Miss Schwarzkopf sa d she felt
the University made a mistake
from the point of acoustics when
it had the wooden seats in Schwab
replaced. She said the thing of
music was after all the beauty of
sound and that the sound could
not reverberate from cushioned
seats.
She said one of thelbest halls
she had ever sung in was a
big, old building in the small
Australian town in which Nel
lie Melba had been born. "It
was wood from top to bottom,"
she said, "and the ( acoustics
were fabulous."
"There are many halls in this
country—famous old halls—made
with lots of wood, and they are
acoustically good," she said. She
was somewhat placated when
she was told by other guests that
the University plans a new audi
torium as part of its expansion
program.
Turning her attention aiwla:y
from auditoriums, Miss Schwarz
kopf said she had taken time out
from her touring schedule to cele
brate her birthday, Tuesday, with
a little bit of Christmas shopping
in New York City. •
"I usually do my Christmas
shopping on a plane by reading
advertise merits." she said.
"When I do shop is New York
I have to be careftl because so
many times the products shown
in New York shops were im
ported from Europe."
