FELT GRIEF HE EXPRESSED
circumstances Under Which Verdi
Produced the Sublime "Mlserere"
In al Trovatore."

Men Of genius are confessedly crea-
lures of mood. Grief and adversely
have often been a real help to them,
rather than hindrance. Poe, 1t is
said, produced "The Raven" while sit.
ting at the bedside of his sleeping but
dying wife. Many similar instances
might be cited. but an anecdote Of
Verdi. told by Carlo Ceccarelli, will
sufice.
On one occasion, when Verdi was
engaged on his well-known opera. III
Trovatore." he stopped short at the
passage OF the "Miserere," being at a
loss to combine notes of sufficient
sadness and pathos to express the
grief Of the prisoner, Manrico.
Sitting at his piano in the deep
stiffness Of the winter night, his i'm
Agtnation wandered back to the stormy
days Of his youth, endeavoring to ex-
tract from the past a plant, a groan,
like those which escaped from his
breast when he saw himself forsaken
by the world. All in vain!
One day. at Milan, he was unex.
pectedly called to the bedside of q
dying friend, one Of the few who had
remained faithful to him In adversely
and prosperity. Verdi, at the sight Of
his dying friend, felt lump rise in
his throat: he wanted to weep, but so
intense was his grief that not tear
flowed to the relief of his anguish.
In an adjoining room stood piano.
Verdi, under one Of those sudden i'm
pulses to which men Of genius are
sometimes subject, sat down at the
instrument, and there and then i'm
provised the sublime "Miserere" Of
the "Trovatore" The musician had
given utterance to his grief.
