CAN AMERICAN OPERA =
T., EQUAL EUROPEAN COMPOSERS

Los Angeles, July 1.-THE long
standing question of whether or not
an American opera, in English, can
be written to compare with the
works of great European composers
aud librettists may be decided here
tonight at the first production of
"Fairyland," $4,000 prize opera of
the american Federation Of Music
clubs. ~s....- e.. -.-. 81.
Some of the greatest musicians and
critics in the country have arrived
here to attend the first production,
for which practically no expense has
been spared.
The operas three-act piece, is a
central European setting of the 18th
century, and was written by Horatio
Parker, dean of music at Yale.
It is chorus opera, and the music
is said tos.bear an individuality dis
stinctly apart from the modern and
ancient schools of European opera.
The work of producing it has been
under the direction of Alfred Hertz
for | years director Of Wagnerian
opera at the Metropolitan in New
York.
Predictions are that It will be 9
big success.
