SIMILAR TO "IRIS" m "Monna Vanna" runs cloeely akin to "Iris," that masterpiece of Mascagni, but departs even more from the old con ventional opera in that the French com poser, Henry Fevrler. does not employ a leading motive as doea the Italian cre ator, who la better known through his Cavalleria Rusticana," Comparison is drawn with "Iris" i because that ia 'one of the more modern-works that has been sung in Portland. In accordance with the modern style, the music of "Mohna Vanna" runs con current with the text of the story and words are never repeated to conform vlth the music as in the old operas. In "Monna Vanna" the music follows the drama ad literam and hence there are many recitatives, and at times to a very light accompaniment. MT8IC EXPLAINED , In such instances the composer leaves 1. for the particular Instrument or com tlnation of instruments to voice the emo tion, as was done quaintly and beautiful ly In the third act by the bass clarinet ceuoa wnen Uuldo interrupted Vanna in her explanation of how ahe happened to return with Prlncivalle. and repulsed her. At other times, it was the f.utes that shrieked with terror or that trumpets anarled defiance or vengeance. In the quiet and temporary peaceful scenes the French horns furnished the pastoral effect. The strings voiced the moments of tender love or burning pas-: sloii. and so the tonal picture is unfolded until the end. .
