clever vaudeville there is a picture
which teens with military action sim

SONG OF HIAWATHG
ENTHRALLS THRONG
AT LYRIC THEATRE
Oratorio Society's Growing
Achievement Draws Audi
ence Beyond Capacity.

The Lyric theatre was not large
enough for those who came to hear
the Song of Hiawatha'' last night
The stage made a beautiful picture,
though it required tight squeezing to
get the chorus into its place. together
with the so members of the Philhar-
monic orchestra.
The evening was treat. The
Bridgeport Oratorto Society has in
creased in numbers and quality. It
the direction of DR.. Arthur Mees, the
difficult music of Co1eridge-Taylor' s
semi barbaric composition was rem
dered with power and finish. In no
respect did the chorus show more
| i'm Improvement over its past than in its
articulation of the words of the poem.
Most of the time the story could be
followed without the aid of the book.
This is a condition contributory to the
enjoyment of an audience THAT is not
always fulfilled, even by experienced
solo singers. That a chorus of three
or four hundred voices should come
SO close to an ideal is an amazing tri-
butte to the industry of individuals
and to the skill and tact of DR.. Mees.
The song receives its value from two
sources, the sentiment and the music,
the sound and the meaning.
When the works of a great song
are pronounced in an unmeaning way,
the voice is reduced to the domain of
an instrument, it's interpretations are
then as limited as the interpretations
of sounds themselves. 1t is the artic-
uIate that puts full intellectual value
/ into song When one sings 'tAhnie
Laurie there@is the 10y. of the music,
the sweetness of the melody, and the
/ beauty of the thought. For bonnie
Annie Laurie would lay me down
and die.'' There must be no guessing

| a. failure.
/ The words of .sHiawatha'' are, in diff
\ fcult arrangement for a musical set
/ ting They do not readily lend them
selves to a modern musical setting.
They are reminiscent of primitive life,
and adapted to be pronounced the
rude beating Of a, savage drum.
The song to be understood must be
articulated. If the thought is smoth-
Tered IN the nusic,~ the music loses
| much of it's meaning and the poem all
| Perhaps the necessity of the situa-
ltion accounts for the improvement
the society exhibited in this necessary
phase of choral work, that enumeration
lof the words by which the poem de-
rives its intellectual and cPmpelline
value.
/ The chorus was ably assisted by
Miss Marie Kaiser, Asoprano; Reed

1t is needless to say that their work
was well and pleasantly done, with q
