lively unfamiliar garb of the
song repertoire on q Victor
disc. Four by Schubert. three
by Brahms. q Strauss group
and three songs in English are
included. The Flagstad great
ness is not chiefly that of q
song -stylist. but this record is
eminently worthwhile for
other reasons.

and it Is used here with q
considerable quota OF express
siveness. The only point at
which the Flagstad and Mia

no comparisons are really
necessary.
