NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
Boston OPERA HovusrE 
The premiere of Wolf-Ferrari’s 
“The Jewels of the Madonna,” an 
event which is being awaited with 
ore cagerncess than any other among 
the several promised for this season 
at the Boston Opera House, is now 
definitely set for Friday evening, Jan. 
17. Hitherto, in the year since it first 
saw the footlights, the work has been 
sung only in Chicago, Philadelphia 
and’ New York on iis continent, for 
previously it has belonged only to the 
repertory of the Chicago Opera Com- 
pany. In Germany, Italy and Eng- 
land it has won most enviable success 
and next summer will witness its in- 
troduction to Paris, when Miss Gar- 
den will create Maliella, a role which 
might have been hers if she had 
thought it worth while, when Mr. 
Dippel first staged the opera in Chi- 
cago. 
Just as the composer, himself the 
offspring of a German-Italian mar- 
riage, combines the two nationalities 
in his temperamental make-up, so 
does the opera incline toward the rich 
modern harmonies of German opera 
in its orchestration, while at the sane 
ti-e retaining a flow of melody dis- 
tinctly Italian. For this reason it has 
an ecualily strong appeal to the adher- 
ents of either faction. In Berlin

Wolf-Ferrari has been accused of 
being too Italian and in Italy his 
Tuetonic tendencies have been de- 
clared to be the strongly predominat- 
ing ones. 
Again as was the case in “Louise” 
the street scenes call for a very long 
cast of characters and almost the en- 
tire strength of the organization will 
appear. 
The other bills for the week are: 
Monday, Jan. 13, “‘Pelleas et Mel- 
isande” with Mmes. Edvina, Gay and 
Fisher and-MM. Riddez, Lankow and 
Mardones; Wednesday Jan. 15, first 
subscription performance of “Car- 
men” with Mme. Gay in the title role, 
Miss Donner as Micaela and MM. 
Zonatello and Mardones. In response 
to a general request that ‘“Haensel 
und Gretel” be repeated at an after- 
noon performance it will be given 
again on Saturday matinee in con- 
junction with “Cavalleria Rusticana.” 
The popular performance on Satur- 
day evening will be given over to 
“Aida.” Miss Elizabeth Amsden will 
sing the name part. 
“Sat, From Boston,” 
“Sail from Boston—But First See 
New England” is the title of a very 
beactive folder just issued by the 
New England Lines for the purpose 
of making better known to the peo- 
ple of New England, the middle West 
and the Provinces the advantages of 
Boston as a port of departure for 
trans-atlantic travelers. 
The folder tells why you should 
sail from Boston—why Boston is the 
logical as well as the most delightful 
port of departure for those who are 
planning to go abroad. 
It also sets forth the wonderful fas- 
cination of a journey across New 
Engiand to Boston. It pictures the 
loveliness of New England lakes, 
mountains, countryside and sea coast 
as you see them from the car window 
on the way to Boston. 
It is full of information about the — 
Boston steamship lines. It gives the 
sailing schedules of these lines and 
contains an excellent map in colors of 
of the routes. 
Much stress is laid on the fact that 
time is saved by sailing from or to 
Boston—that Boston is 190 miles 
nearer Europe than other great 
American cities. Thus the traveler 
saves nearly 12 hours’ time. ‘That 
means a good deal if you are in a 
hurry to get to Europe or don’t like 
the sea. 
Copies of this folder may be ob- 
tained by addressing Room 475.
