Madame Butterfly — Fantasie. (Puccini) Sorlin Butterfly’s Vision — W curing Motive — Entrance of Butterfly. Three of the most beautiful passages in this fascinating Puccini opera have been com¬ bined in this attractive fantasie by Mr. Sorlin, who i6 one of New York’s most famous 'cellists. The themes used are the last part of Butterfly ’s “ Song of Devotion" in Act 11, sometimes called the “Vision Song"; the mournful but beautiful “ Waiting Motive,” played by the orchestra as Butterfly, with her child and faithful maid, takes her place at the window to watch through the mght for Pinkerton ’s coming. This motive, which is also sung by a distant chorus with a peculiarly charming and mystenous effect, is one of the composer’s happiest inspirations. The pizzicati passages on the violin which accompany this strange melody are most effectively given by the orchestra. The fantasie closes with the bright and joyous strain which accompanies the entrance of Butterfly in Act I. Melody in F (Rubinstein) Bourdon Nocturne in E Flat ( Opus 9) (Chopin) Bourdon Of all Chopin’s tender and dreamy nocturnes, none perhaps is so surpassingly beautiful as this composition.
