The gondoliers is the tenth of a series of comic operas Given to the world by messes. Gilbert and Sullivan and in it they have reverted to the lighter and More farcical manner which for a time they had quilted. In Point of fact the opera is written in the style of the the Story being farcical and its treatment in or. Gilbert s Well known whimsical manner while the music is of the lightest and brightest pc Bible character. In one reap Job however the gondoliers differs from All its never before has sir Arthur Sullivan revelled in the humorous in music rarely before have there been to few specimens of the drawing room Anop style and never until Thia opera saw the Light of Day had he so fully utilized the vast store of dance and other National music. In the gondoliers we indeed have from time to time not Only More or less closely imitated specimens of the English part song or Ballad but the composer has also borrowed from France the stately Gavotte from Spain the andalusian cach Noha from Italy the Salterella and the Tarantella and from Venice itself in which the scene of the first act is Laid the venetian bar Carolle. These Brilliant melodies were set in a Frame work of sir Arthur Sullivan s Moat refined and finished orchestrations. The Story of the gondoliers very funny und were much enjoyed. Or. Billman had what la known in theatrical circles As the fat Park he Sang of that there is to possible Shadow of with spirit and vim and was encoded. Indeed these gentlemen did Cap itally and Are worthy of equal mention for their efforts to please. The chorus in the strongest numerically the society has Ever had and it May Elso be wid that it is the prettiest. The ladies Are All daintily costumed and they danced and Sang . Of the male portion the basses Are very string but were kept under control of the conductor s Baton and they with tenors aided in no Small degree in the Success of the production. The feature of the performance was the Cachucha dance which waa neatly executed. It was loudly encoded and the audience would not be denied a repetition. The Gem of the second act in however to be found in the extremely humorous and original quartet rang by the two Young married couples while they Are attempting to discover which of tha two gondoliers has married in infancy. It starts with a solemn psalm like Melody Sung in unison by four voices upon which each soloist sings a rapid set of variations upon the theme or. To Orwell wielded the Baton with his usual skill and miss Holmes was the pianist mrs. Archer Martin and miss Mcallister wore very charming and costumes of White skirts handsomely trimmed with Gold braid and zouave jackets similarly trimmed Apple Green velvet miss Cal Violet. They bad also Rich sashes and Dainty Caps to match. Miss Mathias was attired in a Blue Satin with Black Lake trimmings and mis. Fry in a yellow Satin draped with Black Spanish lace bodice and train of Black velvet trimmed with steel pan Samen Trie Black lace Mantilla and Diamond ornaments.

A couple of the handsomest gondoliers in Venice Nave resolved to marry and permitting the girls to Blindfold their eyes have determined to let impartial Fate select for each a Piatt. This is a capital game at Blind Man s Buff in which the Busy Bustle and the laughter of the girls contrasts effectively with the solid uni Sonal chores my papa he keeps three horses Sung by the men until at last the two gondoliers catch two of the prettiest Contadino. Towards the end of the act it is discovered that one of the gondoliers is the heir to the now vacant throne of Barataria he having been brought As a child to Venice and entrusted to the cure of a highly respectable there Are difficulties in the the two venetians have already been married to the two Contadino immediately before the discovery Baa been made that one of them is King and oreo because owing i m much disposed to fear to his terrible taste for tipping that highly respectable gondolier could never declare with a mind sincere which of Tho two was his offspring dear and which the Royal Stripling i moreover in his Babyhood the real King he May be was married by proxy to the baby daughter of a grandee of Spain who Mcdam pained by his own particular private has just arrived in an impecunious and somewhat dilapidated condition. All that can be done therefore a to induce the two gondoliers to leave Venice immediately and reign jointly in Barataria until it is Dis covered which of the two is the genuine Mon Arch. In the ii cond act the comical details of this paradoxical situation Aru thoroughly grasped by or. Gilbert. The gondoliers have on becoming not entirely dissociated themselves plebeian ideas of social Equality. Consequently at the outset we find them seated on throne clean ing the Crown and sceptre complaining bit Terly that although two individuals yet on the specious plea that Ebay Are one Monarch they Are Only permitted rations fyr one. The joint monarchs however miss this wives they have left behind them in Venice who Forth with follow them shattering by inquire How they Are treated by their Hub Ecta indignantly protest against the idea of the wife who Hod been married by . Being whimsically informed that the product is two thirds of a husband to each declare that they can t marry a vulgar the Gondo hers Are by no Means at Home in their new surroundings and when the plot a cleared up and the real aspirant to the throne a discovered in the person of the grandee u attendant As he has hitherto been called the Pri vate blithely accept the situation and carry off their cd open wives Back to Venice.

It will to remembered that the society first spoke of but abandoned the idea for some reason or other and when the gondoliers was announced the selection wan subjected to u great Deal of Adverse criticism Many thinking that after the first performance u would not be a drawing and the executive of the Opp ratio society would agree with the new York manager who said the title should be changed to gone As far a he was concerned anyway. However though on the first production it did not meet with Public favor in new York it is satisfactory that it has made a hit in England and Manitoba. The performance last evening was certainly not quite up to the Standard of the operatic society largely on account of the orchestra bang weak and playing at times very badly. With regard to the cast it was pleasing to see mrs. Martin again with the society. She gave a capital rendition of the role of Gian Sang artistically her every Solo and fully deserved the applause which greeted her. My Mcallister made a piquant and also Sang sweetly.
