AMERICAN SINGERS
OPEN THIRD SEASON
Suppes "Boccaccio" Is Gipen
at Park Theatre.

The third season Of the Society of
American Singers opened last evening
at the Park Theatre. This organiza-
ton began with a series OF experimental
performances introducing a version Of
Mozarts "Schauspieldirektor'' and his
"Bastien and Bastienne." Other short
operas unfamiliar to New York fol-
lowed, and the experiment met with such
favor that the following season more
ambitious efforts we're made. In the
end, however. the society found Itself
happiest in the old Gilbert and Sullivan
operettas.
The work selected for last evening
was Suppo's "Boccaccio," which had not
been heard In recent years and IL doubt
less unknown to most of the present
generation Of theatregoers. 1t In a
bright and dashing work in the realm OF
light comedy, equipped with music OF
the best Viennese type, opulent in dance
and march rhythms and seductive in
melody. 1t was received with every evil
dence OF favor by the audience.
The performance was spirited, but not
wholly the key of the work. The prin-
cipals worked vigorously, but most of
them wanted something of the delicacy
OF touch and the gay feeling of the
comedy. Cora Tracy was pleasing fig
ure as Boccdccio and she sang her music
generally well, but In a style somewhat
heavy. A very slight young woman,
Virginia Rea, made her debut as Bea-
trice and gave some promise of becom-
ing agreeable in the part when free from
the anxieties OF a first performance.
Craig Campbell as Leonetto exhibited
skill as falsettist and Ruth Miller sang
toieraoly as Fidmettd, the beloved OF
Boocdccio. Frank Moylan as Lottcr-
"a nj m
Ldmbertuccio the grocer. Bertram Pea.
cock as ScoiSo the barber and Morton
Adkins as the Prince were other leading
members OF the cast. There was a gooo
orchestra and substantial chorus.
