EUgIish Grand Opera in America

Is but an ofshoot from the superb artistic
structure which the great masters OF the ltal-
ian school have spent well nigh three centuries
in rearing. Yet England and America have
furnished some great artists to the operate
profession. and al least two great composers
have been Englishmen.
The history of grand opera In America has
been comparatively short, but remarkably
brilliant. Indeed, no organization IN any land
ever presented the masterpieces Of the great
composers in such a thoroughly artistic manner
or with equal sumptuousness OF environment
and invesIiturs as characterized The nOtaoe
performances given by the Inflated American
Opera Company, which was organized by that
gentle and liberal amateur, MRS. Jeanette NJ
Thurber, now nearly a decade ago. But even

the charm of Herrmann's entertainment lies not
so much In the elaborate mechanical and light
