City Concert Season Ends
With Siorm of Applause
For Americanized Figaro
By ARTHUR BREMER
Klamath' - Community Con
cert season ended in a storm of
applause last night a tha cur
tain swept shut on "The Mar
riage of Figaro," Mozart's opera
Americanized with almost' baf
fling success by -1 h a Nine
O'clock Opera company of New
York. ,
- To this company of young
singers goes credit for opening
not a few local eyes to tha possi
bilities heretofore concealed be
hind tha words "Mozart" and
"opera." Small wonder- the re
viewers from coast to coast have
acclaimed their performance. -
In the first place, this opera
was sung in English and in an
understandable manner, helped
out somewhat by- Mozart's habit
of repeating important phrases
over and over in a song. And in
the second place, the show was
staged with the utmost simplic
ity, with a narrator strolling on
the set at' opportune times to re
arrange the few props and give
the audience the up-to-then subtotal-
of the plot as it' moved
along.- Almost too simple was
the costuming of the players.
Figaro, the valet, or Cherubino,
the page-boy, might as well have
been young miiiionnaires as far
as their evening clothes indicat
ed. The countess and her maid
could have changed places, .and
did, for that matter, as the plot
unwornd. -
Otherwise, it was still opera.
There were no spoken lines, ex
cept for the narrator's between
scenes descriptions of plot and
setting. : The voices of the sing
ers, while not quite - as high-
powered as the general run of
opera stars,' were pleasing and
blended exceptionally, well.
Musical highlights were the
piano accompaniment played by
Max WaJmer, the dramatic song
by the-countess, Gertrude Gib
son, in the second act, and the
scene in which Figaro, sung by
John Tyers, presented with voice
and gesture a description of the
army life to which Cherubino,
the page-boy played by a sopra
no, Vera Weikel, had been ban
value.

Tha singing and Mozart's mu
