MUSICAL NOTES.

[By Counterpoint]

THE CHINA MAIL.

I received a letter, last Saturday morning, from Podolsky. He tells me that he is going to Sumatra to play for Miss Mirova, a well-known Russian classic dancer who has been creating quite a sensation, in the FMS., and other parts of the East. He also informs me that the Russian Opera Company, which scored such signal success in Shanghai, has been adding to its laurels to Tokio. The Company intends to visit Hongkong in the near future.

By a conlcidence, on the same morning I received a call from M. Bogumil Sykora, who was passing through the Colony on the way to Manila. Sykora informed me that his season in Sumatra was phenomen- ally successful. He played at 48. different places and 50 different selections from 56 composers.

•

典

When it is borne in mind that all these pieces have to be worked "up and played from memory some Idea of the work entailed may be gained. Here is a list of some of the com- posers included in Sykora's reper- toire...

Ariosti, Bach J. S., Bach. Ch. Ph. E, Beethoven. Haydn, Mozart, Gluck, Handel, Eccless, Boccherini, Lotti, Campagnoli, Tartini, Vientinl Prune, Tschaikowski, Moussorgski, Gläzounoff, Ippolitoff, Ivanoff, Gretchonisof, Rachmaninoff, Cui, Gliere. Arensky, Davidoff. Muert, Tschernoff, Chodarowski, Fitzen- hagen, Rubinstein, Piatti, Saint Saens, Volkmann, Boellmann, Kiengel, Faure, Brahms, Fibich, Dvorak, Schumann, Mann, Abas, Satz, Roever, Popper, Sykora, Jeral, Grieg. Bruch, Casella and Chopla.

I learn that Piastro (cello) and Mirovitch (piano) have parted com- pany, as bave Sykora and Podolsky. All however, have been playing to ¡ big houses in various parts of the

East.

I cannot understand why some people who write criticisms in the local press of vocalists who perform here from time to time, do not take the trouble to find out the correct range of the particular singer dealt with (they apparently are not able to tell by hearing). One paper, the other day, called Mrs. A. O. Brawn, who sang at the social" at St. Andrew's Church Hall, a couple of weeks ago, a soprano. Her voice is mezzo soprano. +

A New York paper states that German opera cannot be rendered in New York City prior to the ratification of the peace treaty. That was the decision of Mr. Justice Giegerich.
