Musical Notes.

More than one critic In commenting re-
gretfullY on Mime. SembriChs contemplated
retirement from professional life has de
clared that the art OF pure singing is dying
out; that with the departure OF the little
pTima donna for her well-earned rest there
will be left no great exponent OF the
bel canto' school Nine. Sembrich her
self, in speaking of the changes that have
come about in singing methods, has said:
THE modern operas aim first Of all to
be sensational, while the modern com
posers bother little about the voice. They
rely upon the dramatic situation, upon
artistic personalities, upon crashing orches-
trial effects. Singing pure and simple Is
losing vogue and pity Il Is.
when 1 was a girl, while we were
taught to act, while personality WAS AL
ways a valuable asset the great art we
were forced to cultivate was singing, sing
ing, singing; first last and all the time
There were great singers all about US.
There were glorious traditions behind us.
There were teachers who knew what was
necessary for us TO do TO achieve good
singing"
