Many of the duets and trios were especially enjoyed and most of them were accompanied by artistic dances which added much to the general attractiveness at-tractiveness of the opera. The suc-( suc-( ess of the opera was especially due to the efforts of Miss Edna Hardy, who spent much time and energy in the coaching of it. The Moroni Orchestra Or-chestra handled the accompaniments ery ably. On the whole, the presentation pre-sentation of "The Lass of Limerick Town," with its Irish costuming and scenery, was a great success both , artistically and financially. |
