The many inquiries which are being
made are evidence of the keen inter-
est which the coming presentation of
the melodrama of "Enoch Arden" by
Richard Strauss, is awakening. The
novelty of such production to Ho-
nolulu audience, the renown of the
composer, who is the greatest of the
present day, and the high regard in
which Miss Clarke and Mrs. Water
house are held, ensure a large and ap-
preciative audience.
The work, although fundamentally
simple, is distinctly psychological, APP
pealing to the intellect as well as the
emotions. The best preparation for
the audience for an intelligent hearing
is careful reading of the old Tenny-
son poem, in order that a true appre-
citation may be had when the various
themes, representing the setting of the
story, the characters and the blending
of the lives, ct cetera, are introduced.
Strauss has employed the most ex-
quisite changes and modulations in
these themes, making it fascinating to
listen fer their recurrence and its sig
nificance as regards the development
of the story.
The College Club, under whose aus
pieces the affair is to be given, are
most fortunate in having Miss Clarke
in the piano part. As an intelligent
and artistic interpreter of Strauss
music, she is not surpassed here. Hei
rendering of the extremely difficult
Sonata with Mrs. ingalls,, at the lat,
ter's recital, is evidence of her powers
in this line. Frank expressions Of
pleasure are heard on all sides, at the
prospect of again hearing Mrs. Water.
house in public.
The tickets for the melodrama which
