By ALICE .EyERsMAN.

The San Carlo Opera Company
took a day out of its cross country
tour to come to Constitution Hall
yesterday for an afternoon per-
formance of la Roheme" and one
of Carmen" in the evening. The
special reason for these appear
ances was the desire of the Fed
eral Employees Recreation Council
to have the San Carloans inaugu-
rate this seasons music festival, the
second event of which takes place
next Sunday.
The performance of Carmen"
brought Coe Glade back in the
title role whose Interpretation has
been and still is the most colorful
of the present day. The amazing
part about Miss Glade's portrayal
is that in spite of the fact that she
probably has sung the role more
often than any contralto of today,
there is always something new and
fresh in ideas. Basically, it is vital,
seductive and strong but each time
these carry different shadings and
a new angle to stress the allure
and unfold the tragedy of this pic
turesque operate heroine.
Last night there were many sub
tie nuances expressed in her acting

and in her vocal delivery. 1t held an
underlying seriousness as well as
warmth and her beguilment of her
companions was not one of feminine
frivolity but deeply expressive of
a passionate temperament Her
voice is richly hued, lending itself
to shades of sentiment. She looks
the part, is graceful and supple in
her acting and can dance with fire
and vivacity.
She was assisted in the develop
ment of the drama by Sidney Ray
ner as Don Jose and Mostyn Thorn
as as Escamillo, both of whom have
splendid voices and act we'll but
hardly carry the attractions these
characters were supposed to have
for the gypsy girl. Mr.. Rayner
singing the aria, La Fleur que tn
m'avais jetee" and Mr.. Thomas
"Toreador Song" were both received
with the enthusiasm their vocal
art deserves and the interpretations
of their roles had conviction. Nina
Crawl, a newcomer, was the Micaela
with lovely true voice and charm
ing stage presence. She sang the
aria. "Je dis que rien m'epouvante"
exceptionally well. her fine high
tones bringing a round of applause.

that bespeaks an individuality

Miss Zaremba commands vari-
ETY. of modulations in her sonorous
tone and employs them judiciously.
There is a lightning dash to the
more technical passages that give
them airy substance and form a
special contrast to the massive
power or singing quality of others.
The Chopin group which consisted
of the "Scherzo in B fiat minor" I"
"Etude in E, op. 10, No. g." Prelude
in B fiat minor" "Berceuse" and
"Polonaise in A fiat major" brought
all these into play with brilliant

forth with its excellent teamwork
in La Boheme" for each of the
characters are sketches with care
for the entire picture. Each Is a
vignette, the warmly sympathetic
Marcello of Mario Vale, the lively
Schaunard OF Stephan Ballarini,
the dignified Colline of Harold
Kravitt and the romantic Rodolfo
of Mario Palermo. Mr.. Palermo
gave an iinpassioned performance,
his splendid tenor voice filling the
hall and his acting finely detailed
in emotional effects.
Mary Henderson duplicated her
appealing portrayal of Mimi and
sang with increasing emotional
power as the performance pro-
gressed. Clelia Vendittis Musetta
was both amusing and charming
with a proper balance in the COM
edy element. The shorter roles of
both operas were in skilled hands
and the chorus made a lively and
colorful contribution to round out
the excellence. In the scenes in
Carmen" where Lydia Arlova,
premier danseuSe and Lucien Prize
deaux, premier danseur, appear, with
the assistance of the ballet, the spot
light is taken by these fine artists
to the momentary exclusion of all
else.
Mr.. Vale mastered the difficult
ties offered by presenting opera on
the Constitution Hall stage in such
a way as to give as complete a pic
ture as possible of the scenes In
which the stories evolve. The or
chestra, directed in the afternoon
by Emerson Buckley and at night
by Umberto Mugnai, gave a Son-
orous background to the singers.
