ANO THER TRIUMPH.
hen abella Ott-Penetto sang Eili, Eili to a probably 100 per cent.
Jewi h audience at the crowded City Hall on W dne day night, one knew that the trials of our peopl had not robbed them of aural sensitivity and appreciation.
o visiting artist, endowed with the glamour of "oversea" could have re- C'eived a more heartfelt ovation than did our own Mabella.
The concert, which was in aid of the J.W.A., was probably one of the significant artistic occasions in Cape Town's musical history.
Accompanied by Mr. Geo1·ge Pulver- macher Madame Ott-Penetto sang her way, with unusual musicianship, through a varied programme, giving full play to her versatility. In Gliick's ''Che Faro Senza U ridice'' her love]y contralto voice seemed to have tears in it. Yet she never sacrifices tone to drama. Rather does she use tone to e press drama. Songs from Schu- be:rt, Brahms, Dvorak, Strauss, and
ome egro Spirituals, were included in th programme, and proved that this i a sophisticated musician who has t a depth of warmth and humanity in her singing. Still fur- ther, h prov d herself one of the few arti t in our country who can induce the public to lf11ten to a programme of songs with so much more than polit attel¥tio11.

"Ala !" was th~ reply, "She wais yond human help. I could do nothing."
''Then,'' proceeded the Rov sternly,

Zorach indignantly refuted the alle- gation. he had died of natural causes.
"Well," came the verdict, "if neitlier killed nor cured her, you can- not claim your fee."
