SATURDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1922 Charms Her. Audience It is Indeed useless to comment citron last nleht upon tne coucwi. )n the armory by Marguerite D'Alvarez when world wide crit ics in every music center in tho world have accorded her unstint ed praise, and have called the Pe ruvian contralto one of the great est singers of her time. It would be useless to elaborate upon such criticism. - ' Miss D'Alvarez was greeted warmly last evening by a good crowd ot people. The program which she offered was one that wa3 pleasing to- her audience and she gave It with such rich ness of Interpretation and feeling that every numhar was in itself an' expression of her musical and dramatic ability. The first-group of the program opened with a delightful little FnglMi song, "The Mind of a Child," followed by "Caro mio Den," and "Danza, Danza," which Bhe gave with a glorious hit of dash and fire. " Her next group were varied ex pressions of emotion, from the dramatic thrill in "The Tryst", to the daintiness and softness of "The Butterfly is in Love with the Rose." "Come to the Fair" was a dashing rolicking number which brought forth a great deal of amila"p nna" tne singer respon ded with "The Top of the Morn ing," Mana Zucca. The group of four French songs "Psyche," "Beau Soir," "Les pa pilloma" and ' "Bonjour Sezon," had all of the subtelty and charm of French songs and they lont none of their value through her Bingfn.?. The contrast afforded by the group was well brought out In her interpretation. The last group of songs, two Bpauish love songs, "El pano" and "La Zagaline" and two songs from "Carmen" by Bizet, "Haba bera" and "La Segutdille," receiv ed perhaps the greatest favor from the audience. The love songs ' were sung with an intensity and yet lightness ot feeling and emo tion that was quite appealing The two songs from Carmen were Interpreted in a taunting, care free manner that was superb, and the opulence and rlchr.ess of her voice was magnificent. Lois Maier wai a very musical accompanist and gave the singer sympathetic support, beside play ing several numbers on the pro gram, hich were well receiv ed. Marguerite D'Alvarez ends the eeries of three singers brought here by Mrs. W. E. Anderson. This afternoon the Junior King s Heralds will mee. ..:ut'i Mrs. A. A.
