Souza sang the well-knoWn Carmen Sc
lection with SO much feeling that the au-
dience applauded enthusiastically.
For his second number, De Souza sang
'Parisiamo." from YerdPs ~Rigoletto."
This solo taxes the art OF the singer In
bringing out the conflicting emotions. The
DE souza responded with The Palms"
In the chorus De Souza displayed his
marvellous powers In full measure.
The opening orchestro number was the
chestra SO rendered the; selection as to
bring to the minds Of the listeners the
varying features of the legend that has
been immortalized by Schiller.
Conductor Alfred Ernst selected Bee
thoven's Seventh symphony for the sec
ond orchestral number. Critics have been
unable to agree as to the inner meaning
OF the romantic classic, some saying that
1t represents a rural wedding. others a
masked ball, and third, Wagner, de-
claring 1t to be "the apotheosis of the
dance" The rendition OF this remark

characterized by joyousness and a mirth
that never fail to win an audience. The
closing number was Arthur Foote'S suite
in d minor.
