74consequently did not aid in depleting the national treasury. She sang at two representations of Rigoletto at the royal entry and Mignon on the second evening. Afterward at the palace, where the Emperor was the guest of his uncle and where there is a superb theatre, she sang Lalla Rookh and The Barber. For this present tournée she receives 6,000 frs. a night for twenty nights, and afterward goes to Berlin and Vienna. It is not very likely that after all this, although on excellent terms with Mr. Grau, this singer would appear in the Metropolitan troupe except as a leader.
76Marie Van Zandt at 20 rue Clément-Marot is tremb'ing on the eve of her return French début. Yes, all singers tremble before every new public. "Every new audience is a new experience," said Alexandre de Markoff. How ever an artist dares count on an appearance for any certain night, with French dressmakers, coiffeurs and shop people to count on, is difficult to say. It would require more faith than anybody could have after a first experience with them.
78Marie Roze is following Don Juan with live interest at the Opéra and Opéra Comique; she has sung in it as Donna Anna, as Zerlina and as Elvira. A young pupil tenor of hers, M. Rivière, has just been engaged at the Opéra Comique. He makes his début Sunday in Richard Coeur de Lion. He is a handsome young man with robust tenor of fine compass and exceedingly touching quality. Her school is meeting with great success and her musical receptions are looked for features in the artistic world. Mr. Meesham, a young American boy soprano, has been studying with her, but has left for Lisbon for an engagement.
80A charming concert was given on Sunday at the studios of M. Paul Marcel, professeur de chant, rue de Rome. M. Marcel makes a feature of having the works of certain composers given by his pupils at his musicals, and of having the composers present to play the accompaniments. One cannot sufficiently appreciate this advantage for pupils, especially foreign pupils, to whom interpretation is always more or less a sealed book. On Sunday the music of M. Alexandre Georges on poems by Jean Richepin was the subject. Both Mr. Georges and Mr. Richepin were present. Among pupils who distinguished themselves were Mme. Etta de Montjau, of New Orleans, and Miss Dresser, of New York.
82Mr. Marcel has, by the way, written an excellent treatise on the study of singing, entitled Guide du Chanteur. It is simple, true and helpful.
84Mme. Roger Miclos goes to Brussels to-morrow to play a Chopin séance with conference by Armand Silvestre. This distinguished and always growing pianist is to play this season with the Lamoureux concerts, and later makes a tournée in Berlin, Dresden, Vienna, Budapest, Moscow and St. Petersburg. Widow gives most charming accounts of the feeling in regard to her in Russia. One of the last wishes of Tchaikowsky was that she should be heard there in his works.
86The pianist Hylested is having great success in salons here. Wherever he is heard he receives the most enthusiastic applause.
88M. Sebastien Schlesinger has reopened his series of matinée musicales, which were such a feature of last year's musical society. At the first this week songs by Mme. Ferrari were sung by Mlle. Kireevsky, the society singer. Mme. van Stosch-Howland, the American violinist, played pieces by Vieuxtemps, Pierné and Zazekel, and Mr. Schlesinger sang several of his own songs, which were warmly received as usual. What a chance this musician has to do for music! Rich, one can do so much. Rich with talent, how much more! Add to that a social nature and charming and gifted family.
90Mme. Ferrari was a favored pupil of Gounod and is an intimate friend of the family. She was also a pupil of Lalo and Bizet. Her writings are being recognized by the musical world here. Her opera La Dernier Amour marks a new departure in her work. With an elegant husband and four beautiful daughters her home, Av. Kléber, is a centre of the artistic and society worlds of Paris united. Her salons opened on Monday.
92Mrs. Wm. J. Younger, of San Francisco, a pianist, returns home this week from Paris to attend the marriage of a daughter. Her return to Paris in the spring will be marked by a similar happy event.
94Mrs. Gilbert D. Munson and her daughter have reached Paris, the latter to study vocal music.
96Madame Amélie Hammer has reopened her course of declamation, diction and stage deportment at 77 rue Blanche.
98In a recent number of the Epoca, of Madrid, is an anecdote relating to Juliani which the loyal and admiring pupils of that professor will read with pleasure. It appears that the late tenor Duprez once attended a performance of Donizetti's Don Sebastien in which the famous Gayarre sang the leading rôle. After the great aria Duprez, with the greatest show of emotion, embraced Gayarre, saying:
100"Ah, who but Donizetti himself could have taught you to sing that air so—as no other mortal could! I recognize there the hand of the master."
102Whereupon Gayarre replied: "I never knew Donizetti,
