" Clair MK-rii iiii,ieC?iWB 0luck Hubert Wlle y'JJ Hubbsrd Kllratrlrk . lsf'ii, lloalt West, Tsui Alberton 'Sophie" Is the fanllllar tltlo of the latest play by Philip Moeller, produced at the Greenwich Village Theatre last night. The work Is Itself familiar, so the name .Is not out of Its key. Tht three acts are taken from the private 1.1,' ver' Private life of the famous fiOPhlo Arnould who played an Impor tant part In tho chapter of musical his tory that Inoludes the Introduction of Gluck's operas lo tho world. Tho so prono "created," as tho world of the cabotln puts It, the heroine of "Iphlgenle en Aullde." Tho scenes of the drama, Indeed, cluster about this artuitio achievement. But It is only the frou frou of her stago life that one hears In the play. It Is the heart of Mile. Sophie .rather than the vocal cords which seem to have been uncommonly efltclent even for the professional beauties of that gal lant era that Inspires the drama. Mr, Moeller liai made a wise selection of a new puppet from the past of French history who could do Justice to the Mooller Idiom. The singer, -who seems to have been devoted to so much more than her art, Is a picturesque and alluring figure. How truly historical this document does not appear, although It Is said that the llfo of tho noted origi nal might havo supplied Inspiration to many playwrights. Mr. Moeller hos, however, endowed her with many traits traditionally associated with the operatic character, A Day In Sopble'a Life. She Is foun1 when the play begins In her drawing room, which happens to be In the palace of tho Austrian Ambas. sador, and there she stays during tho play, whlah is not so singular as It sounds when one knows that she has settled herself there for reasons of pot Icy connected with the. first performance of Cluck's pptra, She did not win tho honor of singing the music of Its heroine without a struggle which would have been accounted unconventional to-day Ir, operatic methods. But her eojourn in the embassy is declared to be quite as Innocent of evil as that famous version of "La Dame aux Camellias," once popu. lar in Boston, In which the two lovers were vaguely referred to as engaged. It Is when tho Ambassador Insists on a Change In the arrangement that whnt might under other circumstances be de'J perinea ns tne "plot" pf the play bealni' uui it is cucn a little plot that It neither Interferes with the revelation of Sophie's many Interests nor Mr. Mocller's polished langunge. There is a great deal of Mr. Moeller' language and It Is all highly polished. It has. more over, the merit of sounding very much the same whoever may speak it. Mis Steven a French Staffer. It fell to Miss Emily Stevens to rein carnate for this day the brilliant' favorite of eighteenth century Paris. She can deliver the Moeller dialogue with the swiftness and point that rlv it rff she can even make It or any other speech incomprenensioio if necessary. " Tho lupous ana aiiectations of the prima donna are also well suited to her powers. Luckily the slnglntr and sneaklne vnirn are pot always similar, else It might n aiuicuii to explain the mus -cal fame of this heroine. Mr. Moeller' latest play Is Inferior to "i V?0.. '?ne?r works tha Preceded it. hopnie Is by no means without dis tinction. The Intrigue, however, is trivial, too trivial to persuade tho.au- mence into any sense of Illusion.. U all wemea iiKo opera oourto until Adolf Llnlt appeared; then It seemed well, like something else. There Is less wit mun usual in mo lines, which are highly overecxuallzed and constantly roveal how doggedly the author stalked the double meaning. . . p Heggle was a singular choice ror the ardent lover. He acted llko a man warning m nis sicen and conscious only of the hope that tho play was bound to end soon and that ho would be well out of it then. As an Impudent lackey Sidney Toler nearly burst with the knowledge that ho had one ot tho best parts in the play and was bound to mako an Impression. This too obvious certainty interfered with the impression no micni nave maae, Hubert wllko avo a graphic portrait of Oluck. Some ay h8 will play Richard Wnener nnd make a fortune. After all. a nroflle helps at any age. Link exaggerated grotesquely the role of the Austrian diplomat Georgo C Tyler, who produced the play, had supplied an exqulslto boudoir In eighteenth century style, and Miss Helen Dryden designed some beautiful dresses ot that period. But Mr. Tyler showed his managerial cenlus In select ing the comparative seclusion of Green wich village for the play. PLAYS SUITE BY MOOR. Chamber Mnslc Society Presents Interesting Programme. The second concert or the New York Chamber Music Society tcok nlace last evening In Aeolian Hall. The programme consisted of Emanuel Modi's suite In A major for double quintet. Salnt-Saens's caprice on Russian and Danish alra for piano, flute, oboe and clarinet, and the Brahma piano quartet In O minor. Eman uel Moor Is a composer who exercises a strange fascination upon chamber music organizations, a fascination which docs not often extend Itself to audiences. The composition heard last evenlmr Is written for string quintet and a wind quintet, consisting of flute, oboe, clari net, horn and Dassoon. it Is music of the study, carefully wrought, balanced, smooth, perfectly respectable and iren- erally soporlfle. The capable artists en gaged In Its performance did sot appear to be thrilled by their task but man fully persisted tin with the slow march of time the end was reached and the audlenco indulged in polite approval. mere was more joy over the two other compositions. Tho work of Salnt-Saens Is by no means as familiar as that of Brahms, but, llko all the creations of the French master. It Is melodious and pleasing. Both works were commenda- bly played. .
