CARUS0 AND BOHEME DRAW
Puccini's Opera Causes Music
Lovers to Leave their Turkey.

GluHo Gatti-Casazza is evidently Of the
opinion that day of which the hours
from 1 10 were dedicated TO perform
ance Of Wagner's "Parsifal" should in
the evening receive a Tightening In the
atmosphere; that spiritual redemption
should be followed by something of a
little more sentimental appeal: that even
I'm opera there should still be cakes and
ale or rather, in this particular case, a
flet and bottle Of vim ordinaire.
So the MetrOpolitans able and astute
director selected Puccinrs "Bohame,"
with Caruso as Rodolpho. as the opera
and the tenor with which TO draw pub
lie, even from the aftermath Of its
Thanksgiving turkey. to the Broadway
house Of song. "Boheme" is not a work
requiring overmuch cogitation or mental
acuteness; its appeal is not cerebral; it
demands no skill in dialectic it is frank
ly. unashamedlv. delightfully."- unrehective
and senuous. Therefore, it is par excel
lence en- opera for Thanksgiving evening,
And a large audience was present last
night
There was, however, an added interest
in this particular performance. Miss Lu-
Crezia Bori. whose previous appearances
I'm "ManOn Lescaut" and "Pagliacci,' had
disclosed TO the public a new and prom
Using inEenue, appeared for the first time
as Mimi, a part for the last few years
practically, as far as New York was con-
Cerned, the property of Miss Geraldine
Farrar. Miss Bori was not in her best
voice last night. but her impersonation
possessed charm and unusual sincerity-a
Mimi with a heart. II is an impersona-
tion that will probably grow in popular
appeal. Mr.. Caruso was in excellent form,
and gave the "RaCconto" with fine effect.
OF the rest Of the artists a special word
should be said for the MarCello OF Mr..
Gnly, whose voice had never sounded
more resonant, and who made Of the char
actcr a living parsonage. Miss Alien was
her ever vivaCious self as Musetta. Mr..
PolacCo again allowed the orchestra an
inordnate volume Of sound, but otherwise
gave spirited reading Of the score.

Washington, Nov. 2S.-The most brilliant

ushers were Roger Sherman Boutell,

Heath, Of Boston, and Ashe stowe and
Leon F. de Fremery Of San Francisco.

YSAYE AT PHILHARMONIC
A Changed Programme and I'm
fortunate Consequences.

NJ. Ysaye was the solo performer az the
concert Of the Philharmonic Society In
Carnegie Hall last night which will be
repeated IN regular course this afternoon.
The programme notes indicated that ne
would play Bruch's concerto in G minor,
and follow It Immediately with concerto
by Corell-a proceeding which would
have been singular indeed, but was
nevertheless not quite so singular az that
which really took place. The eminent
violinist played the solo part Of a con-
ccrto in u minor by Leclair, 60 which the
strings Of the orchestra played an accom-
paniment. the general muddiness Of
which was distressfuIly augmented by an
organ part NJ. Ysaye was not in agree
ment with himself in the matter Of in
donation. nor with the orchestra, and the
organ was derelict in it's duty to both the
other factors. In consequence, a work
which might have been most interesting
and delightful was anything but that, ana
the first half hour Of the evening was
worse than wasted. The change Of pro-
gramme, the society's manager explained.
was made by NJ. Ysaye at the rehearsal
in the forenoon. which fact accounted for
some of the Cacophony but not all Of il:
for the organ would no doubt have been
an equally disturbing element had the
Corelli concerto been played.
After the orchestra had PLAYED Richard
STRAUSS symphonic commentary ON
Lenaus Don Juan" poem the Bruch con-
certo was played, but not at all in the
pure. large style Of which NJ. Ysaye gave
so splendid an eXemplihcation at his first
recital II had much romantic feeling in
II and not few flashes Of genius. but
they we're in evidence only IN the broad
lines Of the reading, not in clarity Of de-
tail-that virtue being conspicuous BY its
absence.
The orchestra developed a large sorority
and a compelling sweep in the Strauss
music after It and Mr. Strausky had
vainly tried 10 interest the audience In

cocious boy KorngOld, who in this work

symphonist are now told by the ANALYST
