MUSIC NOTES.
Permit me to be "gossipjiy." 1
am in that state of mind. I am
thinking of "stars" at "close
range" as it were. Of Semlnicli,
and Eames, and Gadski, and Ho
mer—not before the footlights,
but behind the scenes.
Madame Marcella Kembrieh is
an artist to her finger-tips. There
is no more perfect legato singer
in the world. One prominent
singing teacher goes so far as to
object to Sembri cli's singing he
cause it is too perfect and sounds
no longer like a human voice.
People shake their heads and say
her voice is gone; hut they forget
that her voice, from one stand
point has always been small. It
is of that peculiar and wonderful
quality that has little body to it
it is more like a violin in charac
ter—filling and thrilling, but nev
er large nor exactly loud. With
out doubt she sang with greater
spontaneity when younger; she is
now said to be sixty, and should
she be ten years younger I would
like to hear any other singer of
that age sing with such beauty of
tone and act with such naive
charm. Calve and even Kchuinan-
Heink, who must be much young
er, have not held their own with
the public like Sembrich has. She
is very highly thought of, not only
as a singer but as a woman and
her faithful assistant and watch
dog is her husband, lie haunts
the opera when she sings and is
one of her most faithful listeners.
The floicer of the New York
Opera (Metropolitan) is Madame
Emma Eames, at least if she does
not now hold the palm for beauty
she did, and the public still holds
the idea, and Emma cannot get
out of the idea of holding it too,
and why should she? In La Tosca
Madame Eames acts and sings
with surprising histrionic force.
It has been her greatest role for
a number of seasons; anyway, she
has the field unmolested. Now
there is some talk of Geraldine
Farrar getting a chance, and 1 am
afraid Emma will "have a mad
on" (somewhere I have that ex
pression). And well she may be
angry, for if Miss Farrar does get
a chance, she won't waste it; she
will stab Scotti fiercely, brutally,
and in the last act she will kill
herself with far more gusto than
Emma does. Probably if she gets
her own way the scenery will be
changed, so that the audience can
see her falling to her doom—then
what will become of Emma, for
the public is fickle and loves the
sensational!
Madam Gadski is one of the
Wagnerian standbys. She al
ways takes her daughter with her,
and her husband too, a good look
ing German, who bustles around
and seems more important than
the Madam herself. I have heard
that daughter and husband stand
THE GUILFORDIAN
in the wings, listening to ''Mam
ma" sing till all hours of the
night. It is considered the cor
rect thing I'm' singers to "take
some n\" Kninia Eames takes a
friend and a maid. Geraldine
Farrar, her mother; and the pos
sessors of husbands take them.
A llrunnhilde, I like to think
of Gadski best, she sings the part
with great beauty, and her inter
pretation is both noble ami poetic.
No one who lias ever heard her
famous laI tie cry of "110-yo-10-ho"
will forget it or her—a marvelous
exhibition of both singing and of
voice. Madame llomer is an
American contralto who increases
steadly in public favor. She is a
fine actress, too. In "Haensel"
and Gretel she takes the part of
the witch, and it would be hard to
lind her equal. Schuman-Heink
took the part once but she was not
nearly so good. It was said that
Schuman-Heink murmured "selir
sehleeht" (very bad) as she went
off the stage and she told the
truth.

The last Thursday evening
meeting, the tirst since Christmas,
was conducted by Prof. White.
He began the meeting by reading
from the 14tli chapter of John,
iiod-31st verses inclusive. In the
course of his remarks he brought
out the thought, among others,
that if we are fundamentally right
with God we will then be at peace
with ourselves and with the world.
That it makes no difference as to
the temptations we are facing or
as to sorrows we are enduring, or
the troubles which come upon us,
we can live through them calmly
and peacefully if we are right
with God. lie said that the Great
Prince of Peace, Jesus, although
he was born and lived in the great
war zone of his time, surrounded
by all kinds of temptations and
weighed down by numerous sor
rows, yet was able to live at peace
with himself and the world.
All things in nature, all things
in the universe, if looked at as
God intended they should be, tend
to bring peace to us. It matters
not how dire the temptations, how
heavy the burdens or how discour
aging are our surroundings, peace
comes and abides with us if we try
to live the Christian life.
There were seventy-five boys to
listen to this splendid talk. If
you were not there you lost some
thing which will be hard for you
to recover.
