Portland Trust Company of Oregon BANK Third and Oak: fta. "The Bank for Savings." GREAT ACTOR IN MUSIC In' the great sphere of music. David Bispham is admittedly one of the great est actors. In fact, it has been often said that the drama lost a great star to the opera when David Bispham chose music as his profession. This remarkable dramatic power gives him a wonderful hold on his audiences, for when Bispham sings he puts into the song what was meant to be there. If it is tragedy, then there is tragedy in his voice and face; if It is devotion, one feels that he is listening to a prayer; if it is praise, one is lifted into the same state with the singer; if it is love, then tender ness and affection are in his notes; if it is humor, you hear the rippling of laughter; if it is descriptive, you see the thing that is described. There is nothing mechanical about Mr. Bisp ham'a singing it is all the man him self. A St. Louis critic writes of his recent concert in that .city: "No one, fresh from a concert given by David Bispham, could . write coldly of his wonderful art certainly, I cannot. From the soft, iender melody of the "Banjo Song," through the dramatic power and strength of "Danny Deever" to the wonderful, gripping, aching, in tensity of "Edward" this great artist poured forth the heaven-sent beauty of his voice. And, wonderful to relate, throughout the whole evening, this master-singer had not a -line, nor a word before htm. Even in his superb, marvelous reading of that final test of the reader, actor and singer, "King Robert of Sicily," Mr. Bispham relied entirely upon his trained memory." The Bispham concert takes place at the Heilig Theater Sunday afternoon, December 15, at 3 o'clock, and is the second event of the Portland Phil harmonic course under the manage ment of Eugene Kuester.
