excited about it,awakening prurient
desires and not satisfying curiosity,
| will tell you what it is:
The French singer, Aimee, used
TO be a girl in a concert saloon in
Rio Janeiro She is a bright, viva
cious, impudent, pretty actress,
with a good bust, trim feet, and all
the propensities for that burlesque
opera which has been conceived in
the fantastic and extravagant fancy
of Frenchmen. The Paris Com
mune ordered Aimee outside the
walls, as an evil influence. She
has since been singing over this
country.
The theory Of opera bouife is to
combine the sweet and pathetic
with the vulgar and skeptical to
reveal the composer at his best, yet
to make him less at his work, as if
talent was cheap and the artist
could afford to despise it. Jacques
0ffenbach is the most notable of
these composers his music, pert
and easily remembered, like negro
minstrel's songs, is heard all over
the world. His less known imita-
tors copy and exceed his license,
and two of them, Samie and
Norice, have written words to some
very pretty music by Leon Vasseur,
the whole product called "The
Silver Cup" or ola Tlmbale
d'Argent."
