NEW SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
(conducted by LANDON RONALD) zz-inch record 5s. 6d.
2-0561 Judex "Mors et Vita" Gounod
G OUNOD'S operatic achievements some- what overshadow
his other works. Yet the
composer of "Faust "
wrote as successfully and earnestly in the sacred vein. His setting of the Ave Maria ranks with Schubert's and will echo on through the ages.
Landon Ronald His sacred work "Mors Camera Portrait by Hoppe
et Vita " (Death and Life) contains a very impressive page in the Judex excerpt, which Landon Ronald has chosen to perpetuate in this glowing record.
The spirit of melancholy which necessarily per- vades music dealing with so profound a subject is tinged at times with rays of hope that make
the reproduction one of effective and artistic contrast.
The melody is simple and sweeping. The
orchestration is organ-like in effect, preserving the atmosphere of the work. The flow of the
music is natural and spontaneous, revealing Gounod at the height of his powers as composer of simple and direct music-drama.
The matchless tone of the strings of the New Symphony Orchestra is heard in all its glorious roundness in this performance.
Passages, or rather interpolations, for brass instruments occur with the arresting effect peculiar to the introduction of the motifs in Parsifal. There is real feeling in the way these bars are played and conducted. The serene flow of the music is brought to a close with poignant notes from the harp, followed by an Amen-like phrase of restful beauty.
Landon Ronald and his artist-company have here given us work of grand feeling. The re- production is sympathetic and faithful. (Speed 80)

In truth, the singer makes a peculiarly - happy choice in this selection, as the floating, ethereal passages which give the song its vernal atmosphere could be executed by few other sopranos to-day with quite the same insouciance and apparent ease.While
one enjoys the song for its delightful flow and melodic charm, this performance is, moreover, a study in the art of breathing. Such effortless vocal leaps are a miracle.
In the elaborate cadenza which Miss \Voodman introduces there is a display of vocal gymnastics that holds one spellbound. No coloraturist of Grand Opera could surpass the ease and skill of delivery.Withal,
there is that delightful pastoral tone- colour with which the soprano invests so en- chantingly a song of this kind. (Speed 78)

The serenade is sun4 with all that fire and in--

No matter how often one hears the high notes of the great Italian, one experiences unfailingly the thrill of first hearing. That silken tone and rich timbre magnetise one.
To essay a description of the singing were to
attempt the impossible. There is but one Caruso in the flesh, although his thousands of records are each a Caruso. (Speed 78)

N O greater recording achievement stands to
our credit than the performance of the complete Bach Double Concerto in D minor

It is no mean feat to secure the presence together

Their joint performance shows the intricacies of this great work in the most interesting guise. The

Nuremberg student, Hoffmann, had three love adventures, which he relates to the bosom friends gathered in the tavern. The first two adventures concerned Olympia and Guilietta respectively : the third, Antonia.
This young singer has become the victim of consumption. Forbidden to sing by her father, she is urged on to sing in Hoffmann's presence by a Svengali-like Dr. Miracle ; in this song she literally sings herself to death and dies in Hoffmann's arms.
