New-York tribune., 1910-12-18

It seems an anomaly that the COM
poser OF gnome and fairy operas should
have come from the land where those
small folk abound TO country which is
accused of having neither fairies nor any
belief i'm them. and should have come
here for the purpose of giving the pre-
mere of his latest fairy work Yet so it
is. Herr Professor Engelbert Humper-
dincl entered the Hotel Astor in digni-
fed leisure the other day and was es-
corted to the red sitting room to grant
a private interview to a Tribune repre-
sentative on the subject of-well, an in
tricate subject-himself.
interviewing is not an art or pastime
that IS heavily INDUCED in in Germany
and the professor felt as though there

further TO explain that Herr Humper

that has happened man does not think at

are controlled and are fun of color and
melody, OF imagination and of hope To
create this state of mind in music gives
one a vast and subtle field. All of this,
of course, can be thrown against a back
ground of myth. or legend, fairies,
gnomes or what you like. l mean the
story of the opera can he wholly fanci-
ful so long as the people and their moods
and feelings are wholly human"
It is easy to see why Humperdinck is
called in Germany the modern Wag-
ner."
In composing" he went on, Il prefer
the major to the minor note. That is,
not only in the musical sense. but in the
philosophical. l prefer realism to heroics
and an upward rather than a downward
pull in the mood 1 create.
In the German follsongs there is
much good material for the composer. In
them one can get close to the heart OF
the people and can understand their i'm
pulses. Folksongs have great dramatic
value, too. They are very picturesque
often full of but little known historic
lore and suggest good stage settings.
"I used some in Die K6nigskinder,' my
new opera which I have come over to
produce But many little airs and
themes in this work that sound like folk
songs are not genuine ones, but are my
own composition. l cannot work with
folk music much without wanting to
compose some of it myself and 1 have
made numbers Of songs. They come to
me as an expression of some conditions
of life.
You cannot guess my enthusiasm for
Shakespeare. He has much Of the folk
richness in his plays. l have read every
one and have written incidental music
to The Midsummer Nights Dream AS
You Like It The Merchant of Venice
and others. Also l have composed 10
many of his little songs that occur in
the plays. The words are delightful and
wholly suggestive of music. 1 cannot
read them without feeling myself swing
right into simple harmonies."
DO you think Shakespeare the great
est of all dramatic writer's
Yes, the greatest of all time. No one
has ever written so deeply"
At this moment Frau Professor Hum
perdinck came in, with cheeks red from
the wind.
You speak Of Shakespeare" she IN
quired. -'Ach, he has read every one Of
those plays, and in English, And do you
believe it. so have / Almost every Ger
man knows a. good deal Of Shakespeare,
though. It is a national habit. I believe
we appreciate him more than the En~-

the professor, picking up the thread

yet I found no dif1o in impressing
them with my ideas. Rc-ween artists there
is an instructive sympathy and understand
ing that renders mere speech unnecessary.
I acted out what I wished them to do-a
shrug of the shoulder, a motion with the
arms, and they generally understood"
What consider most remarkable is the
repose that they learned in their action.
American frontiersmen are outwardly a
phlegmatic lot, and the Latins who We're
on the stage were naturally anything but
this For them to gesticulate was as
natural as to talk or to eat. In addition
they had been appearing constantly IN
operas IN which gesticulation and constant
movement were specially taught. Under
these conditions it might be expected that

whose sympathies extend everywhere,
from the most practical details of stage

be understood by those who look little

New-York tribune., 1910-12-18

AS The Tribune's representative rose
to take his leave he glanced once more
about the apartment. With all his
keen insight into human nature and his
ability as q psychologist, Mr.. Belasco is
ever the dreamer. One corner of his studio
is devoted to relics of the great Napoleon.

through an opening in the stable.
Water is supplied in the same way.
A board walk, about one foot wide
and 211s feet high, is placed along the
outside of the breeding pen. The at
tendant stands on this walk and drives
the bull back into the stable after the
COW has been served. For convenience
of taking the bull out of the Enclosure,
door is put into the front of the
right-hand end of the breeding pen
While bull can be managed In a
pen such as is here described without
coming in contact with him, it is best
to lead him out occasionally with a
stick snapped into the ring of his
nose. It is always we'll to keep bull
accustomed to being led with stick.
