Edward Johnson
of Chicago Opera
Gives Song Recital
Tenor Is Heard to Best Ad.
vantage in Songs Call
ing for Vigor.

Opera singers who sing really well
are not numerous and this fact is clearly
revealed when they leave behind them
the distractions OF scenery, costumes,
action. dazzling lights and pealing
orchestration and stand unprotected on
the concert platform. Edward Johnson,
ore Of the tenors of the Chicago Opera
Company. who gave recital yesterday
afternoon in Carnege Hall, demonstrated
once more the great need Of the opera
singer of all the accessories OF the
theatre.
The fundamental requirement Of an
opera singer Is a. big voice. Mr.. john
sons voice Is sufficiently large for the
lyric roles OF opera. but his technic is
much too small for the exposure OF a
song recital. His singing disclosed oil
the crudeness Of his tone production, tho
lack of finish in his art and his I'M
certai- conception OF style.
How little the tenor realized his own
limitations was shown by the inclusion
In his list of Schubert's 'Du bist die
Run" His delivery OF It was by no
means an undiluted joy. He was heard
to better advantage in songs calling for
vigor, though even In these his harsh
treatment of his lower and middle tones
could not escape notice.

OLIVER DEMONS RECITAL.

Oliver Denton gave a plano recital
yesterday in Aeolian Hall. He played
Rameau's gavotte and variations, three
pieces by Brahms, Chopin's B minor
sonata and five numbers OF List. This
player has steadily advanced In his art
since he was first heard here, four sea-
sons ago His technic is smoother and
his Interpretation more efrectual. Yes-
terday he performed his programme
from start to finish with vIrile power,
taste and intelligence.
His rhythmic sense unfortunately Is
not OF the best, as was noticeable, for
instance. in portions of the Brahms
group, but otherwise he played this
music with fine musical insight
The players wide dynamic range was
splendidly shown in LISTS "St Francis
Walking on the Waves" In the tenth
rhapsody of the same master the finger
work was ripping and the tone colo,
varied. Another Liszt piece. the "Can-
zonetta Del Salvador Rosa" which Is
seldom heard. afforded Mr.. Denton OPP
portunity TO display some effective &C
centuation, and he had to repeat the
number.
