Many New Singers, Pianists and Violinists to Rush Across the Seas. ny Pierre V. It. Key. New York, June 80. The gleaners are getting ready for their annual harvest of good American dollars. The foreign Invasion of Europe's musical coloDy Is at hand. How. much cash will they carry home with them when the approaching season, soon to open, is over? Judging by past experiences

it will be several millions. ' The golden glitter of coin stamped with Uncle Sam's mark will flash in many a country that is sure. And singers, pianists, violinists and others with long hair and the dreamy-eyed expression will smile after the harvest and pain for the next picking. Music lovers of Hammond. whose favorable opinion is valued by mancgers to the same extent as they are by the artists themselves, will be given abundant opportunity during the coming season to pass upon the qualifications of many of these musical newcomers and to renew their acquaintance with mu sicians who have been heard at various times in America during the last half dozen years. Efram Zimballst. a violinist credited with having caused fine impressions in England and on the continent, will make his first appearances In this country before long. He is described as a player of the Frits Kreisler type, with a fine If not large tone, a fluent technique and a straightforward manner. His work will be wholly different from that of Mischa Elman, who is not to return this fall. Jan Kubelik, whose sensational successes in previous years will be long remembered, is announced to arrive here in the autumn after a four-year's absence. He is reported to have gained in artistic breadth which, if true. Should give us some music distinctly worth while. Kathleen Parlow, the young Canadian violinlste whose triumphs of the 'season but recentlyclosed were little short of spectacular, likewise will make a wide tour. Among the singers to cross the Atlantic to make debuts in 1311-12 will be

JCetnrich Well, the German operatic baritone; Margarette Slatienaucr, a European contralto of whom excellent

reports are heard; the American bari

tone, Putnam Grlswold, who won his

opera spurs In various parts of Europe,

and Helnrich Hensel, a German tenor whose musical achievements In his own land have brought him fame. AH these singers Join the Metropolitan Opera

Company.

Maggie Teyte, an English soprano who has sung Mary Garden's roles abroad with conspicuous success, will

be a member of the Philadelphla-Chl

cngo Opera Company, and like the four Metropolitan recruits she will devote much of her time to concerting. Miss

Teyte, it is stated, will bo a full-fledged

rival to Miss Garden. If this should transpire General Manager Andreas IMppel will have his troubles in keeping the operatic waters surrounding his organization In a state of tran

quility.

Frieda Hempel, the coloratura star of the Berlin Royal Opera, may be giv

en a leave of absence by Emperor "Wil

llam to 'sing a few performances in

New Tork at the Metropolitan Opera. In this event she will be begged to consent to a short concert tour because ehe is admittedly one of the great lyrlr.

and florid sopranos of the day.

Two great tenors who thrill metro

politan audiences, Ijeo Blezak, the Czech, and Rlccardo Martin, greatest of alt American high-voiced, will pour forth their tones in concert; the former on 15 occasions, the later before 20 assemblages. Caruso, too, will again try to keep concert engagements that are being made for him. Caruso's friend

and colleague. Pasquale Amato, first of

living baritones, will begin his initial

recital appearances in the United

States in early October.

Mme. Emma Eames, the classic

beauty, and Emllio de Gogorza, the

baritone, whose mutual heart-beatings

are reported to be in sympathetic ac

cord, will appear In Joint recitals for

the first time In two seasons. Mmes

Nordica, Rchumann-Heink, Frances

Alda, (wife of the metropolitan man ager, Glullo Gattl-Casazza) Alice Niei

sen. Alma Gluck, Mario Sammarco and

Charles Imlmores have all contracted

to appear on the concert platform.

So too have other operatic luminaries

among them the distinguished Spanlsti

tenor heading the Boston Opero Com

pany, Florencio Constantino. Ludwig

Hess, a tenor from the other side

makes his debut In Milwaukee, and

Ellison Van Hose, a native of this land

will sound his tenor voice here for the

first time in many a year. Charles "W,

Clark, whose recent emphatic successes In the east and west following his long

residence in Paris commanded the at tention of all musical people, come

back 'for a long list of concerts in

Tanuarv. Clifford Cairns, a rising

young basso, is to be more than ordi

narilv busy.

Only one pianist new to our audi

ences will ask first-time consideration

He Is Wilhelm Bachaus, an Englishman

with a German-sounding name, and a

bill fittiner a pre-eminent virtuoso.

Vladimir de Pachmann, the Chopin in terpreter who loves to play "monkey .hir, has elected to make a "fare

well" tour, while Josef Lhevinne

sterling artist. Is again scheduled afte

a three-years' campaign in- Europe

Josef Hofmann is not returning. There

will be only three 'cellists to contes

for supremacy ; ' Paulo Gruppe. the young Dutchman whose future is brilliant. Boris Hambourj and a youthful German ufcmed Bruch ' proclaimed a marvel.
