Nine. Florence Hinkle gave her an
nual song recital yesterday afternoon
at Eolian Hall, and it goes without
saying that she was greeted byea large
and friendly audience. Nine. Hinkle
is always an intelligent singer and her
voice has been one of the finest to be
heard on the concert stage. Her voice
was not yesterday what it had been,
especially in the upper register but
she succeeded in giving much pleasure
by the intelligence of her interpreta-
tions. There were & number of new
songs, among which q charming one Of
Fourdrain, "Celle que je prefere," and
manuscript song of A. Orsini, al
Fasso," were encored. Other new num-
bers were a group by Di Stefa"c

New Singers Heard
In Opera Malred
By Many Faults
Rendition of s'Boris Codon-
noff'' Characterized by
Perfunctory Chorus and
Songs That Ignored Key
BY H. E. Krchbiel

There were new people in the est
of "Boris Godounoff" as performed at
the Metropolitan Opera House last
night. New people are inevitable even
IN opera companies under the direction
of Mr.. Gatti. for time rolls his cease
less course, as the poet observes. But
singers come and go, even faster than
years, especially in the secondary
stratum OF the organization.
The circumstance is less deplorable
than the changes in the character Of
the performances, which are not due
to the infusion Of new blood but the
accrition Of carelessness and prefunc-
toriness. Such changes. regrettable
always. are ntolerAble in works like
Monssingskey's opera, which have seri-
Gus import and lack the superficial elc-
ments which give pleasure to the easy
going listener.
Signor Toscanini knew how to pre-
vent the infection from spreading dur
ing his artistic administration, and if
he had been at the conductors desk
last night there would have been less
apathy in the cary part of the opera
at least. The "Slava" chorus in the
first act, which ought to speak the
voice of the Russian people like the
roar of mighty waters, was but a
ragged and impotent utterance under
Sienor Papi And we need the best of
agencies to keep US in sympathetic
countenance with }e popunlar heart of
Russia just now. Dut this may not be
pertinent operatic comment.
The newcomers in the cast last night
were Adiline Vosari, vocally rather
fragile Xenia; Louise Berat (the inn
keeper), seasoned and excellent char
acter actress and singer Gas we knew
from the acquaintance which she per-
mitted US to make in her days with the
Chicago Opera Company; Octave Qua,
who is now likely to make any one
forget Mr. Reiss as the Simpicton;
Gabrilla Besanzoni, who has vocal ma
terial which would have stood her in
good stead as Marina had OF been
produced more steadily, but could do
more than sing more or less salts
factorily since the character is utterly
without dramatic significance.
Finally there was Orville Harold,
who did not reconcile US with the alb
sence of Mr.. Atthouse, to whom the
part of Dmitri has belonged even since
tie opera was first produced here, al
Aough he might have done so had he
OF so emphatically seconded the
forts of his companions in the con-
duct to sing two tones simultaneously
As for the rest the usual compliments
were challenged by Mr.. Didur, Mr..
iothier, Mr.. De Sigurola and. Miss
Iilaunois.
