OPERA IN ENGLISH.

I'VE have always been believers in and
opponents OF opera IN English. said MI
Aborn. and the Century opera Company
will be devoted largely TO TINS idea. OPP
era IN English Will be given every day of
the week except on Monday evening,
when opera will be given in the language
n which II was written. We viii run
,ne opera through the week. If We open
With Aida" as We probably shall, II Will
be given on Monday in Italian, and ON all
,ther days in English. The week. how
sver. will begin on Tuesday. the Monday
performance being the last one OF that
particular opera.
I'VE believe in running each opera for
4 week. as our experience has been that
the public likes an opera il goes home
and tells its friends, who. If the same
opera continues. take the advice given
them and come to the theatre. II the
oil is constantly changed they become
confused and resent II. We believe that
the great public wishes It's opera IN the
.ernacular. SO that il can understand what
5 happening on the stage. OF course.
MANY of the translatiOns are clumsy. and
&C are TO make an effort TO remedy this
fault. As TO dictiOn. there is no reason
hat singers should not pronounce Eng
ish perfectly. and for this we are to es-
lablish conservatory in the Century
Theatre where We will employ teachers
FOR diction. dramatic action and singing.
We shall continue the predominance Of
performances of opera in English, unless
The public shows that il prefers opera IN
he original language. in which case We
.hall give II what il wishes

This is the original view of the tar

the American and German methods of

In Germany the Kaiser has economic
experts from the universities to draw

men arc not politicians and are UNI
prejudiced. When they have done their
work the schedules are submitted to
the tse!chstag, or German Parliament
which, being wholly under the Kai-

his behest Thus Germany gets a ben
