Don't miss that concert at City hall,
Thursday evening, March l. Such
joys come but once in a lifetime.
Here is what the Lewiston Journal
said of Nina Morganas singing and
reception at the Portland Musical
Festivals:
A big audience gathered Wednesday
night at the Portland auditorium with
great expectations, for they were to
hear Nina Morgana, and they were not
disappointed.
Dainty, scintillating, petite Nina
Morgana No violin virtuoso, no mem
cries of the fascinating Geraldine Far
rar could eclipse her radiant charms.
In her quantity puffed satin gown, she
looked as fresh and girlish as on her
first appearance in Portland.
Morgana is indisputably enc of the
fore. lost coloratura sopranos of the
dav. There is sunny warmth in her
soaring notes, a ravishing sweetness
and the freedom and spontaneity OF a
songbird.
Her Mad Scene" from Lucia was
wonderful, the ford outburst of agon-
lied fear and unrest being notable Tor
the ease and f1uency of the runs and
trills.
Round after round of applause fol
lowed her selections, and there were
almo # numberless recalls and en-
coreS.-Adv.
