BOYS' CHOIR FROM VIENNA
VERSATILE YOUNG CHORISTERS. There is no class of citizen that would not enjoy the singing of the Vienna Boys’ Choir. The charm of their voices is irresistible, and their selections are highly attractive, whether sacred, secular or comic. During their remarkably successful season in. Sydney and Melbourne large audiences have applauded the young artists, redemanding their solos and part-songs, and then asking for more. But the most general appeal is made by the operettas of Haydn, Mozart, Schubert and others, in which the boys appear successfully in varied roles. The chief “girl” is a bewitching young thing up to all the alluring arts and devices of “his” kind. “She” is a beautiful creature, fair to behold, a graceful and expressive singer, delighting all by her heauty of tone and musical style. There are no dummies in the choir; each boy is a capable singer and a trained actor. The 18 can carry off an. eight-part song with accuracy and zest. No one without attending a performance could imagine young artists be-* ing found able in the presentation of opera to be the great masters. J.overs of music, youth and beauty should not miss the concert of the Vienna Boys’ Choir, which will be given in the Wanganui Opera House next Thursday evening. Plans are now open at the D.I.C.
