Tonight at 8.15 o'clock in the Payne Concert Hall, Charles D. Isaacson will speak on "How to Listen Intelligently to Opera." The lecture has been arranged by Professor W. R. Spalding '87, of the Music Department, who believes that one cannot fully enjoy grand opera without a certain amount of previous preparation. The lecture will be illustrated by having an opera singer give some of the better known operas followed by a brief resume of the story of the opera.
His lecture is in anticipation of the performances at the Boston Opera House of the San Carlo Opera Company this week with which he is associated. He will speak at Boston University, M. I. T. and Tufts College as well as at the University. Approximately 50 organizations of all kinds, industries, retail houses and clubs will hear him during the week.
The lecture is open to the public but seats will be reserved for students until 8 o'clock on the main floor of the Hall.
