M EHLICH AT
CONDUCTORS
DESK

With Conductor Ernest Meh-
Itch at the helm, "The Flying
Dutchman," was presented by
the German Grand Opera Com
pany as the last Of the series
of four operas given at Polls.
The matinee was the first time
Mehlich appeared in the series,
the others having been en-
trusted to Ernest Knoch.
Considering the "Dutchman"
one is struck with the idea
that this particular opus of the
great Richard Wagner, nearer
approaches our idea Of light
operetta than any Of the
masters works. There Is a
chorus for one thing. And the
men more than excelled yes
terday in the first act, when
they rendered the old sea
chantey. Even the women
scored q triumph or two, as in
the Oft remarked prolonged"
spinning song, with which the
second act is opened.
1t is the clearly defined plot
of the "Dutchman" which
makes 1t such a popular opera.
It's score, perhaps not as well
known as Tristan and Isolde"
nor Don Juan" nor for that
matter die Walkure," has
power and majesty, with a lit
that keeps 1t fresh in your
minds, even though you know
it will be a long time before
you hear 1t again, because the
opera is seldom presented.
To the ever delightful Rich
ard Gross was entrusted the
title role. Mr.. Gross, renowned
in washington for his excellent
character portrayalS as well as
the richness of his voice, gave
to the doomed sailor whose
fate to sail the seas forever
was to be lifted only through
the love of a faithful woman,
all the color and art Of voice
one could desire.
Dudley Warwick, as "Da-
land" called to himself many
laurels for the solo work OF
his part.
Alexander Larsen, as the
"Steersman," will long be re-
membered for his excellent rem
dition Of his principal aria,
"The Steersman's Song"
Margarethe Banner, as Senta-
was the prima donna Of the
afternoon. Miss Banner Is
distinguished as a dramatic
artist. She never over empha-
sizes q gesture and her voice
betrays the emotions with her
hands. Although some Of her
low, tones evaded the mellow
ness of most of her notes,
there is not singer in the
company who has more beauti-
full yelled tones. Her chief
aria was "A Ship the Restless
Ocean Sweeps" which she Of
fered with impressionabie artis-
try.
