Mr. Kemalyan appeared here instead of Rawn Spearman, who was unable' to fill his civic music con tract because of an extended engagement in New York City where he is appearing in "House of Flowers." Young Mr. Kemalyan pre sented a varied program, of some length, with a very beauti ful voice, but he does not know how to sing. To learn a repetoire of many songs in different languages is not the whole of the art of sing ing, contrary to the common be lief. Because one is endowed with a beautiful voice does not make one a singer, and not a good one or a great one. It would be the same as saying that the owner of a Steinway grand piano or a Stradivarious or Guarnerius violin is a great pianist or great violinist To produce tones from a good or beautiful voice requires a knowledge along with, much practicing, of breath control, coloring, placement and many other things that make the text of the music, clear, understand able and meaningful to the audi ence.

His diction was opaque simply because his voice never pro jected beyond his soft palate. Whether singing in English, Italian or French the words all sounded the same, vocal sounds with no meaning. It could have been a reward ing musical evening. The pro grant was excellently chosen and balanced, but the rendition was marred by a monotonous delivery. Mr. Wilson played hit group very well but without any distinction. As an accompanist he was most excellent and sus tained Mr. Kemalyon with sound musicianship and good taste.
