Hart ford. with his operatic concert con- pany is strongly opposed to includ- ing operatic arias in his recital pro- grams. The reason is that he con- siders it unintelligent for a singer to draw upon his operatic repertoire for a concert. when the literature of song is so rich and varied
 Nevertheless he is constantly irri- tated by people who ask him from which operas h eis going to select the programs of his concerts. To him opera is one thing, and a song recital another. There may be in opera a few rare pages that are suf- ficiently lyrical in character to sur vive being transferred from one to the other, but why should one use even these when the worlds wealth of pure song is so immense that no singer in lifetime can explore more than a portion of it. Opera, moreover, demands scenery, cos tune, makeup and dramatic action. These are impossible on the concert stage.
