Rich, Warm and Golden Voice Heard
In Mme. de /os Angeles' Recital
~. By Elena de Sayn
Not In years has a singer’s voice
so completely captivated her au
dience as did that of Victoria de
jlos Angeles, Spanish soprano of
the Metropolitan Opera, who
made her local debut in Constitu
tion Hall last night.
Her voice is of pure gold, easily
produced and perfectly placed, ex
quisite in texture and sound, rich
in warmth and beauty. Her sing
ing stirred by its moving quality,
and went straight to the heart.
Her art is unostentatious and
sincere.
Mme. de los Angeles has a
Charming stage presence, unas
suming and dignified. She does
not use theatrical gestures, does
not play up to the emotions of
her audience, nor has she re
course to spectacular high notes
to win applause. Yet encore upon
encore followed after the formal
program ended, until the artist
sang her final number to her owb
accompaniment on the Spanish
guitar.
The recital, built on conven
tional lines, contained Italian,
German, French and Spanish
songs, given in their original lan
guages. Many of these were a
revelation in the art of presenta
tion so true to their native char
acteristics, or to the individuality
of the composer.
The unfamiliar “Recitative and
Aria of Messenger,” from Monte
verdi’s “Orpheus,” which opened
the recital, 'was something of a
musical declamation, intensified in
effect by the gorgeous sound that
poured out from Mme. de los An
geles throat. No other song
brought out to the same Extent
the special loveliness of the sing,
er’s chest tones, those of a woman
in the prime of her development
as an artist and a musician.
Scarlatti’s “La Violette,” written
in a higher tessitura, emphasized
the flexibility of her delivery. The
crown of achievement in this line
was “Oh, Had I Jubal’s Lyre,”
from Handel’s “Joshua,” sung in
English.
That a Spanish singer should
Senanayake's Son Agrees
To Take Helm in Ceylon
ty th. Associated Press
COLOMBO, Ceylon, Mar. 26.
Dudley Senanayake today agreed
to succeed his father as Prime
Minister of Ceylon.
The 41-year-old son of the late
Don Stephen Senanayake, vet
eran Ceylonese statesman and the
British Commonwealth country’s,
first and only prime minister, had
refused earlier to take the post'
left vacant when his father died;
Saturday of injuries suffered In
a fall from a horse.
Today, however, he bowed to
the urging of his father’s United
National Party, the dominant fac
tion.
The younger Mr. Senanayake is j
due to serve uhtil elections are
held in about six months.
be conversant with other Latin
, languages would seem natural, but
\ to hear a perfect German was
\ something of a surprise. As per
; feet was ter interpretation and
' style of Schumann’s “Widmung,”
“Der Nussbaum" and “Ich Grolle
Nicht” Each was given the nu
ance, inflection, phrasing and
r color in true German manner,
' with a diction which seemed to
1 surpass the others in clarity.
The reverential “En Priere,” by
[ Faure; his “Fleur Jetee,” Ravel’s
I “Kaddish” and the variety of
songs in the Spanish group, con
-1 sisting of numbers by Nin, Guridi,
| de Falla and Turina, were a dem
, onstratlon of the artist’s lnex
' haustible means for tone color
and expression. If some of her
1 high tones had a tendency to
| sharpness and over pressure this
1 was the only flaw in what was
' otherwise a recital that combined
1 a superb natural medium with the
1 spontaneity which belongs to true
vocal art.
Paul Berl, at the piano, was not
. an ideal accompanist, lacking the
i tone quality to complement the
- voice, though proficient on the
i technical side.
