83Paris, October 28, 1913.
85The most interesting event of the week for the American musical colony was the Paris debut of one of Jean de Reszke's pupils, May Esther Peterson, who appeared last Wednesday evening at the Gaiete Lyrique in the title part of Delibes' "Lakme." It was a complete success and redounded greatly to the credit of both Miss Peterson and her famous teacher. She has a very pure, clear, sympathetic soprano voice and her vocalization is excellent in every respect. Miss Peterson was recalled several times at the end of each act, and the famous "Bell Song," with its vocal fireworks and high E at the end, was so capitally done that it was at once redeemed, and the fine duet at the end of the first act as well. The part of Lakme does not call for any great display of dramatic temperament, to be sure, but Miss Peterson's acting throughout was absolutely competent and not at all like the work of a debutante. Although it was her first appearance on the stage in Paris, she has sung the role several times in the French Provincial opera houses, and the experience gained there stood her in good stead. Altogether it was an extremely successful debut and one promising much for the future. She is to sing the role several times more at the same house and I understand that it is not unlikely that she may become a member of the company at the Gaiete Lyrique for this season, appearing in her other roles as well. one of two readings

88As this was the first production which I had seen at this municipal opera house for popular operas, where the highest priced seat costs less than $1.50, I was interested in the evening as a whole. The standard of the whole thing was very good. The other singers, though not up to Miss Peterson's level, were reasonably competent, except the baritone, M. Ghasne, of the Opera Comique, who, it is to be hoped, sings better on his native heath than at the Gaiete Lyrique. The orchestra was excellent and very capably directed by A. Amalou. The house—it is regularly sold out for days in advance—was full and the audience extremely attentive and appreciative. Delibes' music, charming as many of the numbers are, sounds pretty old fashioned already, being, as a matter of fact, thirty years old this year.
90Arthur Shattuck is one of those progressive pianists who is not afraid to put novelties by contemporary composers on his program. On the list which he is to play at his opening recital of the season at the Salle des Agriculteurs on November 6, there is a sonatina by Reynaldo Hahn (in a group with Bach-Liszt and Beethoven!), Ignaz Friedmann's "Tabatière a Musique" and a scherzo by Sidney Rosenbloom.
92The first novelty of the season at the Theatre des Champs Elysées was "Les Trois Macques," lyric drama in four acts, by Charles Mère, music by Isidore de Lara, produced last Friday evening. Be this statement sufficient for the present moment. If this opera turns out to be a success and overlives the conventional first eight or ten performances, we will review it later. If it does not, what interest has it for the general musical reading public, for whom one is writing?
