The performance OF the lesson scene"
by Alice Nielsen and her assisting artists
at their concert here on Friday after
noon was a keen delight to music lovers.
Miss Nielsen's singing of the Arditi
waltz song. instead OF the familiar "Una
voce POGO ia was both a delight and
a disappointment. for her rendition of
the former was exquisite. The aria is
such a beautiful and famous one that
all singers looked forward TO hearing II.
Miss Nelson's encore in this scene was
the waltz. "Floriana,'' written by Miss
Cryder, who brought her here. and Miss
Ethel Tozier. both OF this city. Miss
Nielsen brought out new beauties IN the
song. A better cast for the Barber or
Seville" would be hard to ind. Their
concerted singing was exceedingly good.
