This is the day of American success in Europe. Readers may have noted several recent instances of American artists doing well abroad. Musical art on the older continent has run down disastrously. In Central Europe, favorite field of the muse, all singers and musicians who are so fortunate as to be able to do so take themselves to countries with decent exchange rates-above all to the golden U.

...shall not regret the passing of the Lexington Avenue Opera House as a temple of the muse. Its acoustics were bad; the orchestra sounded overloud and seemed to be almost a veil between the singers and the audience.
