| Anton H ekking has been in this coun-
try since November and has been re-
newing the old admiration felt for his
sterling qualities. Like d'Albert. he
has persistently stayed away from
America for twelve years, during which
time he has come fully into his heritage
of ripened genius. Hekking came first

signed from the club he entered the Bos-

| D'Albert is the composer of eight
grand operas, the most recent of which
| is 'tTiefand,' which had it's initial per-
! Torrance last year with great success in
Copenhagen and has been heard in sew
eral of the greatest musical centers.
The difficulty of leaving it's production
this year in Hamburg and elsewhere to
others was one obstacle that stood IN the
way of d'Albert $ present tour. Mr..
Conried tried to get the opera last year
but could not come to an agreement
with the composer in regard to terms.
I Negotiations have been reopened since
|d'Albert's arrival, but as he did not
bring the score with him it is not likely
! that the new opera can be given this
year, but it will probably be given next
! year, as the renewed attention called to
/ the composer by this extensive concert
/ tour will increase the vogue of his work.
