DER ROSENKAVALIER

AT METROPOLITAN

Monday Audience nrars Comedy

in Music of RichardStrauss.

PE II VOll M A XCE EXCELLEN T

Interpretation of tho Play andMusic Shows Im-

provement.

Richard Strauss' comedy In music,musical comedy, comic opera, opera bufTa.or what not, entitled "Der Rosenkavaller,"began the seventh week of the season nttho Metropolitan Opera llousu last eve-

ning. It also had Its first Inspection bya Monday night audience and cams awayfrom the ordeal In ft fairly well preservedstate. Ttiv performance was In the handsof the singers previously heard In the)

work and even Mr. Strauss himself mighthave been made happy by their Imper-sonations.

As heretofore the high honors ot theperformance belonged to the women.Mmes. Hempel nnd Uber repeated theircharming and deeply Interesting repre-sentations of the soon separated lovers.One hardly knows which Is the morecaptivating, the Ingenuous, ardent andyouthful Octavinn, or the experienced, In-

trospective nnd touchlngly tende r i'rlnciss.These characters owe more to the twoImpi rsonators than they do to the music,though In the flnnl scene of the tlrst artthis contains one of the highest flights offancy to be found Jn any score of Strauss.

It would be hurdly worth while tosearch with u lantern for nil the detailsof the opera. It Is not a grent creationOther comedies In music, made before It.will probably live long utter It. Rut Ifit serves tn amue a few more audiences,which nre not dllllriilt to amuse, It willhave Its value In the theatre of the day.It Is an unfortunate fact that people uraInclined to demand of the theatre onlyamusement, for the playhouse, dramaticor lyric. Is cnpahle of producing greatart Just as It did In days nowgone.

It ought tn be repeated In Justice to thaMetropolitan ()pra Company and Its Im-

presario that of "Der Rosenkavaller"does not secure n permanent place In therepertory of the house It will be no faultof theirs, Th production Is udmlrableIn every respect, nnd the devotion withwhich the opera has been undertaken Isshown by the fact that last evening's per-formance was the best so far.
