He accompanyist, and we therefore remind asked prisoner's Counsel what he would Signor Bergamaschi of a breach of stage propose; whether he wished this trial to etiquette which is not artistic, and to lago on or empanel a new jury, bad taste. Signor Sbriscia displayed great energy in his impersonation of Fernando, and although dreadfully flat in several pas sages at the commencement of the opera, he improved as he went on, and really sang throughout the last not in aplond I style. The objectionable tremolo was still notice able occasionally, but the Signor has wisely taken our hlut in this respect, and a vast Improvement in style is the result. The habit of holding back the time on certain notes so as to display his vocal powers to the best advantage we cannot approve of, although we admit that it is sometimes very effective. However, when too frequently indulged in, and Signor Sbriscia seldom misses a chance of dwelling," the habit not but destroy the smoothness of the melody, and from musical point of view it is not to be commended. As an actor, Signor Burlacia, with all the advantages of youth and a good appearance, la singularly ungraceful. His mode of making an exle, a hop, skip, and a jump, is more suggestive of pantomine than Italian Opera; and his general style is outside the pale of cultured criticism. He has plenty energy, but his actions are always awkward, and bis con- ception and rendering of the charactor of Fernando was thoroughly inconsistent. Signor Sbriscia is only a comparatively yanng and inexperienced artists, and we therefore recommend him to entirely re- model his style if he desires to succeed on the operatie stage. His fine voice, posses sing the r quisites of superior quality, na tural flexibily, and great compass, gives him every advantage, and we doubt not that care and study would in time make him on efficient an actor as he is a vocalist. We do not wish to appear hypercritical, but we are bound to take exception to Signor Sbriscia's bad taste in interpolating in his score a remark to the accompanyiat. It is doubtless annoying for a vocalist to be put out by a wrong note from the plane, but, in operatio performances, that is not sathic ent justification for an artist on the stage to turn round and correct the mistake in Language audible to the whole house.
Signora Bianca Genolini and Signor Campanini were partionlarly inefficient re- presentatives of the minor roles, Ines, and Don Gaspare, and the three scarecrows who formed the chorus were simply ludicrous. The ironical cheers and laughter which sl- ways grested these gentlemen were invaria- bly well received, the "artistes "evidently looking upon the whole affair as a good joke. And so it was, so far as they were
concerned.
