Ease Last Night

Mr Tucker's second recital at the Empire Theatre last night attracted once more a large and responsive audience. The programme was rather more interesting than the first one in that it con- tained some lesser known but extremely beautiful operatic arias, and a few great favourites such as "M'Appari" from Flotow's Martha and “All hail, thou dwelling pure and holy" from Gounod's
