this afternoon. but the doom of i'm
pending tragedy is hardly less dra-
maticaIly woven into the texture Of
these interludes. This music is per-
haps the most poignant to be pre-
sented during the program.
The finale from the first act Of Ver-
dis "Othello" furnishes most appro-
pirate climax for the first half Of the
concert. 1t is not the most exciting
music on the program, but part Of the
most beautiful. The musical setting is
for scene in which the lovers, Othel-
70 and Desdemona, meet and sing in
duet of their ecstatic happiness. The
theme is among the loveliest in the
opera.

Opera Company in Harbin, China.
Only Is. when her family stopped
there after fleeing revolutionary Rus

ing She mastered. not only voice
technique. but also several languages,
including the Chinese.
1t was during one of her perform

heard her sing and was so impressed
that arrangements we're made to
bring her to America.
Her performances with the Phila-
delphia Symphony Orchestra and the
Philadelphia Grand Opera Company
were widely acclaimed, and led to her
engagement two years ago with the
Metropolitan Opera Company. She
has made concert visits to Europe
during the time allotted by her con-
tract.
Miss Petina is the first artist to
appear with the orchestra since its
return from the New England and
Canadian trip. which netted new
laurels for Dr. Kinder and his men.
