Miss Juliet Glen
Opens Studio
Miss Juliet Glen, who is opening
a voice studio next Tuesday in the
First National Bank building, be
lieves Salem Is ready for its own
opera. Local opera is one of the
surprising developments of the past
few years in the United States.
Opera Intime, Chamber Opera, Ly
ric Opera, all of them have sprung
up in music loving communities.
A group of singers vocally ade
quate to handling a score and f
small orchestra enables the public
to hear the finest music with small
expense. It Is In the smaller cities
of Europe where the greatest sing
ers are developed and given oppor
tunity for expression to all who
sing well.
Salem, Miss Glen believes, has
the voices, the orchestra and the
spirit to Join in this national move
ment. Miss Glen will welcome any
singers who are interested in be
coming members of Salem's first
opera company.
