In the passing of David Bispham.
American baritone" there has closed
the long and brilliant career Of a
pioneer in the recognition of Ameri-
, cans in opera and on the concert
stage. For, of David Bispham II was
said, after he returned to this coun-
try from a grand opera engagement
in London in 1895, that he was the
only American man singing upon
the stage of either continent In grand
opera"
And what did David Bispham stand
for? He was engaged for the Wagner
repertory when he first came to the
Metropolitan Opera House in 1896.
His initial appearance there was us
Telramund in "Lohengrin" with Nine.
Emma Games as Elsa, Nine. Olitzka
as Ortrud, Jean de Reszke as LOh"n-
grin, and Edouard de Reszke as the
King. He was frequently heard in
all the Wagner operas with the ex.
ception Of "Parsfal," which was not
produced here while he remained with
the. company. He also sang in Ital-
ian and French repertory. and made
one of his greatest comedy successes
in the title role of Mozart's operetta,
''The Impresario."
Mr.. Bispham was equally eminent
as an oratorio and recital singer. it
was in a series of concerts given IN
Sunday afternoon in New York that
David Bispham introduced those pro
found -Four Serious Songs" OF
Brahms to American audiences, that
are set to texts from the Bible. Here
also he sang the Schumann "Dich:er-
liebe," Schubert's Miller Songs" and
made popular Damrosch's Danny
Deever."
Two Great Americans.
It was at one of these recitals that
the writer remembers seeing another
great American, Mark Twain, listen
ing with interest from one OF the
upper boxes, and ever and anon giv'
ing vent to that restless nature OF his
by pacing the corridor back of his
box, with his hands behind his back.
The massive head Of the great hu-
morist. or humanist. was reflected an
the forceful makeup" that Bispham
used when he gave a dramatic version
of Beethoven" I'M drama, too-mu.
sic-drama-he gave readings Of
"Enoch Ardent with the Richard
Strauss music, and Of Midsummer
Nights Dream" with all of the Men,
delssohn music.
A New York appreciation says that
his Wagner approximations. partic-
ulariy Telramund. Kurvenal, Beck.
messer and Alberich, will be remem-
bered as among the best ever
brought before Metropolitan audi
ences. The intense personal quality
that gave life, to David Bispham's
singing. added to the beauty Of a
voice Of fine quality and to the spirit
of a true artist. will remain insplra'
tons to those who remember him.
In the music world, the passing of
the first" among the great Ameri'
can men in music, is distinct loss,
David Bispham Is a milestone IN
Americas progress in the arts.
