LAZZARl Wins
SALT LAKE CITY
Noted COntralt0 Sweeps Music
Lovers Off Their Feet With
Concert.

Carolina I.azzari, contralto soloist for
the Metropolitan opera company Of New
York who comes to the Grand opera
house this Thursday evening in recital,
appeared Monday night in Salt Lake
City and scored one of the greatest hits
ever accorded an artist in the Mormon
city. Here is what the Salt Lake Tribune
says of the concert given by the famous
artist:
artistic to her finger-tips. possessing
n voice of truly marvellous beauty and
power. cellolike in vibrat richness in
her lower tones and ever exquisitely
clear. Carolina Lazzari. contralto. scored
high at her initial appearance at the
Salt Lake theater last night before a
large audience. She came heralded as
one of the stars among the great singers,
and those who heard her program are
willing to testify that the story of her
ability is not overdrawn. With twenty
songs. typical of widely varying moods.
from the gayety of pure mirth to the
sadness of the inevitable hour; from
the tenderness of a mothers lullaby 10
lovers revery. to dramatic interpreta-
ton of passion and power. Lazzari work
ed upon the mind and heart of her
auditors as only genuine and highly
trained artist can do.
For tenderness and beauty, Secehi )
'Lungi dal Caro- Bene: set high
Standard for brillianey and grace. Pal
siello's "Zingeralia" was gem, while
the Schubert Ave Maria" the Rhine
hardt When the Roses Bloom the
Nevin Rosary" the MacFayden Cradle
Song and the Until by Sanderson,
were examples of depth and power IN
subdued expression that will long be re-
membered There was but one purely
dramatic number. the Page song from
Meyerbeer's "Huguenots,' but it was
handled with an artistry of reserve and
finish that made one hungry for more.
Miss Blanche Barbot accompanist for
Miss Lazzari, was efficient, sympathetic
and satisfying throughout
Local artists and those who enjoy
the best in music began to show their
interest by the purchase of tickets when
the seat sale opened Wednesday and the
crowd which greets Miss Lazzari will be
composed of the representative people
of the city. The box office will be open
at noon.

with those made in 1918 accounts
largely for the difference In the totals

not the case. The office was maintained
here until a few weeks ago when an
