AN OPERATIC SOPRANO

Dusolina Giannini, the operatio soprano, who made a meteoric as- cent in 1923, when she took the place of a famous artist at very short notice, will be a great attrac- tion in Australia this year. Miss Giannini has a voice of remarkable

beauty, and she is a singer equally at ease in dramatic or lyric scenes, Handel's arias, or ancient and modern songs of all nations. A& Aida, Santuzza, Butterfly, Tosca, and in other roles, Giannini has appeared in most of the Continen- tal opera houses, in America, and at Covent Garden, London, with success, and she combines with her vocal gift an intense dramatic ins tinct. She is decidedly of the Latin type, and was born in Philadelphia, of Italian parents.

Ab, yes; all sections of the or- chestra so deliver their allotted melodies and harmonies in a man- ner that interlaces, not only with fine technical clarity, but with, ex- pressive meaning. Song and coun- ter-song, and all the embroideries, so beautifully wrought by Bach, sing to the listener perfectly and especially when under the personal spel of a Stokowski. There is no. doubt that this development will effect, to a very great extent, an understanding and appreciation of Johann Sebastian Bach.

Two years ago he appeared at a Philharmonie con- cert in Vienna, directed by Richard Strauss, as which the com poser's "Burleske for piano and orchestra was one of the features of the programme, The pianist was awarded high praise in the Viên- neas papers for his share in this per- formance, and particularly for the colour which he imparted to the piano part. He has since played with great success in Rome, Milan, Venice, and other centres of Italy,
