Ionise Homer, at tlmes- and the courtly Spanish nobleman who takes lH!ts parts in the San Carlo performance may have now ami then a moment of forget fulm'Ks. One of the advantag- of the laboratory method of study lug rund opera is that lesitles attenditiK fini-licvl M'iforniaiic'S you are In at nil the n'hearsats and see just how every holy in the caste, great and small, is eoached into perfection of form. There are, now new opportunities In this country for pursuing this lulnira orv studv of the most dramatic kind IW classical music. Thee furtherm.ire are going to' be greatly increased in the tear future, say the wise ones, tlrand oHrn is likely before long to b actu ally at home in this country. 1'p to nnvw it has lieen only an exotic that Is. except in New Oleuns. New York, of iinirse, lia seen a multiiiuie or pr.sen- tions of j;rand (ix'ra. under foreign auspices, ev-r since the performance of the "IH'Kcr's Opera bark in 1750. A 'few nthera of the Inrg.-st cities have had ntw an.1 then a few days of the time of the op-ra troupes that spend most of their American seanons In the metropolis, where hib m-iety is will- h,g to Mpiaiider winr of the proceed of high finance iipmi high pried boxes. .bst average Americans, even those who are Interested iii muiie, know errand opera mainly by rcuding alout it. Only N'nw, Oleans which first in trohutsl oiera of the French and Italian school into America in Kill, ha had to its credit a practically unbroken eries of annual performances under local management. Comic opera, of course, ha wen Americanized long lim-e. dust now there is a likelihood that permanent grand opera on a broad democratic and non itcclional ba-iin may lx mniiitaim-d in this country, Iioton rather than New York nerving as head quarters. For the idea of the San Carlo opera company which has just completed tho first engagement of its second weanon in America with three weeks in Boston and ' which has now started on its tour among the leading centres of population, is to abolish the monopoly of grand opera hitherto held by the rich, cutting in two the usiinl prices for seats, as charged by the opera house in New York, and starting a scheme iwihich will appeal to Americans In all eities, with discrimination ngninst none. 1 : Tf Boston is chosen as the centre from which this plan of grand opera for all Americans will work, a distinctly new element will lie introduced into Amer ican music. For the l'uritan capital, al though in some respects, particularly ns regards musical composition and musical education, it has. long been the lending American centre, has always lieen weak in chmicvs to become familiar with grand opera." New York deserves great credit among American cities for having first given encouragement to cnteiriscs of this kind originating abroad. For more than a century Girthnm has patronized successively a long line of famous opera tic lingers to become familiar with Munuel finrcia and his daughter Mme. Miilibran,. Mme. Carradori, ftignorina Borgbos, Senor Marty, to say nothing of "the galairy of song birds" to bor row a favorite phrase of the press agents whom 'Colonel Mapleson, Mr, Orau, and Mr. Conned have introduced in later years to the American nubile. And in all this time Bostonlans, and New Eng land folk generally, have mainly grum bled at the price of grand opera during imi!e. to "eure, even at a sacrifice of some profit, a number rf dtln- uUlicl iniitii iaiis. la-oiiigd by lnt eii.soii r cent Ion in msnv Ameri-an illes und "particularly by that in Bos ton. .Mr. ltuel respieared this year with such well known personages as Mice NVilon, .fane Noria, Flori-nclo ('onstunttitu, Mii.liiine C'laisw-n. $eir- utola, Itluiulinrt.
