It would be more accurate and pre clude the possibility of an inference that there was anything bad about it if I were to say that I have bought high priced tickets to pretentious concerts In New York that were not so good as the concert given by W. H. Boyer at the Hellig Theater last evening. This is not saying too much. Perhaps It is not saying enough. It it conveys the Impression that the effort last night has my unqualified approval, I shall be satis fied. I am but one person, and I can f give but a report of the result of the pro gramme upon me. But my culture and ex perience In such matters will serve for the average, and there Is no doubt what ever that Mr. Boyer's offering was Im portant and unusual, If not remarkable. I think the concert would have commanded more than ordinary attention In any city of this country. In the first place, you do not get Verdi's "Requiem" every evening not by a large majority of evenings. Of course we only got parts- of It last night, but they were great parts, representative parts, and the rendering was -vastly interesting. Mr. Boy'er surpasses any conductor around here, and the choral work he drove out of those 50 voices was astonishingly fine. Earnestness and verve are his chief char acteristics. Heart In the job. a vibrating Intellect, active with arms and eyes, watchful as r cat, molding and well-nigh whipping everyone and everything Into shaping the general result there he stood, master of his people, and the voices re sponded with extraordinary precision and finish. All of this beautiful "Requiem" Is full of that peculiar ecstatic quRllty that I have never found wanting In Verdi's music. It Is a strange, alluring habit of harmonies and rhythm that makes one know his music as soon as a few strains are heard. Anyone who loves music loves Verdi. There were many there last night who drank In the sweetness and solemnity of that prayer with Infinite peace and satis faction. Mr. Boyer took "The Day of An ger" number at a tempo that rattled the orchestra, hut the chorus was with him at each measure. He had them In the hollow of his hand. Their swelling to a climatric stop was Inspiring. We wish the orchestra could have had more rehearsal. In these stupendous passages, where shading and smoothness were essential to the effect, the Instruments were practi cally abandoned by the voices. Miss Eula Bennett, the soprano; who. I understand, has had some experience in opera, was a basic factor, and her clear, true voice led oftentimes with the author ity of a chieftain. Charles Cutter carried the brunt of the baritone principal's la bors. He has a voice of uncommon range and striking richness, but he lacks confi dence in himself. He looks and sounds as if he would make a great singer some day. Ginger and the dramatic training Is what he needs. God has been extremely gener ous to him, both as to physique and thorax. Father Dominic's "Beautiful Willam ette," for chorus and orchestra. Is a crea tion of soothing, melodious beauty. Pic torial and suggestive of the scene and sub ject. It teems with atmosphere and touches the finer senses. Technically It Is a masterpiece in Its way. It was received with warm appreciation. Perhaps the intensest Interest was taken in the selections that were given from the new light opera which has been written hy the blind boy. Frankle Rlchter. He calls his opera "The Grand Nazar." Na sar means a high chancellor In the East somewhere. Young Richter's father led the orchestra while It played the over ture from this new opera, and afterward played the baljet music and one of the songs. There is no doubt of the fact that this young Richter Is a genius. If the music of his in that overture Is not worthy of Offenbach, then I miss my guess by a long distance. From Offenbach down to Reginald de Koven there has never been any good light opera written if that Rlchter music Is not good. It has the genuine tinge, the life, the spirit, the true ring. It Is unmistakable In Its soul: and the instrumentation, considering the fact that the composer Is totally blind and dictates the notes for every Instrument, Is marvelous. The ballet music was marred by utterly inadequate Interpreta tion by the orchestra. The song was sweet and pretty, but Rlchter in this in stance did not sustain his little theme or end It as gracefully as he will do in future work. I hear that Henry Savage is to consider this opera with a view of producing It. George L. Hutchin has written the libretto and lyrics. If he has done his work as well as these portions of the music show AT LANDLORD'S MERCY. The lease on the ' famous "Quarter Block" of fine pianos expired last night.
