FAMOUS BARITONE
AND H SOPRANO
HEARD IN CONCERT
By J. L. Wallin
After waiting several years. Port
land music patrons found opportu
nity. Wednesday night to hear Pas
Quale Amato, baritone, sing tq them
in person phonographic records of
;his voice have been available for
'torn time and they recalled him
repeatedly, for he is an exceedingly
artistic interpreter of, Italian, and
French songs and a great actor in
operatic roles.
'Alternating with him on the program
was Miss Kitty Beale, lyric soprano of
Washington. D. C, with a moat promis
ing future in her chosen field, for she is
endowed abundantly with a beautiful
voice of flute-like clarity and the flexi
bility of the luscious violin .tone. But
she is young both in years and experi
ence on the concert stage.
The concert at the Heilig. was the
ftrst .of the Steers & Coman series and
the audience Included ail the confirmed
first nlghters.
. Amato scored his biggest triumphs In
the prologue frpm "Pasliacci,"' "Le Beau
Sejour" an old French song, and "Largo
et Factotum" from "The Barber of Se
ville,"' and the Toreador song from
"Carmen," the latter two extra numbers.
He makes splendid use of facial expres
sion at which he is a master, almost
equal to the once famous Ludwlg Wullner,
who because of his remarkable declama
tory ability made an everlasting Im
pression as a baritone Soloist though
there was very little music In his voice,
in his extra number, "Mamie Lisette,"
Amato's frowns and smiles told the
story as vividly as August Llndberg
could give in pantomime Ibsen's mas
terpiece, "Peer Gynt." And Ibsen him
self declared Lindberg the greatest inter
preter of his works he had ever heard.
In the prologue, Amato soared to A
flat with ease and held it, and the ballad
groups afforded several opportunities for
successful display of the lower register.
Miss Beale's stellar number was the
aria -Caro Nome." from Verdi's "Rlgo-
- . )
letto. and It was an - exquisite per
formance., the high notes being struck
with a certainty and correctness of
pitch altogether delightful. The songs,
however, that appealed most to the audi
ence, notwithstanding the ease with
which "she sang the difficult flourishes
In the coloratura numbers, were "Under
the Greenwood Tree" by Buzsl-Peccla,
and "An Evening : Song" by Ollberte,
both calling for legato singing arid long
sustained tones. These she sang without
the slight tremolo that Indicated nervous
ness In the opening phrases of the "PJro
letto" aria. For extra numbers she
sang the Shadow song from "Dlnorah"
and "Pallidl Rayul" by Rozaa.
A new departure in Miss Beale's sing
Ing.fet least here, was her cutting short
abruptly the high notes on which she
Invariably ended her songs.
The. accompanist was William Tyroler,
who played with remarkable exactness.
The next artists of the aeries will be
Charles Hackett, American tenor, and
Raoul Vidas, French violinist. 'on Decem
