ITALIAN OPERA.
Madame Ger.ter in Faust.

Tho representation OF Faust" in the
Academy Of Music on Monday evening differed
from other preceding ones chiefly in the fact
that Madame Gerster was the Marguerite. and In
one or two other changes. the audience losing
Madame Lablaches admirable Martha to gain
in her an equally good Siebel.
This lady touches no small character without
lifting II at once into prominence. Her Siebel
was admirable. especially in the support II lent
to Madame Gerster by a few apparently slight
but really telling actions in tho death scene OF
Valentine
As for Nine. Gerster. she gave one Of the
most intense and dramatic pictures Of the love
and suffering Of Marguerite that We have yet
had. The church scene was rendered with a
poignant emotion such az mono but a woman OF
rare scnstbility and OF great scope OF sym
pathy and largo tenderness OF nature could
have exh bited There was. perhaps at times
lack OF power OF voice sufficient to flll and
supplement the large. strong and passionate
the lost and abandoned Marguerite: but this did
not dim the lustro OF the impeTsonntion.
~, Several points were. made by Nine. Gerster
that were both new and effective Her sobbing
and broken cries OF grief over the dead body o.
her brother. which rose above the low threnody
Of the chorus. were very thrilling In the
Jewel Song Nine. Gerster was radiant
The other impersonations In the opera have
