Miss Novaes chose Villa Lobos'
Memo Precoce," which was given
its American premiere yesterday.
It is Miss Novaes' brilliant tech
nique and her musical tone that
are responsible for this affectionate
surname. She grips the keys with
boldness which speaks for her COM
mand Of the keyboard, but she
charms also by the delicacy of her
ripping scales and does full justice
to the style of Mozart, whose "Con-
certo in E Flat" she performed yes
terday.
There is a distinctive feature in
this particular work-a combined
prominence of orchestra and solo,
ist throughout, which lends greater
significance to the piano part. The
merging of the piano tone into the
rich background provided by the
instruments and the finely wrought
contrasts between loud and soft by
the piano, were a source of con-
tinued delight.
In Memo Precoce" the orchestra
played a considerable part. This
work projects a personality intent
to portray in sound and orchestral
color the life of the Brazilian COM
poser's people. The suite represents
a juvenile carnival scene, consisting
as in all tone poems, much was

youthful characters and Their
merry making. including that ol

from that fact, taken just as mu'
sic, the suite is full of ingenious
harmonies, soft to the ear ant

passages in which Miss Novae
seemed in sympathy with the com
poser's intentions. There wer'

Novaes' performance when one fel

San Carlos
Faust
Excellent
Scores in Vocal
And HiStriOnic
Departments
BY ALICE EvERSMAN.

Another group Of excellent artists
was heard at the matinee perform
ance yesterday at the National The
ater, where the San Carlo Opera
Co. presented Gounod's Faust"
This romantic and melodic opera,
on a theme that has intrigued
writer's for centuries, stands third
in the sum of performances given
each work at the Metropolitan over
a period Of so years, being preceded
in popularity only by aida" and
'Lohengrin." To many, grand
opera means Faust" For them, its
endearing qualities never have been
equaled by any other work and so
must have thought many Of the
large audience which turned out
for the afternoon performance.
Those taking the leading roles
in this opera must ever stand COM
parison with the great artists
whose names will live forever by
reason Of their Interpretation Of
the characters. The cast of yes
terday's opera was an excellent one
vocally and histrionically. The
name part was taken by Dimitri
Onofrei, whose tenor voice is full
resonant and of good range. A
slight huskiness in the lower regis
ter may have indicated an indis-
position which also might account
for his rather nonchalant attitude
in the famous love scenes. Ex-
teriorly he did all that was re-
quired, singing the well-known
arias and duets excellently, yet
without passion.
Leola Turner made an attractive
Marguerite and in her singing OF
the part, her flexible pure soprano
was never taxed to its limits. She
acted naturally and convincingly
with ever growing appeal The
garden scene, where her principal
aria and the beautiful love duet
is laid, was finely portrayed, hel
voice blending well in texture with
that Of Mr.. Onofrei.
Special interest always is fixec
on the Mephisto, and Harold Kravitt

to lift wheat prices about two cents
a bushel today to the best level In
more than a month.
May wheat reached SLOT, up l
7.s, and July $1.05 IA, up 2 cents,
within less than 3 cents Of their
midi December peaks, which stands
as the highest prices recorded here
in more than two years.
Pessimistic crop reports and Eu-
ropean war news rel among the
buying factors. While the forecast
predicted slowly rising temperatures
n some wheat areas, crop experts
expressed belief that weather is re-
tarding plant development. The
Ohio valley had IL to 2 inches of
snow for protection against freezing
temperatures and there was snow
in the spring wheat and rye zones
but Kansas, Texas, Oklahoma and
Nebraska were without covering.
