MISS VAN DRESSER
A GERMAN SINGER
Wagner's Comedy Triumphant
at Metropolitan Opera House
Music in Aid of Poland.

Some years ago, it would be ungal-
liant to say how many. Miss Marcia
Van Dresser was a singer Of the oper-
eta stage. with ambitions which
reached beyond the boundaries which
farce makers and complacent compos-
ers have set for that species Of enter
tainment. So she Joined the junior
forces of the Metropolitan Opera
House. and in time attracted attention
as the ioveliest flower in Klingsor's
magical garden of girls. But the op-
portunities offered by the big Broad
way institution did not suffice her. She
went to Germany, sang in some of the
municipal theatres of which we hear
so much as promoters of musical cult
ure, and reached out toward the ideals
which they set.
That she has reached some Of these
she made plain when she gave recital
of German songs in Aeolian Hall yes
terday afternoon. Whether or not her
old admirers felt gratified over her
achievement is a question which snail
not be discussed.
She went from us a charming young
American woman and agreeable artist;
she returns a thoroughly Teutonized
dramatic singer, with an enlarged voice
and a diminished art. Her programme
of German songs exclusively was fairly
interesting, and there was an element
of novelty in group Of Mahlers
songs; but there was great sameness
in all that she did, little sentiment IN
her readings and strange dolngs with
her voice in respect of omission.
The chief merit of her singing was
L.
songs by Mozart, five by Franz, four by
Mailer CLieder zines fahrenden Ce-
sellen") and six by Brahms made up
her printed list.
Wagner's comedy "Die Meistersing-
er" had repetition at the opera last
night. The singers were the same as
those concerned in its first represen-
tation last week, and Mr.. Toscanini
made the orchestral instruments sing
with the transporting eloquence which
is heard only when he reads Wag-
ner score.
The seasons high water mark is
surely reached in this production. MISS
Hempel's Eva is surely without par
allel for poetical charm and musical
loveliness in the local history OF the
opera, and if Herr Sembach's Wa!ther
and Herr Braun's POgner have had
fellows in the past they have been
few and cannot be called 10 mind while
This hasty note is writing. OF Mr..
Goritz's Beckmesser, a matchless i'm
personation. it has long been needless
70 write. Praise for it has been cx-
hausted. The audience was superb
one in all its details.
