OLD And new SONGS
SUNG BY MISS TEYTE
Youthful Soprano Gives Delightful
Program at the Columbia
Tbeater.
VOICE Charms HER AUDIENCE

Miss Maggie Teyte. the youthful and re-
markable soprano. appeared at the Co.
lumbia Theater yesterday afternoon in a
most delightful program of old and re-
cent French and old English songs Miss
Teyte's career is, considering her youth,
UNUSUAL Her voice has all the finish
and technical power of a fully matured
development and the texture is fine Her
lower and middle registers are warm and
capable of great sweetness and pathos;
especially were these qualities evident in
the Prayer from La Tosca," with which
the program opened. and in "Je Pleure
en- Reve," of Hue, which she sang as
an extra number, after the group Of De-
busy songs.
The Debussy songs, five in number,
were divinely interpreted. The superb
vicor of the "Chevaux de Paris and
''Femmes de Paris" the latter given
with admiral truth of voice to the semi
coIloquial character Of the words, was
remarkable The contrast between the
harmonic and rhythmic intricacies of the
Debussy songs and the simple French
popular romances was marked. In tho
latter there is gay, careless, tender. deli
cate expression; the true flavor of the
simple romance; and these Miss Teyte
