Br Olays M.Perow Sal.-cburg, Austria; Augut 18, 1935ý Historic Salzburg may well be called, the mostpopular host in aIl of Europe, at th is %date. Drawn here by the ex- cellence rof. both musical ar t and scen ic1 panorama, Salzburg's hundreds of guests for the 1935 "Festspiele" i n- clude nationalities of both -East and West. British, Chinese, Indians, Hun- garians, French, Rus.sians, and Ameni- cans present both, picturesque and lin- guistic contrasts in the throngs'that gather for opera and concert in the 'Festspielhausý or.the Mozarteumn. uFidelionis FIawIest The recent performance of "Fidelio,"' Beethoven's two-act opera. immedi- ately classified itself as a fiawless- per- formnance under the baton of Arturo Toscaninii." Beginning wlth the E major "Leonore'" overture, the fine points of tihe relationsbip between the famous, Italiain conductor who speaks neither English, nor German, and the Vienna. Philharmonic orchestra be- camne increasingly evident.' Upon the stage, the artistic .m ent of *"Fidelio' , was likewise. collective, rather than individual. The entire cast which in- cluded Lotte Lehmann in the.role of the faithful Leonora (Fidelio); And- reas von Rosier as Florestan; Alfred Jerger as Dôn Pizartro, and Emanuel List* as Don Fernando, nefiected the artistic finesse long associated withi Festspiele performances. The audi- ence that evening wil not soon for- get, however, the -superlative quality of Mme. . Lehmann' voice, and dra- matic abiiity. -Her inferpretation of "Fide.lio'" was -more than adequate for. the. beauty of Beethoven 's score. * Chagd Opera Fr.quutly The story in bnief concernis the struggle of the devoted Leonora to free her husband Flonestan from the prison where he has been put away bvhu is nUlta l .Do izairo It.

The baicony which stretches around three sides, is fash- ioned of thick brown wood, relieved at intervals with quaint wood carvings. These, littie figures assume a 'variety of poses -and moods. The gallery. in whicli evening dress, may be frequent- ly seen, since tickets are so scarce for the Festspiele performances, i tucked away in the rear, close to the ceiling. The main foor is unca rpeted and the seats plain, but ail is in keep- the Salzach river, to the Cate lBazar.
