necklace belong
ing to Miss Mollie Courtney.
“The necklace made a brilliant
show, and next day, as Miss Court
ney was to leave the city before the
necklace could be returned the fish
monger’s wife packed it carefully
aw’ay In her trunk and there it re
mained for several months. In the
lady’s employ was a mulatto named
Rena. Rena contracted consumption
and had to leave service. In time
she died, and about that time the
necklace was found to be missing.
It could not be found, but the mis
tress never suspected Rena. Two
years afterwards, Sarah, a sister to
Rena was taken into the same home,
and one day while recalling the sad
demise of Rena, she told of how beau
tifully Rena was buried, in a white
robe and with a diamond necklace,
and no one in the family ever knew
where she got it.
“The fist monger’s wife knew, but
she did not overshadow Sarah’s pride
In her sisters burial, by hinting at
theft. And. I know," concluded the
club woman, “if there had been a
Sherlock Holmes in Atlanta at that
time, or a Grace Burton and a
Stephen Pry do, that rhinestone neck
lace would never have been buried
out at Southview cemetery.”

Mrs. Ethel Hillyer Harris, D. A. R.
of Rome tells the following humorous
story of an old negro man servant
in her fathers family .'
“One morning Ben came to me and
said, 'Miss Ethus, 1 is gw in' rebate
at de club Sadday night. I wan’yo* t*
write me a paper on de question,
which is de bes’to have, Money or

myself what Moils were. I asked
Ben what they were after awhile.
“‘Moils is Moils, Miss Ethus,’ an

“Next time I saw' Ben I asked him

Daughter of Local Stock Dealer Well Received
in Recital Given in New York.
Another Atlanta girl has braved the
musical critics of New’ York and has
made good. The girl is Mamie Hays,
daughter of C. F. Hays, a stock deal
er, of 684 Highland Avenue. Until
three years ago she lived in Atlanta,
and was known for her ability to sing.
She appeared several times In con
certs at the Auditorium.
Then, encouraged by her local suc
cess she went to New York to study.
She will return home probably in
June, although it is likely that she
later will back to New York to
complete her musical education.
Miss Hays cherishes dreams of a
professional career, which includes
operatic or concert work. Her work
so far, however, during all her six
years as 4 a student in Atlanta and
New York, has been that of a striving,
promising amateur. But a few' nights
ago shfc Was given her chance and
the critics iriimedlately pronounced
her a genius.
Of her recognition in New York
a musical journal published in that
city has this to say:
“Mamie Hays, from Atlanta, Ga.,
who has been studying ‘voice for the
past few years under one of New
York’s noted vocal teachers, «ang re
cently at a private musical© and made
a marked success, b^irig repeatedly
encored. Miss Hays sang David’s
“Charmant Oiseau” and songs by Hal-
lett Gilbert© and Mary Helen Brown,
in all of which she displayed a well-
trained voice of beautiful quality, w’ell
developed technical skill and excellent
ptyle and taste.”
shortly after the Hippodrome had
given warning of the imminent ap
pearance of “the Chinese Caruso,”
who obviously must have been a
“Yellow Caruso.” There would still
seem to be an opening for greens and
violets In Carusos.
* * *
Silas G. Pratt, the veteran Ameri
can composer, has just completed the
composition of a symphonic poem en
titled “A Tragedy of the Deep.” The
story, told in music, has to do with
the sinking of the Titanic one yea 1 *
ago. There are four episodes in the
work—“The Departure,” “The Dawn
of Day on the Peaceful Sea,” “The
Life on the Lower Deck, Dance in the
Grand Salon, the Disaster” and "The
Apotheosis.”

Once when George Hamlin was ten
or soloist in a large Chicago church i:
was announced from the desk that all
who had subscribed to the church
fund were urged to complete their
payments soon as possible, so that
the books could be balanced at the be
ginning of the new year—only a few
weeks distant.
At the conclusion of the announce
ment carne the solo. Mr. Hamlin had
chosen a sacred song by Wade, and
when he began singing "Then, Lord,
shall I fully know, Not till then, how
much I owe,” the entire appropriate
ness of the selection struck every
one, and a wave of amusement, almost
resembling a titter, marred the solem
nity of the occasion.

Horner Norris, the organist at St.
George's, tells a story to illustrate the
kindly side of the late J. Pierponl
Morgan’s nature. Mr. Norris had
written a new Te Deum, and after the
church service in which he used It for
the first time he met Mr. Morgan in
the vestibule. In the course of a little
talk he asked the financier how he had
liked the Te Deum that morning.
"Not so well as last Sunday’s," re
plied Mr. Morgan.
“I am sorry," the organist said, “fo.-
I wrote it.”
It was two or three months befora
he played that Te Deum again, but or
the morning he did so Mr. Morgan
waited for him after the service espe.
daily to tell hltn how much he like!
the Te Deum he used that day.

Attllln di Creszeno, tenor of the
Palma, Italy, Opera Company and of
the Montreal < tpera Company, has
been engaged by Max Rabinoff to
.sing the role of Benetto in "II Maes
tro di Capella," that will be present
ed on the brief tour next fall of Sig.
Pini-t'orsi. principal basso buffo of
the Metropolitan Opera Company in
New York. Sig. Greszeno has net er

is said to be a tenor of extraordinary
uualUv. The Pini-Corsi tour will]
start on Septembei 38 rod last oi\)\

Paderewski has just completed a
series of concerts in the cities of his
native Poland, where the usual suc
cess has been his fortune. He has
played in Cracow. Lemburg, Posen
and Warsaw to enormous houses. The
receipts of the.se Concerts, amounting
in each case from *3,500 to *5,000, he
gave to local charities or monumental
funds, deducting only the local ex
penses of the concerts. Before going
to Poland he played with the Gewand-
haus Orchestra in Leipsic, ■ with Nl-
kisch as the leader. It was his first
appearance in Leipsic and Ills suc
cess has been the chief sensation of
the season there. Although there is a
strict rule in the Gewandhaus against
encores, he was forced to play five of
them before the audience would let
him dopart. The musical public in
Germany is now asking whether he
will renounce the resolution made
over 20 years ago never to play again
in Berlin.
