INIMITABLE FARRAR - SINGS HEBE NOV. 27 The inimitable Farrar, who as a star wilfully faded out of Metropolitan Opera, to spend this season In a concert tour, will appear at the Coliseum the evening of Nov. 27, under the auspices of the Woman's club. With her will be Henry Weldon, basso-can-tan te: Joseph Malkin, violin cellist, and Claude Gotthelf. pianist. - Born in New England, within the shadow of Bunker Hill, Geraldine Far rar truly represents one of the fore most examples of American acmeve ment in vocal and operatic art. Her voice in recent years, It is said, has gained in richness, warmth and ex preserve quality. With the grace or melancholy of French pieces, the highpitched emotion of Russian numbers, Italian ardors, or American playful ness, she is equally happy. Even in the concert hall she dramatizes operatic fragments so that audiences feel the character, the situation, the passion. Wild enthusiasm has greeted her concerts everywhere this year. On the western coast she has created a furore which rivals any evoked by artists in the past Singing and acting her songs as only the incomparable Farrar can she has as completely won over her audiences in concert as in "her past successes In opera. From galleries to backdrop the seats and . even standing room have been sold : at her every performance. Reports of her concerts vie with one another In ; efforts to fully depict the charm and wonder of this primadonna. GRAND JURY TO GET I HALL-MILLS FACTS - NEW BRUNSWICK. N. J..
