To many music lovers of Imperial
Valley Mondays concert in which
Tito Schipa, leading tenor Of the
Metropolitan Opera company was
presented, was more than even
the brilliant musical event that it
was: it was realization of a dream
Of many years standing.
Some is years ago a group of
music lovers hoped that they might
form an organization which would
eventually, through a large number
of subscribers, be able to make
the worlds greatest music avail
able to Imperial Valley. After
many ups and downs, to the pres
ent Music Teachers association and
with aid of many individuals an
organizations, the dream was real
lied when on Monday night, one of
the greatest singers of the age was
presented before one of the most
enthusiastic audiences in the val
ley's history.
Tito Schipas golden voice thrill
ed hundreds as he sang for them
a charming program which featured
many of the favorite songs of his
audience. Beautiful as is his voice
his intelligent use of it contributes
even more to the pleasure of his
audience. Tone control and pro-
duction his phrasing, his effort
less manner of singing and his
friendly personality all charmed his
listeners. Each song, by his in
| depreciation, full of color and dra-
ma, was an individual new COM
position, whether an aria or a
simple song.
Mr.. Schipa's generosity in giving
| encores was also marked as ne
was called back again and again
by the enthusiastic applause.
In his first group the lovely
