The stol< of IL Trovatore (The
Troubador) is as well known as are its
special numbers, dear to all lovers of
good music. The action throughout
was prompt, the well equipped and
thoroughly trained performers were
at their best in correct and handsome
costumes and the richly dressed and
cultured audience was more than
pleased There was Ia,ach applause.
There were genuine ovations for sew
eral members of the caste The pitch
of enthusiasm was developed by Miss
Montague and Mrs. w. W. Dimond.
Besides floral tributes from friends.
each of these received a personal Of
fering from Mr.. w. &. Irwin To Miss
Montague there was presented a great
wreath in which there was enclosed
Gagged singing bird. \ great basket Of
rare flowers fell to Mrs. Dimond. Miss
Bertha Young's talent was rewarded
with many floral pieces and even the
male artists were not forgotten.
Those here to whom the voice of
joy for many years as well as those
who have had the pleasure of hearing
here in grand opera and concert in
the leading theaters of the United
States and Australia were delighted
Saturday evening that her superb
voice had lost none of tone or volume.
Her clear, skillful singing held all
spell bound at times and throughout
the production was fawless as her
artistic acting.
Mrs. Dimond was a surprise and u
treat. Her voice is of superb texture
and surprising sweetness and has
come to be marvelously handled. Few
singers ever heard here or elsewhere
have acquired such absolute and ac-
curate control over the medium for
the Interpretation of a musical role.
Mrs. Dimond brought to the character
a consummate ability for acting and
her every appearance was the signal
for warm greeting, heartfelt free
offering to remarkable genius.
To Miss Bertha Young is due high
praise indeed. Extremely graceful
and decidedly pretty, this clever am
ateur brought to the part confidence,
an intelligent conception. of the char
acter and most carefully trained
voice which was used to the very best
effect. Her singing was certainly one
of the most attractive portions of the
production.
Messrs. Monteagle and Ross, the
baritone and basso of the cast were
more than excellent. Each was quite
at ease upon the stage, singing and
acting naturally and in voices amply
adequate, fully meeting all require
ments. In solos each filled the the
alter with rich notes and in the group
singing their voices were clear and
distinct
Mr.. William Levers, the tenor. was
laboring under the unfortunate dis
advantage of having severe cold.
lie was in the care of a physician up
to within a few minutes of his ap-
Pearance upon the stage. Nevertheless
his performance was most creditable.
In acting he was one of the very
strongest in the caste. His pluck m
doing so well as he did at times was
commended by ALL
