It was an evening of opera and it introduced four singers Roxo Lana Roslak Soprano Joan different and con in which the four personages combined trusted in an manner so that the audience went away Happy. One of the rather alarming advantages of broadcasting and Maxwell Mezzo Wilmer Neu recording is that discrepancies Feld Tenor Aad Cornell Opthof Bass. The Winnipeg orchestra was under the direction of Victor Feldbrill former director of the Winnipeg sym phony orchestra Don Mcgill acted As Host and introduced the various items. The program consisted largely of Well known and Well loved items. This in itself has the advantage of its direct the but it also gives the singers an added responsibility. They were singing music Well known to All through records and they were bound to be compared with illustrious members of companies like the of balance can be adjusted so that the radio or record listener is not disturbed by an imbalance. We would have preferred the Fine orchestra in the pit and the singers on stage above. But we cannot help being grateful for these excerpts which served to remind us that Winnipeg is woefully behind some smaller cities in local operatic activity. Sparse counties Kansas City counties with. Population density of fewer than mile two persons All Are West per Square of the 98th metropolitan covent Garden or the Vienna opera. In most operatic perform Ance the singers Are on the stage with the orchestra in the pit but in this performance everyone was on stage and one Felt that the singers sometimes failed to come through the welter of orchestral sound. I or. Feldbrill is a splendid operatic conductor and it was a distinct pleasure to hear him again. He has Complete control Over the ensemble and a certain sympathy sometimes not found in illustrious conductors. The purely orchestral items were the overtures to Rossini s Barber of Seville Wolf Ferrari s secret of Suzanne and the Waltzes from Strauss Der Rose Kavalier. In All of these the orchestra played very Well. The Grace and excitement of the Rossini the neat precision of the Wolf Ferrari and the warm glitter of the Strauss were finely portrayed. Miss Roslak was a Delight to hear. As Mimi in excerpts from la Boheme she produced a Lovely lyrical sound secure and always effortless. In the jewel song from Faust the kept a Lively supple rhythm. Joan Maxwell whose Transfer to Toronto was a considerable loss to music locally Sang two Arias of Mion Fernando from Donizetti s la Favorita and Mon Coeur from Saint Saens Samson it Dalila. In both she displayed her uncommon vocal gilts and sense of drama. In the Donizetti the Horn quartet was outstanding in its Richness. Or. Neufeld. Also of Winnipeg Sang in the scene from la Boheme with miss Roslak and the prize song from Wagner s die meistersinger. When he Sang earlier in the season with the Winnipeg symphony orchestra in the Nile scene from Aida his Fine vocal gifts j were noted. It was disappoint ing therefore to hear him forcing his tone in the Puccini so that hoarseness ensued. One Hopes that this was a passing indisposition because it would be a great pity if this is allowed seriously to affect his singing. In the Wagner he was most tasteful but somewhat Over Laden by the Rich orchestral texture. Or. Opthof has a Fine voice Rich and flexible with a flair for the dramatic. In Eri to from Verdi s masked Ball he was excellent. All the smouldering anguish and despair were there. He was less satisfactory in the famous Largo Al factotum where he had difficulty being heard and needed perhaps a bit More of the sparkle of the ubiquitous Barber. Of the three ducts the presentation scene from the second act of Rose Kavalier was delicious. The arching phrases j of Octavian miss Maxwell and the ecstatic soaring of Sophie miss Roslak were quite enchanting. The duet from la Favorita with miss Maxwell and or. Opthof was a bit Dull and surprisingly miss Maxwell s intonation was questionable in spots. The program finished with the popular quartet from rigoletto Meridian in the . Harold m.
