Impressions Of Opera Festival (This is the fourth of the European music festivals which Prof. and Mrs. Butler are attending this summer and which Prof.

Butler is reporting to The Statesman readers. He is associate professor of piano at Willamette University and covers important musical events for The Statesman.) By STANLEY BUTLER Statesman Music Critic MUNICH, Germany In recent years the opera festival given by the Bavarian State Opera Company in Munich during August has established itself as one of Europe's fine music festivals. We have had the opportunity of hearing Mozart's Marriage of Figaro and his The Abduction from the Seraglio, Wagner's Tannhauser, and Ariadne on Naxos by Richard Strauss. Let me summarize reactions to the singers, to the types of operas, and to the two theaters where these four operas were given. Devotees of opera often have! the greatest interest in knowing their singers.

Perhaps you do know the names of Claire Watson, Karl Kohn, Erika Koth and Richard Holm. These singers had lead roles in the operas seen. It can't be denied that singers with international reputations like Leonie Rysanek or Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau made the deepest impressions. Yet those first named, together with others in supporting roles, were completely adequate. Members of Resident Opera One suspects that most of them in Munich.

Like the utility infielder are members of resident opera or the relief pitcher, how important they are to the life of a community organization, And wouldn't we be much richer if could have a resident opera company? Even if it had to be in Portland. No matter that we're hearing no great singers some of time. The four operas heard showed that musical drama may be presented with either music always present, (Wagner and less so, Strauss) or else secondary or completely absent, (Mozart). With the Mozart it was a revelation how expressive was the quick patter of words in the recitatives, where music almost stands still. Or there were times when the words were spoken.

Then, when the music did re-enter, one was certain it would be important, and one could even sit back with eyes shut to enjoy the music alone. Music Always Present With Wagner music is always present. I must confess that cause the music is always sounding, and so characteristically intense, I sometimes find myself not hearing anything at all, even amidst great clatter, Strauss, coming later, in the 20th century, seemed to combine these two ways in which music may be used in opera. It was a marvel how the singers could shift from conversation into singing without introductions from the orchestra. Wagner's Tannhauster was given in the Prinzregenten Theater, built in 1900.

It is like the Bayreuth Theater, in that there is a sunken orchestra pit and the seats are arranged as in an amphitheater, with no aisles. Particular mention must be made of the en enchanting Cuvillies Theater, where the Mozart and Strauss per as were heard. This has recently been redecorated, after war, in its original rococo style. Here plain surfaces are dissolved by gilded scrolls and tiny stucco figures into the not-quite-real atmosphere that seems to be, appropriately enough, a part of any music by Mozart. No Time on Tickets The above impressions must be qualified by vicissitudes caused either 'by the ignorance of firsttime travellers to Europe or the peculiarities of Europe's ways, depending upon one's point of view.

Twice we missed first acts, because it appears there is a custom of beginning performances at different times (even as early as six o'clock in the evening) so that they will end at about the same time, contrary to our practice. No performance time is printed on the ticket. (Late-comers are not seated until there is an inter. mission, a practice I think we might adopt), So, there are many ways in which we behave, and it has been good learn about a few more.
