Opera Of the Plains.

#
The man or woman who has not wit
messed the rendition of the, Opera of the
Plans, cannot have thorough appre-
citation of the wonderful expression and
power Of music A brief synopsis may
be summed as follows: ,rsg, .ta sbt
The train now encamps, The un-
packing of the kettles and mess pans,
the unyoking Of the oxen, the gathering
about of various camp. fires, the frizzling
Of the pork, are so clearly expressed by
the music that the most untutored say
age could readily comprehend it. In
deed, 80 vivio ,ud lifellke was the rep
resentation that q lady sitting near us
involuntarily exclaimed aloud at GER
tain passage, "Thsr, that pork's burn
ingp' and it was truly interesting to
watch the gratifed expression Of her
face when, by few notes of the guitar,
tho pan was removed from the fire, and
the blazing pork extinguished. This is
followed by the beautiful aria, 80,
marin I want pancake )" followed by
that touching recitative "Shet up, or l
will spank you " To which succeeds a
grand crescendo novement, representing
the flight of the child with the pancake,
the pursuit Of the mother, and the final
arrest and summary punishment of the
former, represented by the rapid and
successive strokes of the castanet. The
turning-in for the night follows; and
the deep and sterterous breathing OF the
encampment is we'll given by the bas-
soon, while the sufferings and trials of
an unhappy father with an unpleasant
infant are touchingly set forth by the
comet piston.
