LILLIAN EyANTrS RECITAL.

An audience truly interested in the
progress Of Washington musically lis
tened to one Of the most artistic re-
citals given so far this year at the
Belasco Theater last night, when Lii
liam Evanti, coloratura soprano gave
her one recital in her home town this
season. This colored singer has i'm
proved remarkably since the writer
first heard her in a recital three years
ago. She has gained in poise, individ-
uality Of style, perfection Of her die
tion in French in particular, and in
the sureness and evenness of her
tones. Last Spring, in a program,
Evanti showed some Of this improve
ment. but she has never appeared so
completely professional In her bearing
and SO consistent in the quality Of her
singing as she did last night.
The program was opened with "Song
Of Spring" from Handel's opera, "Ro-
delinda," followed by Scarlatti's "Qual
Farfaletto Amante" and 'lleluja," by
Farfaletto Amante" and "Alleluja," by
Mozart-all difficult. intricate songf
zart. Liza Lehmann's "On the Day
Get to Heaven" was a delightful lit
tie encore in the typical Lehman
manner. The singers enunciation
cannot be overpraised for it's clear
ness and valuation Of words. Also
she bows delightfully."-.
Perhaps the most difficult number
on this democratic program of song

excellently sung, and was followed
with marked contrast, yet equal ar
ttstry in presentation, by the ere.
quest" number, Irving Berlin's al
ways" From Mozart to Berlin is a
long, long way, yet Lillian Evanti
made 1t seem logical and dignif1ed
the entire way. One of the most beau

mara's "Fiocca la Neve." and an
other lovely number was Ractman.
