A very laraa alienee waited very patiently at ths Auditorium Thursday for fully an hour for the rising of ths cortaln on the openina- chorus of "Lucia dl Lm- mermoor." It was explained that tha trsln on which tha sonablrds of tha an Carlo company came from Ksnsss City waa delayed four hours beyond Its prombted time for arrival In Omaha. Patience was rewarded by a remarkably tallsfylns; presentstlon of the opera. Dnnlsettl's masterpiece holds Its place In the list of popu'ar operas because of the brilliant quality of Its music. Tha theme Is not one to allure, nor does the sentiment In which It Is carried out tand to Increase tha Joy f life; that, however. la a quality common to most (rand operas tha most wondrously beautiful music has been woven around Incidents of deception and death, funereal In their every aspect It la very hard for a healthy mind to fix Itself on tha glorious sounds of the musicians when familiar with tha score, and awara that the loveli est of concord merely screens the per petration of some despicable act, tha betrayal of a lover, the murder of a man, tha breaking of a plighted troth, or some similar disappointment. o Donlsottl set tha sad and depreaaina; tale of Lucy Ashton to muito that Is Immortal and keeps tha world still weeping over the death of the Jlrlde of Lammermoor, who had been forgotten ere now, had she only depended on tha tale told by Scott to preserve her for posterity. Madame ETdvlge Vaccarl was recom mended to us as a "aeeond Tetraslnl." Maybe sha la; but after listening to her. one would much rather think of her as tha first Vaocsrl, and let soma other fol low with a claim to tha honor of being seoond. She la tall, wall built, and a flgurr to fill the aye, but without aver flnwlng, a smile that lights up her face with a glow of pathetic warmth, and blessed with power of acting that woukl make her Interpretation of the rola of Lucta'of Interest It sha did not slog a note. When sha sings, on fortnts to ask If aha can act; notes clear and pure, full and round and vibrant with life, coma from her throat with such eaaa of atteranee, such absolute control of, e presslon as to auggest perfection In' tha art of singing. Her coloratura work Is marvellous, and her head tones are beau tiful, the highest notes taken without ef fort and with no apparent diminution of vol-jpie, i-whlla her pianissimo la Im peccable, Vaccarl will not be heard again during tha entagoment. and those wha wera not at tha Auditorium last night may rest assured they have mlaaed one of tha real features tot tha engagement ' filgnor Sclarattl la a fiery, dashing Edgar, carrying his role with a vigor that fairly met tha seat of Vaccarl aa Ixx-la. and singing perfectly, Ms splendid tenor voice the exact complement of her bright soprano, so that tn tha duet of the aeeond "'' arena of the first act the tonea so blended as to sound like one glorious organ of melodious expression. He will be heard again on Saturday afternoon as Cnnio In "I' PtlfHaccl." Slgnor Antola. already known In Omaha because of former triumph here, ssng Henry Ashton very well, although his voice Is a rather high placed baritone. Plgnors Cettl, Ro.nlnl and Cervl and Madame ericlmayr are splendidly qualified for the minor solo roles, and with a numerous and com petent chorus made the first performance of the opera a musical and dramatic suc cess. Right here: The last time "Lucia dl Lammermoor" waa sung at the VAudl torlum. It waa by the Metropolitan Opera company, under the guidance of Herr Conreld, and memories of that perform ance etlll linger vivid In a mind not overburdened with recollections of great operatic productions. It js plucking no laurel from the wreaths of Caruso, Kem brich and the others, who sang that night, to say that the famoita sextette waa never better sung In Omaha than It mss last night 1 One other fact Impresses: On the forme occasion almost as many people paid HI a seat to get Into the Auditorium to hear "Lucia" as were present last ' night at $1 pr sest. Which nlmost forces ' tha conclusion that quite a multitude of the kome folks have little difficulty In suppressing any ambition they may havs to listen to grand opera, no matter what tha price. "Tfce Pri.ff of Pllsen" Coming. An all-star revival of "The prince of Pllsen," with new costumes, scenery and effects. Is announced as the Christmas attraction at the Rrandels theater. The company, will be headed by John W. Ran sone, who created the role of the humor ous old German brewer, Hana Wagner, In the original production at the .Broadway theater. New York, and who was seen In the first performance of the piece In Omaha, after which ha played It for eight months at the Bharubury theater, London, England. "Brlaclagr V rather" at the Bran dels. "Bringing Up Father" Is funny, at least so thought a good-sited audience that con gregated at the Brandeis theater Thurs day evening to witness the opening per formance of Ous Hill's musical conglom eration. 'Tather" as developed by Thomas Shearer Is all that could be desired In the comedy line, and the troubles and sorrows of tha paternal Individual In belpg rroomed and polished to suit his exacting family kept the crowd In a con tinuous demonstration throughout the en tire evening. Florence Guise as "Mother" and Georgia Campbell and Elaine Oray as the two daughters, Eleanor and Peggy, sucAecded In making Father's cymnastlcs sufficiently realistic ' to suit tha : most exacting. Together with the principals of tha piece, a chorus well above the average In every respect served to keep the audlenoe Interested throughout the three lively acts. The muslo Is new and fetching and of the variety that pleasos the popular fancy. "When It's Husking Time In Iowa" and "Moving Picture Mary" proved to be the favorites. "Bring ing Up Father" will continue at the Bran dels for th' remainder of the week, with a matinee Saturday afternoon. - I .
