Emma Calve and Signor Gasparri

Singing.
Aria from "Tosca," "Carmen" and a duet from 'Faust."
Calve was given a big ovation and received tremendous applause after her 'Carmen" and other selections.
Calve drew a full house Monday afternoon and indications are the Majestic will play to capacity the entire week. While a large number came for the sole purpose of hearing Calve warble, they were also rewarded by hearing the splendid tenor voice of Signor Gasparri. The Signor is the first to make his appearance with an aria from "Tosca." He was forced to do an encore, which delayed the entrance of the prima donna. They closed with a duet from "Faust" to a big hit.
