"TEN STAR SERIES" ENDS
Lucy Gates, Soprano, and Theo
KarIe, Tenor, Heard at National.

MITE lguoTg EIOAIo ~ NatiOuats
The fnal concert Of the popular
Ten Star Series at popular prices, pre-
sented by T. Arthur Smith,, was given
yesterday afternoon at the National
Theatsr By Lucy Gates, soprano. and
Theo Karle, tenor. The purpose Of
the series in bringing before the pub
lie artists of renown, and also the
younger applicant for favor has been
amply justified. or the latter, this
season, probably Leginska stands
first.
Theo KarIe comes also a. q young
singer who IL making his mark. He
IL q dramatic tenor with an excellent
voice, and his interpretations are dis
tinctly authoritative and delightful.
His Celeste Aida" was brilliant,
splendidIy dramatic, and given with
good tone and shading. His voice
needs to emancipate itself from .
certain throatiness, needs q little
more refining and freedom. This
should come, for he has the equip
ment of an artist who should go far,
and his soft voice IL handled with
artistry and beauty. ,a-.
One felt this charm particularly in
the second half Of the Beethoven
adelaide" The Rachmaninon 30
Madchen" was beautiful In
while the Halle I'm
Zitternden Mondlichtwiegen" had to
be repeated.
Miss Gates has . very high, light
soprano voice that reaches r above
high c. 1t Il ,facile in such songs as
"a des Oiseaux" of Hue. and she is
at her best in her delicate work. A
nasal quality mari much Of her sus-
tanned singing and her pitch II not
always accurate. The Moir when
Celia Sings" was particularly effect
i've, and Of her three Grieg songs the
Lied" had to be repeated.
