THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Mme. Homer Will Be Remembered for “Mother Goose” and “How’s My Boy?”

By WALTER D. HICKMAN mN my memoty box today is tucked away a simple little gem. When a youngster I arrived at the conclusion that the Mother Goose rhymes were really music. Last night hundreds of people who filled every inch of space at Caleb Mills Hall upplauded “Mother Goose” in song as rendered by Mme. Louise Homer. , Sidney Homer, the husband of the singer, is responsible for the melody. I will remember this Homer concert because of “Mother Goose and a dramatic bit in song, “How’s My J Boy?” also by. Sidney Homer. It was during this dramatic hedrt number that Mme. Homer carried her audience to that realm of dramatic musical delight which one dreams about but seldom roaches. The “boy” number received 1 the greatest ovation of an exquisite evening of song. “Les Larmes" from “Werther” stood out as a real accomplishment. but somehow or other the simple English songs were the outstanding features of a wonder'll evening. The aria from “Samson and Delilah” was another high spot of fkc recital, but give me “Pilgrim’s Song,” “The Lark Now Leaves His Wat’ry Nest,” “The Day Is No More” and “Love Went a-Rkllng,” and I will ask for no more. Madame Homer is essentially dramatic. Years on the operatic stage has made her an actress as well as a great singer. She knows her concert stage. Singers on the concert stage would do well to study this woman’s stage presence and observe her walk. So few women on the stage today know how to walk correctly. Th Federation of Indianapolis Public School Teachers had the honor of presenting Madame Homer as the first number of their course. I must state that Madame Homer was most gracious in the number of encores. Evenwhen the concert was concluded, the big audience lingered for more And they were not disappointed. A glorious evening of song, Madame Homer. -I- -I- -IInteresling Method of Presenting Opera it: Recital The Jorep i R. Gordon Woman's Relief Corps No. 43 of this city was instrumental in bringing Havrali Hubhard, opcraloguist, and his music accompanist. Homer Simmons, who gave a very' interesting program last night at the assembly hall at the Clay pool Hotel to a small and select audience, which appreciated to the full the two operalogues, "The Love of Three Kings," by Benelii. with music by Montemczzl, and "Haensel and Gretel,” the fairy oiera by Humperdinck. Hubbard was for many years music critic of the Chicago Tribune and his dramatic portrayal in tabloid form of these operas was well received by the audience. To give a tong program like this with full lights on is a strain on the eyes, and it might be an improvement to give the bill with the house lights off. It would also Intensify the work on the platform. Tonight Eugen D’Albert’s opera, “The Dead Eyes,” will be given for the first time All lovers of opera will be interested In this work, as this Is the opera that Is being featured this season by the Wagnerian Opera Company.
