Burskaya in Opera Given at Heilig Theater. BT LEONE CASS BAER. ANEW Carmen, a vivid, colorful and fascinating Russian Carmen, dinging the role In her native tongue, an achievement and unique thing in itself, and lavishing upon the role a wealth of the Russian in stinct for realism. Mile. Burskaya achieved a personal triumph Thurs day night at the Heilig. This young Russian womin'a con ception of the role Is original, wholly artistic and stirs the senses. Her opu lent mezzo-soprano, a voice of per suasive quality, full flung and pleas urably sure, and heard the evening be fore as the old countess in "I'ique Dame." Is revealed in, even greater beauty In Bizet's Impassioned mUBlc. Her dramatic Interpretation is un - marred by any tawdry theatrlcaliem or bizarre overemphasis so often con spicuous in the portrayals of Carmens given by dingers of Latin b,ood. Mile. Burskaya ban an understanding of the value of restraint and tears no pas- J stons to tatters, itatner sne punas the character of Carmen with a subtle artistry, making her not the wanton some would have her, but a capricious gypsy maid, untamed, passionate yet fickle, quick, to love and quick to tire, imbued with a fatalism that flirts with death, charming, voluptuous but never vulgar, .She gave to the beloved and familiar Habanera a delightful new vivacity and sang the "Seguidilla" and subse quent solo numbers with vocal allure, suffusing with the requisite warmth the amorous and fiery passages with Don Jose and with Kecamillo. Her scene where she reads her death in the cards was tremendous In its dra matic i import, her big horror-filled eyes fairly revealing Carmen's soul to the audience. In her tigerish rage when Don Jose brutally Ill-treats her, and in her portrayal, by gesture and expression, of her boredom and Im patience at Jose's insistence in front of the bull ring, she was dramatically superb and vocally a never-ending de light. It la very evident that Mile. Burskaya wishes to be seen and heard only as a member of the cast, rather than a star to whom the art of her "UuiTnlHiMu" nnH BiihnA. associates must be subordinated, but by reason of her dazzling voice, her charm and spirit of diablerie and physical appeal she constantly claims one's attention, even when she is among the others. Opera Simple and Tuneful. Simple and tuneful though it may seem as compared with some other works. "Carmen is an opera that re quires for the full setting forth of its wonderfully varied charms a cast of PASTOR URGED TO STAY I)H. McELVKEX IS REQUESTED TO KETAIX HIS PULPIT.

The fact that all the sing ers gave the roles in their native Russian tongue was an achievement indeed, and created a sensation. The throaty gutterals of the Russian speech were more noticeable in. the diction of the men singers, but the women wove their speech magically soft, with delicate slurring of lengthy words so as to fit them Into the music. M. Busanovsky in the role of Don Jose is skilled as an actor, as well as having a splendid tenor voice. The enactment where he pursues Carmen and plunges a dagger into her heart was a particularly fine piece of tragic j acting. M. Panteleeff as the pictur esque, Escamillo fits the role pic- torially and displayed a delightful basso. His singing of the Toreador song wan given an ovation and calls and prolonged "bravos" from the balcony held up the performance a few moments, while the delighted -singers smiled and bowed in genuine appreciation. Mile. Osipova made charming Micaela, the young peasant maid in love with Don Jose. A half dozen others, in solo bits and a splen did ensemble of voices, added to the vocal beauty o! the production.
