Bunting went downstairs, and as she did so she took herself wordlessly, ruthlessly to task, but she did not face even in her inmost heart the strange tenors and tremors which had so shaken her. She only repeated to herself again and again, "I've got upset that's what I've done," and then she spoke aloud, "I must get myself a dose at the chemist's next time I'm out. That's what I must do."
It is just the outward, healthy stir that goes before certain kinds of theatrical success, and which is quite impossible where most other arts are concerned; perhaps I suggest it with apologies to all living prima donnas and first tenors the higher the art, the less can success be predicted.
Pauline Garcia marries M. Viardot, a Well-known Litterateur. A Tour through Southern Europe. She creates a Distinct Place for herself in the Musical Art. Great Enthusiasm in Germany over her Singing. The Richness of her Art Resources. Sketches of the Tenors, Nourrit and Duprez, and of the Great Barytone, Ronconi. Mine. Viardot and the Music of Meyerbeer.
At any time any opera house would have been proud of two such tenors as Caruso and Bonci, or of two such sopranos as Melba and Tetrazzini, while there is no period in which a Sembrich would not have been a rara avis.
I loved that absurd court with the wailing notes of sopranos and tenors, the rattling of pianos, the blasts of trumpets and trombones, the arpeggios of clarinets, all uniting to form that ultra-polyphone which some of our composers have tried to attain but without success.
Marjorie was to get her hat, as they must be going in a moment, he announced, happily unconscious of the scorching glance from the region of the tenors, and would Elsie sing "Abide With Me" before he left? The girl arose and went to the organ.
You know the session said so." It was well for Polly that she was too big to have her ears boxed. Even so, it might not have saved her if they had been anywhere else than in church. Meanwhile the men who were sitting in the choir three basses and two tenors were beginning to dimly suspect that there was something amiss here too. Where were the sopranos and the altos?
After an absence of three years Mme. Pasta returned to England, and her opening performance of Medea was aided by the talents of Rubini, Lablache, and Fanny Ayton. Rubini performed the character of Egeus, and the duets between the king of tenors and Pasta were so remarkable in a musical sense as to rival the dramatic impression made by her great acting.
and the baritones, flinging themselves around with the looseness of Christy's Minstrels, in a "break down," would reply: "Don't tell me! Don't tell me!" Then the tenors would resume: "Says I, Ole man, your horse'll die." Then the baritones, with an air of exaggerated interest; "A-ha-a-a, Billy Patterson!" Tenors: "For. It he dies, I'll tan his skin; An' if he lives I'll ride him agin,"
And so, under his guidance, the Jesuits had increased their orchestra and employed the best tenors that could be hired. Nevertheless, their progress was slow. Father Gordon pleaded patience. The neighbourhood was unfashionable; it was difficult to persuade their friends to come so far. Mr.
