As the Metropolitan Opera House
knows neither Trojan or Tyrlnn, but wel
comes all who come In tho nnme of Art, Its
stngo hospitably varied with German
opera the week's choreography of the
Slnv poseurs and paBseurs.
So tho local opera season ot 1915-16
ended Its merit? and deficiencies. Its un
fulfilled hopes nnd Its hrllllant achieve
ments In a burst of neutrality nnd splen
dor with one of tho Infrequent repetitions
of Wngner'n comic opera. "Die Meister
slnger von Nuernberg." This Is a lyrlc
ilrama. weighty enough In some of Its
leaden moments, but relatively so Im
ponderable in contrast with tho formal
music-drama, of the "Ring" tetralogy as
t . be considered the light masterpiece of
the Iiayretith School, possibly excepting
'Haensel und Grotel," a "marchen mlt
inuslk " with gossamery weaving of lelt
motlven and naivete of theme.
I Wagner did tho whole job and did It
well Ho wrote before the days of the
, Smith Family Robinson and tho Broad-
1 wny syndicates who assemblo musical
comedies
Humperdlnck's Is a fairy opera, pure
and simple, with simplicity Its aim. Wag
ner s "Master Singers" functions genuinely
as comic opera In blend nf humor nnd
satire. In his flaying of the formalists
who criticised him ho Is as relentless as
Aristophanes, and nothing that Gilbert
and Sullivan wrote Is more piercing than
the shafts of his musical and verbal wit.
Jacques Urlus, as Walther, was clear
and ringing as to tho upper voice, but In
the earlier parts of tho opera the lower
register seemed clouded. He redeemed
himself In the choice melody of the
nrize soiur. Wltherspoon was always ade
quate oh Pogner, but did not make tho
goldsmith stand out as a tonal creation
In the way that Hinckley once did This
will probably be Mr. Witherspoon's laBt
season In opera.
Hermann Well seemingly cannot make
his Sachs a charncter. blending the gran
diose nnd the grand magnificent of bouI
but he can and did re-create a sympathetic
being. He was at least a satisfying locum
tenens, though ho will hardly ever breed
the memories of a Carl Fischer or Anton
van Hooy. Ho sang tho llttlo air In the
night scene surpassingly well. The frisky
and mischievous David of Relss. a classic
interpretation, and tho equally classic
Ueckmesser of Gorltz, Hdgety. Jealous and
malicious, leavened the action, which was
slow In the opening act. Mme. Gadal.l
was In good voice and spirits and her
perennial Eva charmed.
Bodanzky's skilled conducting elim
inated clashes between voices and orches
tra. It was properly strenuous and vigor
ous at times, and restrained when re
pression was needed. W. R. M.
"PETER PAN" EXPLORES
NEVER-NEVER LAND AGAIN
And Takes a Riotously Happy Audi
ence With Him
Yesterday afternoon a standing-room-only
audience of children took the second
turning to the right and went straight on
till morning or would have If "Peter
Pan" hadn't ended about 5 o'clock and
the ticket taker of the Broad Street The
atre hadn't Insisted on opening the doors
Into a wet, squally, everyday and gen
erally nasty world.
Which Is only a very second-hand and
unsatisfactory way of describing the
wonder work that went on at the Broad.
H wasn't Barrle's play that seemed so
miraculous to grown-ups. It wasn't alto
gether that eager audience that Insisted
on believing loudly and vociferously In
fairies. To some of us It was the relation
of player to play and to audience, the
wholesome, downright satisfaction that
the actors seemed to get out of putting
every possible ounce of gusto into the
parts. Not a single one deserves raoro
mention than another not even the player
of Peter himself. They all tasted that
singular wine of the theatre, complete and
happy service to a happy audience. Some
of the audience envied them their divine
tipple. K- M.
