Henry Hadley, the composer, bids fair
by this world premier to be known

Boston, where his father was a mu-
stefan by profession and was his first
teacher. Before he was 81 he had
composed a dramatic overture, string

In 1894 he went to Vienna to study
and while there composed his third
suite for orchestra. His first sym

slaves, eunuchs, dwarfs, dancing
maids, all lamenting the piteous condi-
tons Of the country in state of pro-
longed drought. It is a hot sultry
hour approaching sunset, and for
what relief 1t is possible to obtain
the people of the palace plunge into
the pool. Greek and desert maidens
lament the death of the flowers for
lack OF rain and plead with the gods
of Egypt for relief. Meanwhile as the
slaves plunge into the pool and enjoy
its freshness the music takes a lighter
tone.
Mdrdion the slave comes down the
terrace to interrupt their sport and
splashing. From the height she has
seen the barge OF the Queen approach
ing. This character is next in impor-
tance to Cleopatra herself in the story
and will be sung by a heavy mezzo
voice, verging on contralto. At her
command the slaves and palace func-
tlonaries emerge from the pool and
draw up in line to receive the Queen.
There are two ballots in the score,
of which the first one is danced by the
Greek maidens shortly after the invo-
cation to Cleopatra at her entrance,
which is made from the famous barge,
decorated as Shakespeare describes II
in his Antony and Cleopatra" cloth
of gold, of silver, rowed down the sui
len yellow flood by forty rowers under
the master, DionedeS. Under waving
palms and fans of peacock feathers the
Queen is carried to her seat on the
terrace and the dancers appearing on
platforms to the right and left per-
form the evolutions OF a slow, volup-
tuous Eastern dance This concluded
is followed by dangerous aria sung
by Cleopatra.
At this point the waters OF the pool
are troubled. The Queen points to
where the waves break under no ap-
parent compulsion in the hot, dull sun
set and the dancers and slaves yield
TO superstitious terrors as II Niius,
whom the Queen has summoned, were
about to answer by appearing. But
the interruption is not from NiIus or
any supernatural agency, for there
appears above the water the hero Of
the story, a young Egyptian, Meid-

rious Egypt which obsessed the
French poet Theophile Gautier and
shines brightly in his dark blue velvet
